What makes me sick is some of the ole timers in this thread coming in to mock and stone a new poster. Now THAT is also amazing AND disheartening! Way to go people!
It's just that I don't verbally brag about my religion I just practice it is all.I also don't go around trying to shove my beliefs down someone elses throat.
I'm nice to everyone too but I just don't brag about it I just am.

lovinglaura: I have never heard so many aweful and hurtful comments about our God before in my life. It saddens me to see that the people that Jesus Christ died for are still mocking him and rejecting him. Nobody else will ever love you as much as he does, so how can you make jokes about the one who suffered a horrible death on Calvery just so you could have a shot at going to Heaven. I do not understand this rejection and non-belief.
Because, yours is not the only God........ They are all man made, so why should anyone want yours in particular.....
There is a higher power, not neccesarily a God, so why box it up and claim it for yourself ?
You got to understand Laura. that not everyone is a believer, nor do they want to believe. they feel that GOD has done nothing for them personally. Infairness he has saved you, he has done you so many things. Ppl are yet to see before they believe. But why comment on ppl, because they dont believe, as long you do in respect. GOD will deal with them. You live your life with God, and let ppl live there lives as they see fit, It shouldnt bother you whether they disbelieve, I'm sure before you found God in your life, before that, werent you the same? or were you born into a christian family, If you werent, then you will know what its like to have a disbelieve, if you were born in the family of christianity, then you need to open your eye a little and see and respect not everyone believes, or want to believe, or is planning to beleive in God. Dont let it get to you.

CalgaryDude: I am very much a Christian and believe in and serve a risen Christ
Yes you already said you were 'hedging your bets' back in August.
"I am very much a Christian and will say I would rather believe in and worship Christ and find out at the end that he did not exist than not believe and find out he does. its your choice to believe or not.but I know from very personal experience that he does exist and is still in the business of miracles"
why do bible thumpers keep thinking its their live's work to "save" everyone else?????
more importantly what makes them think we want saving in the first place????
i would love to see their look when they die and NOTHING happens.... of course, that would mean that something would have to happen for them to see that there is no heaven or hell !!!!!!
maybe it could just be a short "after death" event .... just long enough for them to see the gates of heaven and the sign reading: "out of business, we are closed forever !!"

I don't thump anybody's head. I figure we all have enough headaches. As for "why do they do it," haven't you heard of the instruction to be a witness to belief? They just go about it wrong, lol. I don't like Mormons knocking on my door, either, so I hear you.
If I find out "nothing happens" (I assume you mean there is no life or continuation of life after death), it won't really matter, because I will have lived the life I wanted to anyway (for the most part). Somehow I doubt this will happen because I have experienced too much to not believe in the spiritual world.
trish123: I wasnt going to bite on this one J but have to commend what you say
And I am amazed at how many are on here that your 'God" does not seem to love... (what is 'love'? For most simple humans it's one set of glands calling to another. It isn't love...)

i am not ashamed of the name jesus christ, why people are? it offends them. when you say buddah or your a hairy chrischna people dont mind that lol/ i think its because jesus came, died for our sins, and there is a claus. u have to actually believe your a sinner first and then repent and ask him to into your life. which a lot of people find offensive, but do do some REAL RESEARCH of the bible and make your own conclusions about him before you judge others who are willing to say they do, good on you for standing up for your faith in jesus. im with you@@

lovinglaura: thank-you, for participating in this forum. If people don't believe in God, than why are they in a religious forum? Thank-you for standing up for God.
we are in it, as it shows on the main page, and you are saying how amazed you are about the amount of people who dont beleive..
Im an athiest...and dont believe in heaven or hell, the virgin Mary (to me the biggest joke)
why....lots of reasons....
but one of the main one is... why would a god, let a child suffer with a awful illness?....cancer, progeria, tumors, AIDS etc...
