Why does it upset me when people "play the Jesus card"?

Asked by longgone (19541points) March 11th, 2018

I’m not religious. Sometimes, in debates with Christians, they state their position and then add “That’s what Jesus told us.”

It annoys me, but I can’t quite grasp why. It gets on my nerves even when I agree with the other party’s position. Why?

For what it’s worth, I try not to seem annoyed. Also, I don’t want this thread to turn into a flame war. I’m just interested in exploring my mind.
