The Reasons why "Just Following Jesus" Doesn't work

Bold mine.
Newsflash: We don't give a shit about your god or his gospel. Go magnify him elsewhere. If you think you are here to convert people, I have some oceanfront property in Arizona I'd like to sell you. Prime rates too!



He's doing a bang up job at all the things he should have done like end disease, end terminal illness, obliterate hunger, keep everyone happy.
So.... how long should we wait for this non-existent gawd to "handle" shit?  


Goody for you. Take your love and shove it up your ass.



I don't. Now fuck off.



You are full of shit. You don't know me well enough TO have a heart for me. You only say that because you fear your god so much that if you aren't as sickeningly nice to people as you can be and tell everyone all about his bullshit, narcissistic ways, you'll end up in your imaginary hell.


I do not share this desire with you. You are on your own. And your desire is pointless where atheists are concerned.



How sad that you think he did things for you when in reality it was your own hard work that got you where you are. The problem with you christians is that you give your god all the credit for something positive, but any negative shit, you blame on people. Clearly being brainwashed has done more harm than good since you seem to be living in a backwards society built on a man-made religious farce.



Hmmm... sweetie, I don't sit under your imaginary god's wrath and even if I did, he's done nothing to show me he exists. I ain't skeered, if that's what you want me to be. I laugh at your puny god and the fact that you really think that you can come to an atheist forum and convert people.

It is a common misunderstand that people have that true christians are doing things out of terror for God.

Actually I am amazed by God and through the years my affection for Him is getting deeper the more I know Him. I am not trying to earn my place with God or be seen as worthy by Him.  I know I am not, but God has made a way though the blood of Christ.  I am secure and confident in my relationship with God, I have a purpose and worth in Him. There is nothing that can separate me from God.

No one can condemn me and that is liberating. 

Also, Christian's don't give God enough credit for what He has done for them. I have been reflecting on this and I am more confident in His ability than mine. You can tell by my spelling, and grammar that I am not perfect so yeah that is just the tip of my inabilities. Yet, God has done and is doing amazing things in my life and I am positive He will be doing even more. I mean, had He not changed me I would have already cursed all of you out by now. It's more than just my actions, but my desires have changed. I don't want to curse you I want you to know Him no matter what you think of me. I pray and allow God to do the work because like I said I can't convert you. So, nope I don't know you, like you don't know me. Still, that doesn't mean that I can't love you or pray for you.

Well, aren't you just special.  Kudos.  You know gawd personally, he talks to you, he meddles in your everyday life, nothing can separate you.  Well well.  So tell me, how could someone who memorized most of the wholly babble and prayed fervently to feel SOMETHING . . . ANYTHING . . . for 46 years get no response whatsoever?  Someone who was desperate to have your confidence in gawd, and begged to receive it daily for over four decades, but never had any confirmation that anyone, anywhere, was listening - - not a hint, not a murmur, nothing.  Yet people here keep saying that it's GOD that reaches out to people.  So . . . what??  You're probably going to tell me that gawd knew all along that I would begin to study science and logic, and would turn atheist, so gawd just never bothered to say "hi", is that it?

Don't give me the "you were never a real Christian" line.  I have heard it more than enough.
