"Your condescending attitude is sickening. If atheists were capable of shame, you would be ashamed of yourself."
Most of my family are atheists or agnostics. They DO have shame and are NOT evil people because they lack faith. The truth is written on their hearts and I believe they will come to the Lord, as I did when I was an atheist. Being unkind to and insulting unbelievers will win no souls. I had many zealots try to convert me with anger and threats of hell, and it convinced me Christians were mean, crazy people. When I started meeting nice Christians my opinion of the faith got better and I read the bible more often. This showed me that Christ was being represented badly by many of His followers, and I came to admire Him. My heart opened up to Him and I accepted Him into my life.
Yeah, yeah, I know MM has said derogatory things. But Christians turn the other cheek and repay unkindness with kindness, and that is what brings shame to those without it.
Thanks for sharing, but I never did anything rem,otely like that, so why you are telling me is anyone's guess.

Excellent.

Great witness, thank you for sharing your witness.

Point well taken.
