If they're allowed to read their holy book and take it seriously, they'll be far from "good christians". What you are describing is "non-christians" masquerading as christians, when really they are just cherry-pickers.
Quote:I can rebut Demonura and 8630's posts with this. Not only does the Christian god imply punishment for misdeeds, it tells us what a person who obeys god should do. Hence, just one example, love thy neighbour as thyself.Stone homosexuals, kill non-virgin brides, etc, are more example of the teachings of their holy book.
Quote:Hence they will at least believe that God wants them to do certain good stuff...such as killing witches. Otherwise theyd be disobeying god.
You are REALLY missing the point. You're talking about "good christians". A good christian is somebody who believes in God and Jesus and doesn't pay attention to the bible unless it suits. How can you uphold this? You'd have to edit out the bad parts of the bible otherwise the people will realise what BS they're being fed and how their governments have lied to them.
