Question

[G Alan]

I've never believed in Jesus so I can't help you. But there are many here who did so I'll let them speak.

Welcome by the way, hope you stick around and that this isn't a hit and run thread.

Thanks for the welcome.  I hope its not a "hit and run" thread either.  Not my intentions.  Ya'll can help me with more understanding of what I believe and why.  I am sure you have your reasons for not believing, I am just trying to genuinely understand.  I hope I don't come across as deceitful or rude.  I have no ulterior motives at all.

You're gonna find a bunch of former believers here.  Welcome aboard.

Thanks.  I just want to understand the reasons behind former vs. now.  Is it something that we as Christians need to be aware of and are we a part of the problem.
