"I don't know if you are trying to be blasphemous or really don't know much about what you are critisizing. Christianity is based on the promise of atonement. Hell is for those who are not saved by grace, which requires a Christian faith."

People can claim to be Christian, but that does not mean they are faithful to some of the tenets of Christianity. Examples: An individual can cheat their neighbors, but since they claim to be Christian, they feel like they have forgiveness. Then, they repeat the process of cheating their neighbor the next day, and then assume they will be continually forgiven. Their problem is they have a total lack of sincerity about their Christianity.

Some examples of such individuals:

William Judas Clinton

Hillary Rotten Clinton

Jesse Jackoff (Jesse Jackson)

Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker


They all claim to be Christian, but they are out to take advantage of everyone they can. Don't tell me that just claiming to be Christian is sufficient.

Uh, that was my point. But glad to see that you are onboard!. In fact, this observation is true even when removing the "take advantage of everyone" clause.

The American Religion (Neo-Christianity) promotes the "free-will" theory of something called Christianity, where they say that being a Christian is a deliberate and willing choice. Because it is allegedly "voluntary", then those monsters you listed can claim they are Christian, and those in the American Religion will have to believe their claims. Of course, all kinds of excuses will be made for their behavior, but never will anyone say that they are reprobate.

It is in light of the [false] teachings of the modern day "Christian" church where I can see why the world would see little difference in the three monotheisms. I would call many of those who make the claim, agent provocateurs.
