I am amazed that atheists get offended. It is not like they actually believe in anything.

It's their conscience that fears the Truth.

To be crucified is to be tortured. If your co-worker had up pictures of Muslims celebrating the death of Imam Hussein, how would you react? I personally would have no problem with a co-worker having up a nice picture of Jesus, but not a picture of Jesus being tortured.


Muslims celebrate religious holiday

Christian church = Cross on top of steeple

Agnostic church = Question mark on top of steeple

Atheist 'church' = No steeple at all.

An interesting aspect of consequences of sin in one’s thinking is the building of an arrogance complex in the thinking processes.

The first stages of arrogance produce a resistance to anything Scriptural.

The later stages of arrogance aren’t satiated with resisting God, but lean towards attacking Him and His plan.

One manifestation of arrogance is being offended by the ideas or speech of others. Interestingly, one manifestation of maturity in Christian faith is not being offended by the beliefs of others even when they are antiChristian, as evidenced in our nation’s historical acknowledgment of freedom of speech.

They’re all working to stamp out Christianity in this country and around the world.

Your thinking about agnostics.

Atheist are as passionate about their beliefs just like Christians, Islamist, Orthodox Jews etc... are.

Well, there are members of another religion that get very offended about Easter.
