"Why Christians Don't Understand Non-Christians"

Actually it is Christians who DO understand non-Christians since they were once NON-Christians. Trust me, you don't hop out of Mom and declare yourself a "Christian" in cooing sounds. It is the NON Chrristian that doesn't understand Christianity and has chosen to REJECT it whether they understand it or not. What buggs NON Christians is the peace of mind that Christians have. Non Christians also get angry about their final fate, hell. Yet, it is a decision they can easily change. I find most non Christians to be self absorbed and very illogical.

They live in their world and we live in ours. I can't judge someone that isn't a believer because this place is all they are capable of grasping, and to try to explain your sure and solid knowledge is like trying to explain color to a blind man. This is why the name of Jesus should be spoken often, there is power in that name to turn the little light on inside someone that mere words will never convey and will never be capable of conveying.

Sorry, that doesn't sound much like peace of mind to me. Such fervent linquistic triumphalism (as in your rhetoric) seems to me more indicative of mental or emotional tumult, or suppressed doubt.

Non Christians also get angry about their final fate, hell.

No, those of us who are theists, or even agnostics, are angry, if at all, about the portrayal of God as a cosmic Hitler. The doctrine of hell is not worrisome or threatening to us, but it is an odious lie, and a sufficient reason (though far from the only one) to conclude that Christianity is a false religion.

Yet, it is a decision they can easily change.

Of course, otherwise one couldn't blame the victim. The Nazis had the same philosophy: the Jews were in the work camps and the death camps because they wanted to be there.

Now that I believe.
