Hi Ivo, I'm a Christian, or as I prefer a Christ follower, please allow me to respond to some of your points.A  rational discussion is not impossible between Christians and Atheists, difficult but not impossible. Atheist views do not upset me, I always ask if I can tell my story, after that what you do with it is up to you.  Christians can be extremely irritating, and downright stupid sometimes, but then again so can many non Christians, in all sections of the community you will find idiots, even the Atheist community. I agree with you that one does not have to be a Christian or a religious person to be charitable and generous, in fact many non Christian folk put Christians to shame in this area. You took an extract from Mathew 6 regarding praying in public, nice, try Isaiah 45.7  "I form the light and create the darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster, I, the Lord do all these things" He acknowledges that he is responsible. Your rant at the people is valid, at God ? No sir !
