Why I'm Still a Christian

Lek,
When ending a set of nested quotes use a capital "Q" for the final [/quote]. Then Losty will dry her eyes.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

You're on your way. I remember my transition through your stage. Though, I fear the worst has yet to come.

It is important to point out though, if you shave enough off of a square, it becomes a circle, and eventually, speaking about the same object no longer requires references to angles, unless you are describing the properties of another thing may exist but, but is no longer relevant.(February 27, 2015 at 11:18 pm)The Reality Salesman Wrote: You're on your way.

I understand your devotion to your faith, Lek.
But I would say that for anyone to say they are absolutely certain of something and will not change, regardless of what the future may hold and what new thoughts and evidence may appear, is a very dangerous thing. This goes for everything, not just religion. Just my opinion

Though, I fear the worst has yet to come. Good luck. Perhaps you can have it your way and be a better rounded individual with a greater sensitivity to the rights and needs of even non-Christians. That would be enough to satisfy me. But of course you'll have to satisfy yourself/'god'.  RE: Why I'm Still a Christian

Lek, I am impressed and thank you for sharing that. Although I think you're holding on to unnecessary baggage still, you've made some steps in the right direction if we are to "follow the evidence, wherever it leads." Keep up the good work.
