[QUOTE="Sanyam Deshi, post: 97038, member: 5926"] I'm not sure that study is completely accurate. There are an estimated 1.2 billion members of Catholicism, 800 million members of Protestantism, and 225-300 million members of Eastern Orthodoxy. The accuracy of the study also depends on how it is conducted. You are very clear about what you define as "problem Christians," and I am in agreement with a majority of your descriptions. How did the study test for these "problematic" characteristics? Were there large numbers of people in the sample size? Did the sample stretch across many branches of Christianity? Were participants located in a place that increased the probability that they would be problematic? Perhaps I can't speak for all Christians. I am a Catholic and I have only ever gone to Catholic masses. Quite frequently, the priest will include in his homily a reminder to the congregation to live out their lives in faith with many specifics about how we should be tolerant and show many other positive qualities toward other people. Meanwhile, small divisions like the Westboro Baptist Church are 100% problematic. I'm not that knowledgeable in many of the divisions of Protestantism, but if there are more that teach among these lines, I can understand why the numbers might be higher than I initially expected. Also, regarding your specific biblical example of contradiction, I'm no expert on Biblical interpretation. Though, his topic has been discussed before in other locations, so perhaps I can refer you to those if you are truly curious about our perspective. I scanned through a thread on another forum and there seemed to be some sufficient explanations within it.
