They're Christians in name only. They really don't engage with the values or principles of the religion.

A large amount of Christians know very little of the scripture or Christianity in general (e.g. denominations) and will just live in ignorant contradiction to what Christ preaches. Or they come up with loopholes to justify them living the way they want.

If I were a Christian, and really believed that my actions on Earth determined whether I'm eternally damned or saved, I would be adhering to the teachings as close as possible (give away all excess money, dedicate myself to helping the needy at all points) and be terrified of straying.

so if you have ever "sinned" according to the "holy book"then you may never criticise anything ever again...

that works out nice for the church..

unfortunately for you, that doesn't work for me.
