As a christian.
How do you deal with athiests or satanists who don't want to understand you, disrespect you and your boundaries, and lack all integrity and trust worthiness?

I just do a 360 and walk away.

I pray for them. I know that sounds like the cop out christian answer, but its true. If you think about it I actually feel quite bad for them. This world and the life experience can be quite disheartening and grim and thats even with Christ in my heart. I try to empathize with them in the sense that they're flying solo and dont have Christ to lean on and so therefore are taking lifes blows just full on without any relief. I know how hard that road is because I myself walked it before I picked up the cross. I just try my best to let Christ lead me in conversation with these people. Not to try to convert them or to convince them of anything but to try and show them true unconditional kindness and compassion. For Christs message was ultimately that.

I wouldn't say it is any more difficult to deal with life's blows without believing in a judeochristian God. Death without an afterlife is peace and rest in a way. Look at it this way-- from my perspective, at death, I'm going to either find out there is an afterlife... yay! Or completely blink out of existence, in which case I won't be around to fret about it. I'm also accountable only to my own morality, and believe in trying to be a good person for its own sake. Which is maybe easier I guess? And if I got sent to hell for that I'd be joining a lot of very benevolent souls who just happened to believe in the wrong God. I guess I would say I do try to follow Christ's ultimate message without necessarily believing he was divine. It's a great message. | |||

My grandma said she was born in June but not baptized until august, so she was never taken outside once. You would think the crib is still a dangerous place but she said parents didn’t want to risk their baby dying before it was baptized and therefore going to hell She said during confirmation as a kid to the pastor how she thought the idea of God dooming an un-baptized baby to hell ridiculous and not true | |||
