Differences of Opinions The first thing to say about the short story is that Bertrand Russell has his own opinion through out the story of , What is a Christian. This is not short story points of one person’s feelings. This one person being the speaker. The story expresses Bertrand Russell idea of what a Christian is and beliefs that they should uphold. The story’s basis stems from two thoughts in one thought Christ is to be immortal, in another thought to be a Christian you should believe in hell. These were the main ideas for this short story. How can we characterize the speaker? For one thing the writer is very one sided. Remarkably, he is right in some aspects. Such as his thought on the two questions a person should ask themselves” Why do I not believe in God and in mortality: and, secondly Why I do not think that Christ was the best and wisest of men.” This seems odd that the narrator says these two phrases. It seems as if he is trying to justify for him not believing in god.
