Flaws
Christianity is all-in-all a pretty good religion, and I believe in most of the stuff the Catechism of the Catholic Church tells me to believe in, but there's one thing I don't like about Christianity: The concept that we're supposed to convert people to it.
I mean, what kind of jerk says to a Muslim boy (solely because he's Muslim): "Your religion is wrong. If you believe in it, you're going to Hell. But if you believe in what I think you should believe in, you'll be saved." I'll tell you what kind of jerk would say that: A Christian.
Jews, Muslims, and Hindus don't really like Christians because Christians are always trying to convert you, whereas they don't give a damn what religion you are.
Feel free to leave any comments, but please no religious debates.

You are an amazing person. I completely agree. In fact, I've been preached to by a christian before. I'm a christian! Apparently I didn't believe the "right" way.
I totally agree. I respect all religions, but the "saving people" thing gets on my nerves. I was raised to be a Christian, but decided a few years ago I'd rather be atheist/agnostic/my own bizarre beliefs.

Well, I'm Christian and I don't agree with you- Christianity isn't just a personal belief, it's a system. It's like telling someone, "If you use binary to solve your algebra homework, you're not going to get a good grade." It's not what one person decided was right, and it's not a mindset- It's a set relationship and it's there whether you believe in it or not.
I don't think you have to be a jerk about it, but you shouldn't hide your religion behind some curtain in your back closet, either.
EXACTLY!!! It doesn't matter what religion you are, no one has the right to try to make you change.
Sorry for just now finding this post, Kid-kun. I was bored.
