User ID: 46792931 Canada 09/13/2013 09:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Question why did you become a Christian and did you follow Jesus after you committed. It is not Christ fault if you did not get a good teaching in the Lord. It is all about Jesus and please recommit in these last days. If not, you are a living example of the apostasy which comes right before Jesus returns like a thief in the night. Possibly you will be asked if you took this message seriously by Jesus himself as every knee shall bow and head fall before the Lord, God loves us all and we only have to believe in Jesus Quoting: nukemasterjm 46810593 When you were born you had no beliefs, you were curious, you were open; but beliefs were imposed on you by parents, teachers, religious leaders etc. And it is these people, who are unconsciously the source of ignorance. You believe what you believe only because that is what you were born into and that is what was taught to you. Were you taught about all the other religions? I'll bet you weren't. I know I wasn't!! There's a very good reason why the bible says: "Suffer little children to come unto me." Yes, so they can get them under their mind control program before they reach the age of critical thinking. Once you can present us with evidence that proves with 100% accuracy that what you are preaching is correct, we definitely will reconsider. Till then, adios my friend. I simply no longer care to be involved in any FEAR BASED RELIGION/S!! beebee |

What I have found is that this lifetime is a solo journey and each person will accordingly follow his/her own individualized path. The one that is best tailored and suited for the needs of that individual. What is beneficial for one is not necessarily going to be beneficial for another - and vice versa. So it's ideal that everyone follows what works best for them and acknowledge and appreciate that others will be doing the same. Perfectly said! |

Sorr y for the disappearance but I was banned for some reason . Still am at home, but I am on the road now, so I can get through, Quoting: Anonymous Coward 37440387 Love the other posters who are on a similar path as our own. I believe that the creator's truth will be found in the creator's creation. Look around at all that IS and see what is true about it....what are the universal laws, what does GOD bless and curse? The only way to get any insight into the nature of the creator observation without AND WITHIN. What seems to violate the conscience of humans universally? The creator planted that in our psyche, and if it offends us universally, then it must offend GOD as well.. Look beyond culture, age, religions etc...to the very heart of humanity and learn how we are like our Creator. Theses revelations will show us the face of an otherwise unknowable GOD. I am not sure that I agree with this. If God created everything, why be offended? |

It just never felt right to me. What you propose is I that I recommit because I am afraid for my soul which I am not. I appreciate your effort though, really I do. But why would I return to something that did not work for me the first time around? |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 46142426 United States 09/14/2013 10:36 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I honestly done understand how anyone can do any real research into the new world order, ufo's and the occult and not become a Christian. it seems utterly impossible to me. you must not have done a proper amount of research sorry. it invevitably comes down to a simple misunderstanding of the Christian faith and ones own personal problems and sentiments on Hell, the own sin in their lives and ignorance surrounding such topics Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46410817 your mind control is really showing. Jesus created NO religion, was against it and you are not special for having it,, it is the most dividing religion in the world. Because you see any body that is not christian, no matter the reason as lost and burning in hell forever.... |

Here’s todays splash of reality! Self-enlightenment is the path to true spirituality, but the road is long and difficult. Conversely, religion and God are easy paths to follow.They require no real understanding of the universe or of 'self'. 'God' is an emotional crutch for people with little self-worth, and who crave a sense of belonging in a chaotic universe. John 10:27 'My sheep hear my voice and follow me...' All Bible-Tards are sheep. Sheep by name and sheep by nature. You have discovered your true selves. Baaaaaaaa! 6 months UK then 6 months USA. I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 46556554 United States 09/17/2013 05:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am in my fifties now, female and a former Christian. Quoting: zip50 I stopped being a Christian and became a more spiritual person about 8 years ago. I had, what I believe, was a spiritual awakening. That is when I started learning more about aliens, The NWO, 911 etc etc..all the things that brought me to GLP in the first place. It was like I was guided to find more truths after my spiritual awakening. I am not an atheist. I believe in a creator. But in no way am I a Christian. I don't believe in hell. I don't believe that a loving God would send me to hell for being human. I hate the blackmailing and threats from some Christians. I would be interested to hear why some of you are no longer Christians and if one event led you to where you are today or if you just changed over time. Please share your experiences. I was never a Christian, technically, but I did join the Jehovah's Witnesses sect, and then left a few years after I joined because I realized that the whole thing is a scam. I started doing my own research into Christianity because I was curious how the religion's members could actually believe that the Most High impregnated a human female, when one can clearly read for themselves that the Most High even forbade the angels from mixing with humans genetically (Levitical law about not mixing unlike seed with unlike seed), and that He punished angels who did in fact impregnate human females. That and other things caused me to investigate what I had been told. As for the JW religion, what made me investigate them was how they dealt with the child molestation charges they were facing at the time. The fact that they didn't want the victims to go to the authorities (and how they dealt with their members who did) made me see that the religion was not something the Most High had any dealings with because the org was protecting known child sex offenders. After researching everything for about a year, I knew that I HAD to leave the Jehovah's Witness religion, and neither Christianity or any other religion has been able to serve as a suitable replacement. Religion is a lie, plain and simple. I was raised as a christian, I did the same as you...and came to the same conclusions. Do your own research, is the simple answer to this problem. |

They cant help it..their God is a monster and cannot get or keep friends without threatening to burn them alive forever. What a loser. Its a good thing THAT God is NOT "THE" God..the creator. |
