I might be mistaken, but one of the very basic principles of christianity is to spread the word so everyone would know Christ. That only in Christ can mankind be good. This also sounds supremacist to me.
Quoting: MaybeTrollingU Well if you won't let Christ (God) recreate your heart, then continue being evil. No one is forcing you to believe. Lets face it this way: I point a loaded and cocked gun to your head and ask: "Give me your money or I'll shoot. Its your choice". Is it really a choice? Will it be suicide if you don't give me the money and I shoot? What if I decide that its not enough money in case you give me and shoot anyway? Its the same thing with mafia. You run your business fine, I'll "protect you" from myself. Just give me money every month and I won't break your legs. Its your choice. Is it really a choice? But you see, in that example, the choice is YOURS. You’ve created the situation, are controlling it, and have the choice of how it ends. The coerced victim is also given a choice, but perhaps their choice ends with salvation, and not yours. Exactly. This is exactly what most religions offer. In this analogy, god being the one whom created the situation and is coearcing the victim, which is you. Its like "Let me save you from the harm I'll do to you if you don't do what I say"
