speak for yourself I am Canadian eh... we are the most multicultural country in the world...... we have zero christian radio stations and I think maybe 1 christian tv station.
Truth be told I don't hate atheist or agnostics or those who believe differently than I, for who am I to judge? who am I to think that I know so much and know better? I am not, yet I hate being lumped into a category b/c you don't know me... you just know that I believe that there is something out there that created us and this world. And you judge me and my choice to believe that. It hurts b/c you didn't take the time to get to know me.
And you put up walls of anger and frustration and make claims about who you think I am and what you think I will do. I am not like that. I have enough questions and concerns of my own, I have enough doubts and a bit of knowledge to think that maybe just maybe you're on to something and maybe just maybe you have it right.
Also I have fear for those who ask questions and get information and then scoff at it. I have fear that if there really is a god (I do believe there to be one) then what happens to me if I shared info with someone and it was wrong or if I didn't do it right and now that person has knowledge. That freaks me out to be honest. The bible states we will be judged on what we know. Well if we know about God and there is a God and we chose to deny him then what??? really then what? Where does it put everyone that learned and turned their back, and where does that put me if I played a part in that? That scares me.
But then if God is full of mercy and grace and can redeem all things... that is if there is a God then we should all be good right?
I suppose we will never know for certain until the day comes and we leave this earth.

D9 I can provide just as many if not more instances of agnostic or atheist influence on a society. All I have to do is turn on a television, computer or go to a theater and there I can see so much against God and the bible. It goes both ways.
But really how do you justify putting all who believe into one category, how can you be so bias and racist to assume that all who believe are the same. You claim to hate christianity yet you out of everyone spend more time in here pouring through the posts and spewing crap towards those who believe.
You have no idea who any of us are, you see we believe and you just spit your words at us, and yell that we're corrupting and condemning you and your right to chose and your beliefs. You have no idea. Yet you hate, you hate so much.

I think it would be safe to say that ALL who believe in a God believe in prayer and faith.
This is untrue. You stated all people who believe in a God believe in prayer and faith. Well I believe in the existence of a God and do not believe in prayer or faith (faith in the way it was used in the sentence.) Most other deists would probably agree with me on this point. Unfortunately (though it is to no fault of your own) I fear that religion has hijacked the concept of God and any time God is ever used it is never used in any other way other then in a religious sense which angers me greatly. Imagine how it angers me and I'm an Atheist. The very fact that we're even talking about "God" pisses me off. I'm not interested in being part of anyones make believe magic world. It's 2007 for fucks sake. my guess is that you D9 never had children.... and if you did they obviously thought that they were bad b/c they never got a visit from the tooth fairy, the easter bunny or santa claus, I am also guessing they never got to go trick or treating either. *sigh* or maybe just maybe you weren't allowed to as a child. Either way you're bitter about Christianity and think it's make believe, maybe you're right though, just maybe it is all make believe and all made up but really, I don't push my beliefs down your throat nearly as much as you try to throw yours at me. |

Spirit of the West ~ Home for a rest Home For A Rest
Spirit of the West -
you'll have to excuse me, i'm not at my best
i've been gone for a month, i've been drunk since i left
these so-called vacations will soon be my death
i'm so sick from the drink i need home for a rest.
we arrived in december and london was cold
we stayed in the bars along charing cross road
we never saw nothin' but brass taps and oak
kept a shine on the bar with the sleeves of our coats
you'll have to excuse me, i'm not at my best
i've been gone for a week
i've been drunk since i left
and these so-called vacations
will soon be my death
i'm so sick from the drink
i need home for a rest
take me home....
euston station the train journey north
in the buffet car we lurched back and forth
past old crooked dykes through yorkshire's green fields
we were flung into dance as the train jigged and reeled
you'll have to excuse me, i'm not at my best
i've been gone for a week
i've been drunk since i left
and these so-called vacations
will soon be my death
i'm so sick from the drink
i need home for a rest
take me home....
by the light of the moon, she'd drift through the streets
a rare old perfume, so seductive and sweet
she'd tease us and flirt, as the pubs all closed down
then walk us on home and deny us a round
you'll have to excuse me, i'm not at my best
i've been gone for a month
i've been drunk since i left
and these so-called vacations
will soon be my death
i'm so sick from the drink
i need home for a rest
take me home....
the gas heater's empty, it's damp as a tomb
the spirits we drank now ghosts in the room
i'm knackered again, come on sleep take me soon
and don't lift up my head 'till the the twelve bells at noon
you'll have to excuse me, i'm not at my best
i've been gone for a month
i've been drunk since i left
and these so-called vacations
will soon be my death
i'm so sick from the drink
i need home for a rest
take me home!

its my understanding that all religions mix and match. they evolve, like anything else.
if they are to mix and match and to evolve then wouldn't one naturally think that religion would be like a revolving door with those that agree with the change and stay and those that get annoyed and walk out? I think religion is a personal journey as well as how we seek God.... I believe that yes we need fellowship but really it's about our own personal relationship and the church and religion tends to get in the way of this and cause corruption and distortion as we learn about someone elses idea of who or what God is |

I have been that sensitive soul member before and have been on boards where I was very bothered by this and what I had as a score, it annoyed and bothered me tremendously. Then I had to step back and realize that this is the internet.... it's not who we are and I just needed to relax about the whole thing.
