I have a relationship with my wife, boss, friends, family, animals, etc, and of course those relationships are all different given the conext of the person involved.  Nothing about this is religious.  I also have a relationship with Christ, and the same priniciple applies.  My different relationships rsult in different outcomes, nothing religious about it aswell.  That is all that matters.  I understand that you don't understand because I used to be there, and that's alright.  I'm not going to understand what it means to be a fireman because I'm not one.  You're not a Christian so you are not going to understand either.  I accept that

But i can imagine what it means to be a Christian, and that's why i decided to not believe.

And if you're relationship with Christus or Mohamed or whoever brings you to bombard my country or to be a suicide-assassin, then i don't accept that. I wouldn't accept that from a fireman either, but firemen are normally safing lifes. You could say that one of 1000 fireman could still behave irrational and kill someone. But normally these people are trained to act rational if the fireman is not having a relationship with Santa Claus.

You know, the religious irrationality is dangerous and there were enough wars battled out because of different religious interpretations. I will not accept that.

Very understandable, but what it really boils down to the age old saying, "hate the sin, love the sinner."  I've been forgiven so I strive the same to all as a testimony.  Yes, there are some who have performed atrocious actions in the name of "god."  This is NOT Chrisitianity.  So with all due respect, you wouldn't know what it means to be a Christian.  Christians and so-called Christian are no better that any other human being.  No one is perfect, and we all have our faults.  And from the world's stand point there are a lot of bad people in any man determined group we put them in.  With that, I take things on a case by case basis and not judge a group (or anyone for that matter) simply based on a few.
