Why I'm not a Christian.

Note:  I in no way am trying to disparage the Christian faith.  I am merely expressing my thoughts on the subject and enlightening my audience as to why I do not embrace it.  Anyone is free to believe whatever they choose as long as your faith does not interfere in or oblige my personal freedom.

Intro:  I've read the bible through and through.  I don't think many Christians can claim that.

15. Everyone who's never heard of God, Jesus and the Salvation all went to Hell.   Does this make sense to you?  So let's say you were born in the 3rd century in Mongolia - riding horses, living your life, hunting for food, caring for your family, raising your children.  You die a ripe old age of 40 and find yourself in Hell.   You wonder.. " @#$@#@#$ @#$@ - How the @#$@# did I end up here?". 

Does this sound fair, logical, rational, or comprehensible?  Just because you didn't accept Christ?  "Who's Christ" - you exclaim.  I'm a Mongolian.. never heard of Christ.  You thought you were being a decent fellow, loving your wife, family and friends.  But it wasn't good enough!  Hey, you have to "accept" a Christ you never heard of...( hence the need for all Christians to "preach" the Gospel and proselytize"  The rules are cruel, unfair and not something I'd expect a loving God to rig.

16.  The Christian God requires worship and prayer.  Do you think a real God is so insecure it constantly needs to be praised and told how great it is?  Told how beautiful it is?  Told how unworthy we are?

17.  Satan.  So there's a demon roaming around trying to get us to commit sins?  Think about it..

18.  Christianity is black and white.  It's rules and ideology is "right" or "wrong".  "Good" or "Bad".   It doesn't reflect reality.  It reflects a child's reality.  But we all know how "complex" life really is as we grow up.  It's not a "mature" ideology.

19.  Most Christians have never studied or investigated any other religions.  But they claim to have the truth and know the truth because of their "experience".  Surprise! - everyone w/ faith has had the same similar experience.  So this "I know what I experienced" line doesn't hold water.  For some reason, most "faithfuls" cannot fathom that other people of other religions could have experienced the same "eye opening" transformation and revelation as they have.  They don't realize that what they experienced was an "emotional" experience, and nothing more.  No more special than what the Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim or Jew experienced for their "eye opening" revelation.
