Hello, everyone

Hi there. I'm a Christian, but I'm here just to listen and learn about your perspectives. I'm interested in why and how you came to hold your current beliefs, not to try and counter them, but to hear from real people about their real experiences. I'm going to start with the Converts' Corner. Thanks for having me.

Welcome. It will be nice to have a theist here that's willing to listen instead of trying to make the atheists here listen.

We talk about other things too, besides belief or non, so you should be able to find a topic you are interested in.

Welcome
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

That’s not really my call. But I wouldn’t be opposed in principle. We’ve had people with other beliefs come to our church before, including Muslims and Mormons. I personally don’t think people should believe something is true just because it’s all they’ve ever known. It’s better to be exposed to lots of different beliefs and make a more informed decision.
