Rules?

RE: Rules?
(December 28, 2008 at 10:27 am)Dotard Wrote: Sometimes when really bored I'll log into a Christian Discussion board, announce myself as a life-long christian (praise Jesus and all of that) but with some questions and concerns.

As time goes by I raise questions about I.D., bible contradictions, evilution, whatever and watch the other members try to squirm their way around problems and offer up non-sensical solutions.

In the end I announce a de-conversion and 'blame' it on their non-sensical answers stating something like "As much as I have prayed for understanding and elightenment I cannot in good conscience accept christianity, and by extention theism in general as an intellegent choice. I came here seeking reasons to believe to defend belief in God and Jesus however after discussing in depth the belief I can find no reason to believe it to be true any more than I can believe Homer's Iliad and the Odyssey to be true."

Maybe I am a little bit to easily entertained but I find it quite entertaining to log in every once in awhile to see my P.M. box chock-full of "Don't give up on Jesus! He will reveal himself to you!" "Pray harder" "Pray more sincerly!" and the like.

Jeez, I need a hobby.


Or a job.

Haha. I know a few mates that do that. The first two searches for a site show that they strictly want christians in them. Very inclusive these people are, hey?

I have never been to confession and was thinking of going for the simple reason of curiousity. I am in the process of trying to find a confession place.
Ooo.. what shall I say?

I also need a job. lol.
