@Crazywaterspring I know what you mean but your comment could be taken as insulting to Pagans and Witches. ;)
Crazywaterspring · 61-69, M
@suzie1960 The people in my coven embrace it.
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@Crazywaterspring That's fair enough.

They think they have a monopoly on morality.
@Iwillwait This is not an argument worth having. It's simple upon this, she did not listen to you and instead of, projected her thoughts of your meanings. She's so taken with her anger she didn't even see it's not your post.

Really? I think we are very nice!
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@Strongtea Satanists are much nicer.

You weaken your own argument by the blanket accusation.

Arrogance is no more necessary for Christianity than it is for any other strand of religious thought, including agnosticism and atheism.

Rather there are arrogant people in that faith and all others and none; and those who are so weak find their beliefs a convenient support and weapon against others.

Anyway didn't Jesus teach humility, kindness and respect for others? If so then those use and abuse the faith against others are not quite as "Christian" as they like to think.
ArishMell · 70-79, M
@suzie1960 I am sure they would but if they are arrogant that is their own nature, not a function of their faith.
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@ArishMell It's a common trait among many members of that religion/faith/cult.
ArishMell · 70-79, M
@suzie1960 it's a common trait regardless of faith, but your original post seemed to accuse all Christians and only Christians of being arrogant, which they are not.
val70 · 51-55
Nah, those aren't real ones 🙂

@suzie1960 I'm sure that you think that it's as violent a religion that can be. But I know better 😁
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@val70 You're deluding yourself.

My friend Kelly became a Christian by choice, and she's about the least arrogant person I've ever met.
ArishMell · 70-79, M
@MaryDreamilton Two of my friends are even ordained priests, but they most certainly are not arrogant!

They have this Militia to conduct Guerrilla attacks on the innocent non-Christian civilians.

[quote]Guerrilla warfare is a military tactic that involves small, independent forces carrying out irregular actions.

It's a trait of all the Abrahamic religions. That includes more than just Christianity.

It's not specific to Christians. There are lots of people who belong to "good" groups or communities as a way to "balance out" the negative things they do, and as a shield when people call them out for doing negative things. "I can't do anything wrong because I go to church" is a thought that often runs through their heads. Oxfam actually has a huge problem where several of the members on mission trips hire local prostitutes and engage in other illicit activities while they are supposed to be serving.

i take issue with that statement. i am not arrogant at all. confident yes but not that.
Any form of faith sounds cocky, the aim of faith is to keep fear at bay. Now religion will develop differently depending on the culture where it was implanted.
FeetAreFantastic · 41-45, M
There's arrogant people everywhere but definitely not all Christans are arrogant. Don't generalize!
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@iamnikki [quote]Well, you are going to continue to have "problems" because as I previously mentioned, Christians are instructed to spread the gospel[/quote]
Exactly as I said - christian believe they are under orders to harass non-christians. They'll find they have problems when they persist in that behaviour.
Iwillwait · M
@suzie1960 Common amongst all mankind.
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@Iwillwait Not as prevalent among other groups though.
Imsleepy · 31-35
Most people are arrogant.
dannysens · 56-60, C
Who is arrogant here:
1) The one who accept the Truth?
2) The one who reject the Truth?
Then you ask yourself: Am I a Christian?

If a MAGgot tried to get you to join the Apricot Antichrist’s cult it’s the same thing
empanadas · 31-35, M
In my experience, some of them are very humble. Others very arrogant, most are somewhere in between.

You have arrogant people everywhere you go.

@suzie1960 Some of them can be really threatening when you try to tell them you're not interested.

@Patriot96 They would if they could. Their doctrine is "convert or die."
