If I am over all already a good person that treats other with compassion a love why change the way I think because who I am now I'm happy with, really I am. Don't think for a moment that I have not questioned my beliefs and yes I do know there is a chance i am wrong. But I like my life and I do make good decisions. I am happy I enjoy these kind of talks with people that think different than me cus I do respect that about people, and i love meeting people like yourself that has a wide open beautiful mind that believes totally opposite than me but still will respect me and my beliefs . I love life and I'm enjoying it as much as you! [emoji6]
I'm not trying to argue with you here or anything, and I'm trying to have a rational conversation. I'm glad that you're a compassionate person, but you don't need the christian beliefs to have those type of good qualities. Not believing in a religion, doesn't equate to having to change the good qualities that are part of your personality. I'm sure you see this.
Thanks for taking the time to respond on my thread, however I hope you will see some of these logical questions put forth by me, and many others on here, and actually think about them. If you don't have straight answers for them, it's a sign that you're dodging reality to sustain your beliefs. My wish for you, is that you'll see that some day. I'm not trying to say I know everything, but if your beliefs sound insane, and are completely unjustified with practically nothing to back them up (besides that they're written in a book), then it should be apparent that you shouldn't be believing in that sort of thing.
