Religious belief is inherently irrational - you have to suspend logic to swallow the basic tenets - so you can't expect people who believe in it to behave rationally if their beliefs are challenged. I've seen otherwise normal people become almost unhinged when confronted with the idea that someone else actively disagrees with their religious beliefs.
I'm a Christian, But there is no excuse for that teacher being treated that way. He has done nothing wrong to anyone, and who is to judge another?
I will not throw my beliefs on someone else. Truth be told I need to believe in God because I am not strong enough to stay off of drugs me being a addict. It helps me
That doesn't mean others need to do the same. It may just be a flaw on my part. Christians need to see that its not for everyone, just because they did don't mean
anyone else needs to.
Me being a christian is my choice and no one else can make that decision for me. I made the decision so those who don't is just making their own. who knows what is true. sure if someone
comes to me I would help them the best I could, but I'm not going to go out there and tell non believers they are going to hell, who am I?
Everyone one has got their own rights as a human to choose what makes them happy. just be cause I did don't make it true, it is just a choice, everyone has that right.
You might be wondering what I am doing here, in short. there is nothing wrong with searching for other peoples views.

Kudos, Anthony, it's not often i see christians who actually speak of choice and free will when facing athiesm. I wanted to give you props for your open-mindedness. Unfortunately, I also watched the video at the top of this post, so I would also like to apologize for the close-minded views expressed in the video. It is quite clear that both open and closed minds exist in both camps. we must remember, it is not us against them, from either side. Allow your brothers the freedom to worship as they will. After all, whichever religion you subscribe to, or if you choose not to subscribe at all, we're all going on faith. None of us have proof either way. I believe there is no God- I could be wrong, but without proof, it all faith and circumstancial evidence.
Most people hate on the concept of Faith, Both sides have argued it very well. They have torn the subject in half, and to the bone. The way I see it is, you cannot have Faith without knowing otherwise where would it come from in the first place. If everyone knew for 100% fact that God was real there would be no hell / heaven no decision at all. Therefor Faith would have no meaning at all.
I started out being a Christian using a sort of game theory, Meaning I would do my best to believe and if it where true then I would go to heaven if not o-well.. it wasn't until I read into it more and learned that what I was doing would not work. I had to be one one side of that fence not on both.
I don't care if someone don't believe, I don't look at them with pity. I am sure people have all ready tried to tell them, witch is the reason some are against the others. Lets just get along in time we will see what happens. It would be better to be nice to those who don't believe anyways. Lead by example if they see how much hatred a "Christian" had towards them why would they want a part of that??
Everyone is the same and God told us to treat others as if they where family. Sometimes this is hard to do but with practice and ones ego aside it can be done.
Pray for those who aren't saved instead of cursing them. love one another, threat others the same as you would want to be treated. These are some things people can't seem to do. He said to love your enemy's and those who to be put lame terms, hate you for what you believe.
Mathew: And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?
Treat all people the same!!!

Assuming your he is god, he also gave instruction and authorization to own slaves, send bears to disembowel little children for teasing a balding priest, commanded us to stone disobediant children, had Jephthah burn his only daughter alive, and he commands you to kill anyone who believes in any other god. Yes, the god of the bible is a truly loving and great god.
