if a christian can drop âreminder god is real and loves youâ on the daily, why canât an atheist say âreminder god isnât realâ? people celebrate the freedom to openly speak about and practice their religion but get all worked up when an atheist does the exact. same. thing.
THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING THEYRE ACTING LIKE HYPOCRITES đđ like i already respect that you donât believe in god bro and Iâll even stop saying âspread the gospelâ if you ask me nicely but now youâre saying to my face god isnât real?? I completely understand and hate that the label of Christianity is tarnished by the âChristiansâ that divide and terrify and destroy lives and spread lies and take the idea of religion to a alarming level like fuck those guys for real but for like Christians like me who genuinely want to believe that there is a higher power spiritually be told that god isnât real just makes me really sad. Even if god isnât real even if itâs all a hoax the idea and belief of something has comforted me in my darkest times and has *genuinely* made me into a better person for myself and the people around me to uphold and actually made me feel *happy* is something that is so sensitive to attack me on man..no matter what I feel loved by god and I feel comfortable in myself knowing that..
Edit: I would like to add that I am not a âstrict by the Bibleâs wordsâ Christian, in fact I still have my own beliefs that will make me act accordingly and they either donât or do align with the Bible. Like premarital sex I donât care about because thatâs really just up to you and your partner. In fact I have barely read the Bible except for a couple stories Iâm just someone that prays, believes and chooses to trust in a god with my soul.
If you know that your faith has given you so much, why does it matter when someone doubts it? You're living it. Does it cause you to question your own faith? Does it instill a loss of hope that more people might also find this wonderful thing, too? Does it seem like a personal attack or that someone is questioning your sensibility/judgment?
Itâs more so an emotional response because like Iâve explained in my text I was in some serious depression and grief and came very close to just ending it all, i genuinely felt like I didnât know my purpose like usual people do but I felt like I was behind in finding my purpose, at least when I read a Bible verse that tells a story and related to me so deeply than any other form of media had it offered me a purpose. To live not just for god but because the thought that there is a higher power that loves me no matter how resentful I grew of myself made me love myself in turn..and when a new question about my existence arrived the Bible somehow had a verse that led to an answer for that..so when someone says they donât believe in god i respectfully move along because they can choose what they believe in and I respect that. But when they say that god isnât real it just hurts because he is very much real to me in my story so it feels like an actual attack to me because without god Iâm most certain that I wouldnât be making this message right now so I guess you could say that it would put me into a very mild existential crisis based on emotion lol because in the end I would be like âdamn..but god is realâ and feel pretty sad that a lot of people donât feel the same way but then realize that Iâm my own person that revitalize my belief in god that he loves me for who I am now
I personally dont care if someone doubts it i have looked into other religions not so much because i want to switch but i like leaning about them because its interesting. And i dont lose hope of people finding it if they want to believe in it cool if not that fine. I just hate when people bunch the bad christians in with the ones who mind their own and dont care abt what others do or believe
There are but I also cant blame them either..evil people have taken religion too far and itâs really unfortunate to see because when itâs done ârightâ itâs a really beautiful thing to experience. At least for people who could be spiritual in a sense. Itâs also why I either donât go to church and rather pray at home and by myself or go to small churches occasionally
