Ten signs you are a Christian (Objectionable material)

I found this as an image somewhere a while back, but I don't know the author. If you can site the original source, please post it as a comment.

  1. You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of your god.
  2. You feel insulted when scientists say that people evolved from lesser life forms, but you have no problem with the Bible claim that we were created from dirt.
  3. You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Trinity god.
  4. Your face turns purple when you hear of the 'atrocities' attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about how god slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in'Exodus' and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in 'Joshua' - including women, children and animals.
  5. You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life, and then ascended into the sky.
  6. You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of the Earth (4.55 billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by pre-historic tribesmen sitting in their tents guessing that the Earth is a couple of generations old.
  7. You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs (though excluding those in all rival sects) will spend eternity in an infinite hell of suffering. Yet, you consider your religion the most 'tolerant' and 'loving'.
  8. While modern science, history, geology and physics have failed to convice you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor 'speaking in tongues' may be all the evidence you need.
  9. You define 0.01% as a high success rate when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% failure was simply the will of god.
  10. You actually know a lot less than many Atheists and Agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity and church history - but still call yourself a 'Christian".
