I would suggest you compare notes with your Christian friends and see if they came to the same conclusions as you have. Do not to ignore the differences. Check the bible and see which idea has merit. You will probably find what I did, that diametrically opposed ideas are equally supported by sections of a book inspired by a supposedly timeless being who is omni-yeah you get the idea.

Never said I have a new approach, in fact I think it was the song All You Need is Love which said "Nothin' you can say that can't be said."
It just so happens that my beliefs are formed by such comparisons as you advise me to have. Independent Bible studies with friends who do and don't believe in varying degrees have led most of us to common groung on quite a few issues,and in fact a better understanding of the Bible, and God.
