and people's reasons for believing or not believing have not been clear, not to me at least: there are too many terms with varying definitions, many of which (i believe) arent even their own. what have i said that was ludicrous? if any really wanted to discuss anything with me, i would drop the name "God" if they would drop the term "gods".
My complaint about Christians is not that they exist but that so few follow the advice supposedly given by Jesus concerning witnessing: to be as gentle as a dove, wise as a serpent, and if they won't listen to you, shake the dust off your feet and move on. We've all heard the 'good news', Christianity has reached market saturation. Now is the time to consider our position, and your position, very carefully to make sure you understand us and that you can offer some words likely to be effective. Praying about it might help.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
