Is it true or false: In your religion's interpretation of Christianity?

hate, murder, war, and conflict are acceptable?





What is the name of your religion and are these aspects of humanity considered evil?Is it true or false: In your religion's interpretation of Christianity?
Unacceptable. The denomination is called Mennonite and these actions are considered sinful.Is it true or false: In your religion's interpretation of Christianity?
I don't have a religion. Also, I'm pretty sure you meant to say ';denomination';, as your question makes very little sense when viewed from a non-Christian perspective.





Personally, I would consider hate, murder, war, and conflict unacceptable social patterns, and strive to prevent such things. From reading the Bible, however, I am always surprised by those Christians who claim they would as well, however. They seem to be morally superior to their own alleged ';god';.
All of these things are part of life here on earth. I am not saying they are good, but they are part of the experience it seems.





My religion has no name because I do not adhere to any one, but see that they all have good and bad points. But many paths lead to the same end.





To me, religions give people morals, or should, and gives them a way to relate in some way to their existence. It gives them hope that in bad times there will be a better day ahead. Without these things we are not much different than a pack of wild animals (but worst), raping, stealing, doing all sorts of things to others that we would not want to be done to ourselves.





Just like humans, no one religion is perfect. That is why there are so many throughout the world. Look at Christianity... if one was the ONE, then there would be only 1, not hundreds. It is up the the individual for interpretation.
False: None are acceptable to Christianity. I am a non denominational Bible Thumping Christian. I'm very proud to be a child of The Most High God, King of Kings.





Evil is a extremely strong word and where it relates to Christianity is not the same as how it relates to people in daily usage of the language.





Example would be hate the sin and not the sinner.


All the words you asked about are words of sin. In Biblical teaching evil is used in a way that makes reference to evil spirits, the demons, satan, you know I hope who Lucifer is/was? That is the devil of them all. Lucifer was God's right hand angel until lucifer thought he was more powerful than God. because of Lucifer we have evil in the world. He is the cause of pain, destruction and thrives on unhappiness of anyone. It glorifies him for people to have miserable lives and hard times. It makes him so full of glee, that is the difference between how evil is. What the word means to Christians as well as how we use it.





I won't say a word about war because political beliefs I separate from religious beliefs, as Christians we are to pray and encourage our leaders and not speak badly of them. But the other words, hate, murder, conflict, they are not acceptable. It is sinning against God as thee commandments require us to follow them, all 10 of them. Worshiping God first and no other is number 1 commandment. The other 3 are sins that can be forgiven by The Lord, (I'm staying out of the war issue altogether) Sinds can be forgiven if a person repents.





hate, murder, war, conflict, those make the enemy delightfully happy. He loves turmoil. Anything bad makes him so very happy. In the end, Revelations says it all. The Lord wins!
it depends on the circumstances. to hate sin is acceptable, to hate the sinner is not. murder is wrong, accept in war, which is only acceptable when fighting for righteousness (a righteous cause). conflict is inevitable, but we are to strive for peace or leave the situation in order to avoid conflict.


Im a Christian
Hate is evil, and comes out of evil things.


Murder is obviously a grievous sin against God and humanity


War is never desired, but sometimes necessary to stop evil


Not sure what type of conflict you are referring to... personal, international, financial?
Humanity is not considered evil but wicked, the bible says that jehovah (gods name) will bring the wicked ones to an end. In the last days Jesus said you would see these signs before the end of wicked people and the devil and his demons. Right now we are living in the last days. The bible also says that he would make the earth into a paradise and live forever upon it.

We are forced to accept them by circumstance of the world brought on by the original sin of Eve and Adam.


It is in the world we live in . It is our duty to diminish this aspect of human life as best we can. It is considered latent evil.


Peace is God's way and the way of his adopted children....
Jesus never condemned the Roman Empire as far as we know, and never denounced his peoples' warlike past. But he also said his followers should turn the other cheek.





However, in the first couple centuries, his FOLLOWERS taught total pacifism. Maybe it was Jesus's execution or teachings that didn't become part of the Bible -- assembled years later and edited by people working for the Emperor.





I think that early record is indicative that Jesus really did teach pacifism, so if modern Christians want to be true to Jesus and his teachings, they should be pacifists.





I'm a former Christian -- and not a pacifist either.
1. In Christianity YES


2. Atheism


3. YES
God is not a religion and he is not in Church, he has to be in your heart so you can love your neighbor as you love yourself.
Baptist and yes there are also called the 4 horseman of Apocalypse


War


Death


Famine


Pestilence
I am a christian, and yes, these are evil.
Not that I've ever known...
The true chrisitan way: Believe what I say or I'll hurt you.
