yet, I looked at the Nazi statements made on this website with respect because I wanted the full scope of why someone would feel Nazism should be accepted. That person expressed their opinion and I disagreed, but I didn't jump on to tear them down. This is my point: when it comes to a heated debate such as religion or lack of it, you're never going to attract someone with a good opinion if you make it a point to rip every thing down, also, you're never going to be satisfied when you don't know how to accept that your opinion can influence, but does not control another person. I agree, many religious beliefs are crazy, but when someone says to me: You have done wrong in your life, you can be forgiven, you are loved, even though you feel unloveable, you can change and he can help, can I tell you about that person? I listen, then I decide for myself from then on.
"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Hebrews 11:6
