Once I gave up Christianity, I stopped thinking of myself as such a horrible person. I still get angry at myself for my mistakes and try to be a better person, but I'm no longer forced to adopt a policy of self-loathing in order to attain salvation. I wonder now, and I know others of you will be able to answer in more eloquent and sensical fashion than I, but: why do Christians hate themselves so much? .
and jesus solves the problem, how? the bible says that jesus died in order to remove original sin, and yet we still have original sin, so jesus was pretty much useless (just thought id point ou the obvious)
The default state for a human is to be self centred and unpleasant. We don't need religious nonsense to tell us this.
How depressing. Grow some self-worth.
"I think no one’s a good person."You may be a bad person, but I am not.
"We’re all sinners"
Sin is an offense against God. As God does not exist, sin does not exist, therefore, no one is a sinner.
"and are terrible people,"
I don't really know you well enough to determine whether or not YOU are a terrible person, but you don't know me either. I assure you, I am not terrible.
"led to believe that if we do something a little wrong, it’s okay because other people do worst things."
I have never made nor condoned any such statement.
"Sin’s ugly;"
Sin is all in your head, it's imaginary.
"thank God for Jesus."
Isn't that thanking God for himself?
"I think no one’s a good person. We’re all sinners and are terrible people, but I'm led to believe that if I do something a little wrong, it’s okay because I'm saved and Jesus loves me. Sin’s ugly; thank God for Jesus."
I think no one’s a good person. We’re all sinners and are terrible people, speak for yourself.
led to believe that if we do something a little wrong, it’s okay because other people do worst things. You realy have a problem.
Sin’s ugly; thank God for Jesus.
Sin's bin's boogadabooga chin's.

There is no such thing as sin, and what's ugly is that people have taught you this nonsense to keep you feeling worthless, so you'll continue to listen to them. People are flawed, yes, and some of them do some pretty nasty things. But the line they feed you about people being basically evil is pure nonsense.
thank God for Jesus
I think no one’s a good person. We’re all sinners and are terrible people, led to believe that if we do something a little wrong, it’s okay because other people do worst things.
But look at the grand scheme of things, what has our species ever done apart from find new and cooler ways of destroying ourselves/our environment.
We’re all ... led to believe that if we do something a little wrong, it’s okay because other people do worst things.
Confused?
