  1. We should care, but we should also know what our limits are and not push it.


  2. It would make it easier on both of us if you did not care.  

  3. Since there isn't a deity, theres also no such thing as sin.  

  4. I would not say it's a sin but it would be a sin not telling the athiest about God and ignoring God's message and not spreading it.  

  5. Ooooh yeah, God through Jesus has instructed us to tell the wicked (warn them) of impending jugdement.

  6. no. and id appreciate it if you didnt care.

    as i always say: worry about yourself, leave others alone.

  7. No, it's more of a sin to numb your intellect and waste your life believing in some imaginary friend.

  8. There is a God.  

    I really don't care.  I have no problem with sharing the word of God, but if you don't believe or want to hear I could really careless.

  9. Well, atheists don't care if you DO believe in god, so in my mind, I'd say that it's a equal trade.

  10. If you are a fundie then you should care, and spend every waking moment trying to get everyone to follow God.  If you are NOT a fundie, then tolerance is best.  Accept that others feel different then you and let them be.

    From my point of view, there are far greater things to think about then religion.  Focus on education and helping those less fortunate.

  11. Yes, it is.

  12. As a Christian, I care enough about the Atheists to give them the Gospel message and I care enough to pray that they accept it but ultimately if they reject Jesus Christ as Savior then it's out of my hands and their blood is upon their own heads not mine. I then move on and bring the Gospel to the next person.  However, we are commanded to love our enemies and to do good to those who do us harm. That is Agape love. Agape love is not a sappy, syrupy kind of love but a working, do good to others kind of love and that is what we are commanded to do. We may not always want to do good to others but we must. I always thought it meant to literally love others as I would love my mom, dad, brother or sister and that is what I didn't understand. How could God command us to love someone that's not lovable? Now I know what He means by loving others and how He can command it.

  13. Only if you don't tell Him about salvation in Jesus, once you do and if he still rejects it, you've washed your hands of it

    Ezekiel 33:8,9:

    “When I say to the wicked, ‘O wicked man, you will surely die,’ and you do not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require from your hand. 9 “But if you on your part warn a wicked man to turn from his way and he does not turn from his way, he will die in his iniquity, but you have delivered your life.

  14. You shouldn't care, because that is none of your business.  If everyone could just commit that "sin" you're mentioning, there would be no holy wars.

    PS: There is no God.

  15. yes

  16. well yes sort of. as Christians we r to strive to help ppl come to kno the Lord no matter wat their beliefs r. do u remember the part in the Bible when Jesus was on the cross and the person being crucified next to Him was saved bc he believed in Jesus? that shows that anyone can b saved. pray and ask God to give u a heart to care for these things. and to care for unbelievers.

    best wishes!

  17. 1) One can only "lead" by example.

    2) The Holy Spirit does the work.

    Don't worry. Be happy. Love thy atheists.

    God will get to them in God's time, not ours.

    God love you.

    On the other hand all public funding should be cut to every philosophy department in the US. Let them "sell" their wisdom on the open market. Why should I pay taxes for someone's Godless fantasy?


  18. I would call this "merciful common sense."  

  19. Nope not at all .

  20. What is wrong with reading the Scripture to find the answer to that question?

  21. No.

    It is a sin not to attempt to tell someone about God.

    It is also a sin to continue after they express no desire to know.
