Are some people too religious?

I am a Christian, but I can listen to others and take their opinion on things, but some individuals think they know everything under the sun. If someone does something wrong, the first thing they say..Oh you're going to hell. They make people who want to be a part of Christ, not want to be associated with Christianity, when they hear others act like they know who God is. It's as if they wrote the bible. Also the bible has been written over so many times that are we actually sure about everything. There is no doubt that there is a supreme being that made our world. Let me give you a story my fiance and I was in the Walmart one day and she saw a friend she went to school with and we decided to have a bite to eat sometime and we wanted to go eat at a restaurant, that served great food and they also had a bar. Her friend was saying she knows somewhere better than we can go that does not have a bar as she does not drink. People we were only going to have a bite to eat. If you are a true christian (in my view) you can go anywhere you please and not be intimidated by your surroundings. Let me hear your views people!

I keep wondering why some Christians (and I am one most days) are so against drinking? Christ drank, they all drank, there's many references to drinking in the Bible. If it was good enough for Christ...

Christ probably did have short hair. It was the custom at the time and 1Corinthians 11:14-15 (NIV) instructs men to have short hair and I doubt Paul would have said that if Christ had long hair. Check out biblegateway.com to do fast fact checks.

There are some christians that goes to the extreme.I guess that's the way they were brought up or they just have some issues.I don't really particularily care to be around people who think they are better than everyone else. I am so glad that I'm a christian and I'm free. I know that I make mistakes and God will forgive me when I repent and ask for His forgiveness.
