Ex-Christians

[Tnmusicman]

Maybe not, but if God wants people to keep their faith, stay saved and be Christians, if what God wants is right and if he has the power to do what he wants, why wouldn't he give people the motivation required for that?

He does give motivation but people sometimes give in to other interests. God doesn't force you to stay faithful but I presume He would WANT those who call themselves Christians to stay faithful. It's not really a black and white thing,IMO.

Calm the FUCK down. I answered your "single freakin question" the way I wanted to. Do I now have to answer your questions according to your proper standard of answer?

"Makes no difference to me."
Clearly it does. Otherwise you wouldn't be so butthurt by my simple response. Furthermore, you yourself said that you didn't know if anyone else had posted such a question. I was filling you on the back story of this debate that we've had over and over.

So once again ... calm the fuck down.

Actually, you didn't answer his question. You did lay out a nice strawman, though.

Also, he seems pretty calm to me.

Edit: Until the post above mine. All caps implies rage, man.

You're right that did upset me. However, it pisses me off when I have said nothing to imply I want to debate anyone but its just assumed before I've even said anything that I'm GOING to dammit cause he's one one of them christards.
But, I thank you for your polite comment and I thank all others that were nice enough to answer my question without assuming too much.

I appreciate your comments thusfar but I would ask you how Gods omnipotence would have any bearing on one losing their faith.

If being 'saved' was such a transcendent and great experience, why would anyone ever want to reject it?

I'm not debating here . There was a question going on between two others and I asked this question of the man asking the first question.
For the purposes of this thread (except for thanking and answering questions that pertain to the original question ) I'm only interested in what I originally asked.
For those hell bent on assuming stuff ill go ahead and say regardless of your answer to my original question I assure you I won't ask follow up questions or attempt to make assumptions about why you are no longer identifying as a Christian.
