Christians. Could you be wrong?

[ShaMan]

Because you're probably a fine person without it. I was a christian for many years. Now that I'm no longer a christian, I'm a much kinder, more patient, and more genuinely sincere person than I ever had any hope of becoming as a christian. Christianity discourages growth in favor of tradition. Growth is where real transformation happens.

I don't believe that, I mean Christianity has helped me realise my problems had sins so that I rarely ever do them. I believe I am growing in Christ, following his examples in areas of life. I could never imagine life without Christ.

I once felt that same way as you. You are offering your experience - which I respect. You can choose to disbelieve my own experience, but please give yourself some credit. Your religion teaches you that you're less than worthless apart from christ. I'm telling you that the exact opposite of that is true. I'm on your side here, really. Not Jesus' side, nor the side of your religion, I'm on YOUR side, and I have hope for you.
