I Just Got Saved!

[Cinjin]

Presumably, you have friends who don't agree with you on every issue. Why is the man no longer your friend because he doesn't agree with your views on God? Why is he no longer a good man?

I have many friends who are atheist and I love them just the same. If anything, I love them even more now that I am a Christian. So, I would ask why you don't consider this person your friend any longer, when he obviously still cares about you.

...I have a few "friends" that are christians as well. You need to read more carefully newbie. I never said the man was no longer my friend because he got saved, in fact, this is all I wrote regarding our departure and that would imply that we are more than likely on friendly terms:

At this point, I don't remember exactly where the conversation went, but it was short-lived and we parted ways with a friendly handshake.

That being said, it is foolishness, and a bit of straw man to imply that we were great friends even before that evening. Regardless of his acceptance of stupidity, we had not spent any time together in years and it may be reasonable to assume that we may not have been very good friends any way.

Also, it is difficult for to be very good friends with stupid people. And christians (self-proclaimed sheep) tend to be stupid people. (I do however know a handful that are reasonably ok)

Were I to see my old friend on the street again, knowing what I know now, I would still certainly engage him with a hello and smile, because above all else (and without your angry god) I am a human being attempting to promote good will among all men. Something your god has NEVER been known to do by the way.
