why did you become a christian?

[Mister Agenda]

And honest question leads to more questions and hopefully understanding. To ask a question for the sole purpose of extracting information so as to launch an attack is childish. When you reply with a statement about the "perceived ridiculousness of your beliefs" how does that lead to an interesting discussion? Sorry, I'm becoming very disillusioned with the forum.

I've become very disillusioned with you. At first I bought into your 'serious intellectual' pose. I thought you at least had intellectual integrity. I looked forward to your comments for something different from the usual fare served up by Christianists. But you've turned out to be a great disappointment.

I was kinda hoping this thread could be somewhere that people could share the reasons for faith without being attacked for it. Silly me

The main problem is a lack of understanding on the unbelievers part.

There are no abstract thinkers here. Only logical ones. And that's what it takes in the first step towards God.

Because God is an abstraction? I already believe that.

But it's worth noting that your posts in this thread have been honorable.

I shared the story of my former faith and I didn't get 'attacked' for it.

Me, neither. You have to admit that Lion did, though.
