Christians, what is it like to have a personal relationship with Jesus?

Then she should have consulted her bible first... Or she just wanted to leave all along and this moron's sermon gave her an easy out.

The mere fact that religion exists (as a means of mind control) is the issue here, not whether one slave reads and follows its edicts properly or not. If Christianity didn't exist then there wouldn't have been the opportunity to abuse my mother via its ploys, and it's very likely that my parents would still be together today. 

Religion ruined my home. Christians are more interested in their silly apologetics than in acknowledging the harm done by their religion. Please note the overwhelming support from atheists toward me in this matter, and then also note the conspicuous lack of empathy on the part of Christian responses.

Religion is mind control for those who want their minds controlled... However It is also freedom for those who truly want to know God.

Again, if you mother was indeed concerned about serving God then she would have heeded the passage in 1 Corinthians.

Just because you experienced one side of religion does not mean it doesn't have any more to offer than what you know.
