As time goes by I raise questions about I.D., bible contradictions, evilution, whatever and watch the other members try to squirm their way around problems and offer up non-sensical solutions.
In the end I announce a de-conversion and 'blame' it on their non-sensical answers stating something like "As much as I have prayed for understanding and elightenment I cannot in good conscience accept christianity, and by extention theism in general as an intellegent choice. I came here seeking reasons to believe to defend belief in God and Jesus however after discussing in depth the belief I can find no reason to believe it to be true any more than I can believe Homer's Iliad and the Odyssey to be true."
Maybe I am a little bit to easily entertained but I find it quite entertaining to log in every once in awhile to see my P.M. box chock-full of "Don't give up on Jesus! He will reveal himself to you!" "Pray harder" "Pray more sincerly!" and the like.
Jeez, I need a hobby.
Or a job.
Haha. I know a few mates that do that. The first two searches for a site show that they strictly want christians in them. Very inclusive these people are, hey?
I have never been to confession and was thinking of going for the simple reason of curiousity. I am in the process of trying to find a confession place.
Ooo.. what shall I say?
I also need a job. lol.
