I never want to complicate my faith into a realm that exceeds the simplicity of Jesus Christ and Him crucified. No self help book's carefully phrased articulations will ever be able to outshine the light His truth shines into my soul..."

This was a person's post on my FB newsfeed. I just have to ask... is everyone so deluded and comfortable in the glass box of Christianity that absolutely no evidence contrary to your worldview will be even remotely considered? Is the reason literally because anything contrary "exceeds the simplicity of Jesus Christ"? Is questioning your thoughts, feelings, and actions so horrible of a predicament that unless you have a book telling you exactly how to think, feel, and act you can't function properly?
Always cracks me up when something like this is posted on an atheist forum. The Christians here are obviously comfortable with challenges to our worldview, or we wouldn't be here. You guys are the ones in the safety zone on this site.
Ohh puuuhhleeeze, if we only hint at atheistic content on a certain theist forum we're banned without notice. Everything has to be pre-packaged bullshit.
