Except that he, Jesus, said, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me."
Not so tolerant! He did love, He is love, but His love is to lead one to a reconciliation with almighty GOD.

That's close to my take on the issue. You don't find too much (if any) "hate and revile the other religions" in Buddhism and Hinduism. Though folks may chastise me about this over the actions of the fundamentalists even original Islam was fairly tolerant of other religions...
Where do you come up with this ignorant stuff? What kind of hayseed falls for that?

...because the original teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, stripped of the dogma and doctrine piled on his name by those in power, was basically a teaching of tolerance and love for all mankind no matter who they were. ^^^^^ Yep. That's about the only thing you got right. The rest was rubbish.

This is interesting in that to be a Christian who believes the above, everybody else is wrong, be they Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, or whatever.
The problem with this idea however, as we all well know, is that even "Christian" religions there are those that would kill one another in the name of god - theirs, yours , or my God??!!
However, according to whoever wrote this, he is right and everybody else is a heathen because he is "Christian" !
Last I checked Jesus was a Jew, not a Christian.
Cat It is the true Christian's belief, that the Bible is the true and inspired Word of God. There is no hope contained within the Bible by which mankind can be reconciled to the true God and Creator of the Universe, outside of Jesus Christ. It isn't a matter of "I'm right" and "Everyone else is wrong". It is a matter of what God says in the Scriptures, which is, Jesus is the only way for man be reconciled to God. This isn't my words. I didn't make the rules. This is The Rules set by God Himself. Since the Garden of Eden, Satan has been trying to deceive mankind, to believe anything other than that simple Truth. He is very successful and very good at what he does. As far as "Christians killing one another in the name of their god"? I don't know of any Christians that have done that.

Not so tolerant! He did love, He is love, but His love is to lead one to a reconciliation with almighty GOD. Driving people away from 'Christianity' because of the intolerance that Jim in Idaho mentioned isn't leading anyone to a "reconciliation with the almighty GOD"...it is in fact pushing many people further away...! No brownie points for that.

Jim, Ignorance like that is truly appalling. In this day and age with education so easily available, there's just no excuse.

People get driven away when they find out that there is no promise of a suffering free life. People get driven away when they find out that God wants their worship. People get driven away when they find out God has standards for behavior.

The Irish come to mind, as do the English , when it comes to Protestants against Catholics, the french, and almost any other country where one is pitted against the other - all in thew name of God.

Anglican vs Catholic goes back to a king that wanted his rutting blessed by The Church. Should The Church have capitulated?

If people think the life of a Christian is easy peasy they are wrong we are to be a peculiar people and not just "go along" with world views even if that puts us at odds with the world. This is life and death serious with eternal consequences, if you want to hear messages from people with sugar in their mouth I suggest Joel Osteen or Oprah. Mike

Cat Calling yourself "Christian" and actually being Christian are not necessarily the same thing. Much evil has been done by evil man and oftentimes justified in the name of Jesus. Doesn't equate to condemnation of Christ himself or a guilty indictment of true Christians. I can call myself a Mason but that doesn't make me one!
