Canuckus Deploracus Loc: North of the wall

As per my word, given to a fellow member of the OPP, on my last 'Definitions' post, this week's definition will be the term 'anti-christian'...

I will admit that this term is exceedingly difficult for me to define... I have spent some time this past week to reflect on it and find myself stumped as to a definitive definition...

I invite all members of the OPP to share their wisdom and understanding with each other and myself...

How do you (personally) define the term 'anti-christian'?

And what signs would there be that an individual was engaging in the act?

God decides who belong to Him or not. Christians have a covenant with Christ.
Most democrats now violate the mandates of God. E.g. a******n has gone worst. They also sell the baby parts for money, just as thousands of protestant pastors sell the Holy Scriptures of God with their various interpretations.

Jesus is the judge of all.

A Christian is one who believes that Christ is their Savior and who honors the word of God.

Christians in their physical being are alive but in their spiritual being are living or dead, awake or asleep!

A believer who has sinned but has repented is awake, has accepted Christ into his heart and his spirit is alive. Should his physical life end in this state, his soul will be rewarded with everlasting life.

A believer who has sinned but has not repented is asleep, his sprit is dead. Should his physical life end in this state, his soul will be condemned to everlasting death.

To gain everlasting life, you must walk with Christ down the “righteous path.” If you happen to deviate and fall into sin, you immediately ask for forgiveness to get your spiritual life back.

God assured all who accept Jesus Christ as their Savior and have repented their sins will gain eternal life? We all must atone for our sins which is a cleansing process. In the Catholic Church, they call it purgatory.

Non-Christians who do not believe in Christ or God are aetheists and they will not achieve eternal life nor will those who, although they practice good works, but reject the fact that Christ is their Savior will also be denied eternal life.

Besides the actual definition in the dictionary I think when I hear the term anti Christian from people I don’t think of someone who just doesn’t believe. I think of someone who has to try and degrade someone for believing and also question their sanity. When I meet an atheist I feel sorry for them but I never just degrade them personally because they don’t believe.

some one who thinks that every one should be allowed to do what they want to do no matter what anyone else has to say . there are no limits and no morals . it is what I want it to be. Christians are loony toons to believe in a God. there is no creator. taking any mention of God or Jesus out of any public form. anti Christians want the Christian belief to be shut down, no worship no gatherings destroy all evidence of text found that support and prove Christianity . one who will not believe that we were created. that we came from some sort of slime pit. this could go on an on

Good post... "christians" are taking an incorrect rhetorical position against people who object to religious values being brought to our government and laws.

"Alt Anti-Christian"
1. People who have nothing against Christianity or Christians as a group, but want them to keep their religious values all to themselves and stop trying to subvert the government and laws into supporting christian beliefs.

2. Best defined by the example that they have no more against Muslims or Jews or any other religious group, but strongly believe that these religious groups are entitled to believe wh**ever they want but not to "practice" their beliefs in such a way that infringes on anyone else's rights and freedom. Christianity as a faith is lumped right along with any other religion in this regard.

3. Those who believe Christians have no more rights than any other people, including gays, b****s, hispanics, Muslims, Jews...etc.

4. Atheists, Agnostics...typically marked by a benign attitude about christians or those of any other religion or faith. Most do not care about what others believe, it means little or nothing to them, and think that is is an individual's right to believe wh**ever they want. Many, if not most see no difference between any religion over another, recognizing religious beliefs taken to an extreme produces terrorism and wars.

People of belief are only noticed by people who don't care when they choose to represent that their beliefs somehow take precedence over laws and other people's rights. It is then that they object to Christians professing a right to "practice" their religion and beliefs.

There are millions of christians who do not believe that the government has a right to interfere with a woman's right to have an a******n, or gay rights and freedoms, such as an employer having the right to fire someone because they are gay.

This is not a religious thing, it is a bigotry thing, it is people using religion as an excuse to treat different groups of people badly.

It is being taken to a different place by the hard right than the true definition.

People in general are objecting to those who h**e gays and muslims, and think their religious beliefs gives them an excuse to h**e. It is because some people are using the name of christianity to discriminate and persecute based on demographic groups that chritianity is under fire. The reality is that people who object to h**ers see nothing wrong with christianity as a religion. When acts of hatred and bigotry are done in the name of religious beliefs those beliefs are going to come under fire.

Being a christian does not require acts of hatred.

Neither has anything to do with god in any way shape or form

I know you Deploracus, won't agree with me because I am a Catholic, having a Covenant with Christ, through the Holy Communion. Track records of your postings indicate your hatred towards Catholics. That is okay. You have the freedom to speak.

Anti Christians are those groups of people who violate the Commandments of Christ, and His early Church teachings, 1,987 years ago.

Anti-Christians are those groups of people who decide and judge other Christians as Cults and Pagans.

Anti Christians are Muslims who k**l Christians unless they submit to their god.
Anti Christians are those who abort or k**l babies, then sell baby-parts for money. Most of them are protected by Democrats like Nancy Pelosi, Obama, etc.

Anti-Christians are drug addicts, Atheists, drunks, socialists, c*******ts, and Islam believers.
