Try God...
July 16, 2013 at 1:58 am
I was recently hospitalized due to mental health issues and on the way to the hospital the paramedic in the back was like "What helps me is God,he gives me so much joy.I suggest you try god,not that occult stuff but the bible believers"Give it a try what do you have to lose.
THEN,I got a phone call from a friend while I was in the hospitals she was basically saying god is real because all the time I would have died but didn't.(suicide)Then I went into how I feel about everyone has a purpose and we are connected in a way.
The she said "What you said is exactly what the bible says" and I was like many religions have a common morale and she was like "No"
she also says that no religion can be proven you have to go by faith.
she also mentioned having a relationship god
It may not be to a high degree but I'm feeling a lot of pressure to convert and it annoying

What pressure do you feel, I mean what's the feeling like. You should read the Bible, I recommend to read the New Testament first and ask questions lots of them. I know nothing about you or your past as far as religion goes, so I want to be careful not to say things that would discourage you or upset you. PM me if you feel you need some questions answered.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Read the Bible, but start at Genesis. It starts there, so start there. First, drink a redbull or something of the sort. That shit is boring. Then read. You'll love the irony.

I agree. Read the bible. Its so bloody boring that if that doesn't turn you off the religion, probably nothing else will.

Go to skeptics annoted bible on the web.
It will help you spot the contradictions the bible is filled with.(also all the bullshit)
