Negative sides of Christianity
First of all - this is not a thread for anti-Christian chauvinism or hatred or defamation. This is strictly for discussion. Christians as well as non-Christians are welcomed to join.
I am making this thread, as a person who is not all that reluctant towards Christianity, to discuss some of what may be perceived to be negative sides of Christianity.
I believe biblical Zionism, also known as Christian Zionism, believing that the Jews are literally the chosen people, that we are to serve, is a very negative side of Christianity - it is perhaps, together with the Judaic derivation of the Christian foundation, one of the biggest problems in the religion.
Another aspect of Christianity I am against, is what I would refer to as religious egalitarianism. That anyone who converts to Christianity, is an equal, that we are to accept into our hearts. This, I cannot agree with.
Now of course, there is no static version of the religion, only interpretations. But these are some of the prevalent, actual problems I see, and hear from Christians, from priests as well as Bishops, not some senseless abstract critique.
Those subjects should perhaps be discussed more openly than before so. I am also interested to hear what Christians here may have to say about it. Before you accuse me of blasphemy, let it be clear that my intentions are good, and not founded in anti-Christian sentiment.
Feel free to reply to the threads original title, or to my initial remarks.
