		<description><![CDATA[First of all, thanks for acknowledging Christianity and setting things straight. It is too bad there are so many deceived people who carry false religion around, doing harm.  But it goes a lot further than the obvious ones you listed above.  
 
The Internet gives us evidence that we have too many narcissists developing in the world. Each person is becoming an &#039;individual&#039; know-it-all that has fallen for the freedom of speech card. The Constitution does not give us freedom because it isn&#039;t biblical. Man cannot give us what we already have. But we don&#039;t have freedom. We have free will. There is a difference and it has a much greater responsibility. In other words, just because we can do or say something, that doesn&#039;t mean we should. Once upon a time when &quot;keeping your mouth shut&quot; or &quot;do nothing at all&quot; applied many times over.  
 
But these days, you can&#039;t look at someone wrong without initiating an online comment from them. &quot;Can you believe someone looked at me wrong today?&quot; 
 
Those same types of people are also the ones who argue up and down about religion. Even so-called Christians do it. More and more people are forgetting the example Jesus Christ set. He didn&#039;t walk around looking for people to argue with or to prove his own righteousness. He acted as though God was looking down at all times. It is something most of us never think about. We choose to stay caught up in the turmoil of society, allowing it to distract us away from what is important. And much of the time, even if we suddenly remember, it doesn&#039;t take long for it to feel as if good behavior isn&#039;t compatible with today&#039;s world. 
 
But we have to remember something important. The world is destined to get worse. This is beyond our control. We cannot try to change the world into some good place. That would be like saying that the world will never end. A real slap in the face to God and His Truth. THE WORLD WILL END!! 
 
Therefore, we must SET AN EXAMPLE. One like Jesus did. He walked the walk to show us how we should FOLLOW HIM. He showed us that we will indeed suffer, be persecuted, be humiliated, and possibly be killed. But we were told to never sell out from God for the sake of our own life. I really do not think it is possible to walk the walk today without being mocked. Try it and see. There are many street preachers getting the treatment as I write this. They are real saints compared to me.  But I never forget what Jesus did and how He did it.  
 
There is much more to God than &quot;believing&quot;. And there should be zero talk or boasting about the supernatural and divine occurrences that come in the form of stories. Many people make a lot of claims and it deters people from God because it makes Christianity look like something for nutty people. There are some exceptions. Some stories tell of mysterious but inspirational occurrences that could very well have something to do with God. But there is never enough evidence to proof so. I think God likes it that way. But it&#039;s enough to bring people to Him. No matter, we have to walk the walk ourselves.  
 
So to all you Christians out there. Turn off your TV and stop worshiping evangelists. Don&#039;t send them your money. They are stealing it. And your ignorance is selling many people short. Do not fuel the evil that continues to blind people and lead them astray. There is only ONE way to God and that is through YOUR actions from day to day. You can&#039;t buy your way to Heaven.  
 
What have you sacrificed? What have you done? Who have you helped? Did all those things bring others closer to God. Who benefits? You or God? ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi 
I was just thinking that most Christians that know their stuff are not bothered by this article why? Because Jesus has already told us there will be false prophets and false Christ 
 
So what point are you trying to making? If we preached that there no false prophets trying to gain a foothold then you would have a point.
