If your alternator wont charge it, then what makes you think a battery charger will?
Lead-acid batteries are peculiar animals. They dont like being drained, at _all_
If it wont crank your car over, then the battery has been reduced to 20%-30% of its maximum total capacity anyway.
The easiest and probably best solution is to pick up a new battery.

i ended up swappin the battery out with my friends and he drove around for a while to get it charged up.... my alternator wouldnt charge it cause the tensioner bolt was fucked up-->causeing there to be no pressure on the belt, i just needed it to be full so i could make it to the shop to get fixed. thanks though
