1. LOADED QUESTION! (just like asking someone "Why do you beat your wife?" or "Why are Muslims terrorists?")
If you are genuinely wondering why some Christians are persecuted and ridiculed for sharing with other people that belief in Jesus Christ's crucifixion & resurrection is the only way to get to heaven, it's because that is precisely what Jesus Christ Himself said while on earth.
If Christians "attack" other religions, it's on philosophy, theology, and doctrine and not in the manner of "physical attacks" toward people of other religions.
2. This is an honest question.
Generally, Catholics are considered to be Christians. According to Christian teaching, as long as a person accepts Jesus Christ as their personal savior, they will go to heaven. If you are Catholic and accept Jesus Christ's atonement for your sins, you'll be saved. However, some Catholics consider themselves
Catholic and not Christian.
There is a separation that exists between Catholics and a portion of non-Catholic Christians because some of the Catholic doctrine and practices are not found in the Bible.
3. ANOTHER LOADED QUESTION!Disrespecting other religions is not endorsed by Christian beliefs. Christians simply try to follow Jesus Christ's teachings.
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." (John 14:6) Make no mistake, if Jesus Christ were here on earth TODAY, saying these words, he would be called intolerant, selfish, narrow-minded, and disrespectful by the rest of the world's religions. Christians follow a jealous God who will not tolerate sin or His people worshipping anything else but Him.
4. Why is that relevant? I am a born again Christian.
