You'd think that at some point people could be mature enough to discuss religion and realize that there will be lots of people who don't agree with your personal beliefs. I wish people could just share without having to be proven right, or prove someone else wrong! _________________ " If we had done as the kings told us five hundred years ago, we should all have been slaves. If we had done as the priest told us, we should all have been idiots. If we had done as the doctors told us, we should all have been dead. We have been saved by disobedience. We have been saved by the splendid thing called independence, and I want to see more of it. I want to see children raised so that they have it." Robert Ingersoll www.xanga.com/elephantheart |

mere::surmise wrote: guys - i just wanted to hear some opinions what i dont like is how some of you are mad about interest in a topic; i think we can handle this as the mature people we are. if you dont agree with the thread, dont post. its simple. and I think it's wrong to assume that just because some people don't see things the same as you & mention that then they are "mad".Not one comment has been made in anger in this thread. The fact that every religious thread ever on here has turned into a fight is proof that despite having mature people involved doesn't stop things getting heated because religion is a super sensitive subject to people. _________________

Have I not handeled it maturely? Ok, it was a mistake on my part for not reading that post completely, I think I just scanned over it. I wasn't mad about your interest in the topic, I never said I was. Please don't twist my words around. I thought I was welcome on these boards, but if someone doesn't like my pots and wans me to stop posting, fine. Then I will stop posting. Thank You. |

The Christian church does have a lot of problems with unity - for the most part. I think it stems from our human desire to know it all. I have come to the point in my spiritual life that I can accept - for the most part - that no denomination will ever be fully correct. After all, we cannot know everything. Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis illustrates this very well. Those are only my opinions and I could go on about how we have separated ourselves so far from the world that we are now perceived as a clique... which I don't believe Christ would have wanted. I do see steps for unity and outreach being made these days... and I think that is good. _________________ Kyle |

wow, yall...wow. i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry. i didnt know, i didnt know, i didnt know. usually when i discuss religion with other people, it goes very well. i'm sorry i assumed a message board would turn out the same way. just forget it. forget i even said it. EVERYONE IS WELCOME ON THE BOARD. dont stop posting because you think i told you not to. know that if i knew you all felt this way, i wouldnt have said anything. i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry. i didn't know i didn't know i didn't know. would you feel better if i just deleted the thread? _________________ you remind me of baby kangaroos swimming in a sea of semi-crunchy hamburger pickles. {melodies} {ramblings} {visuals} |

Eh, I see nothing wrong with your thread in the slightest bit. This is the "General" area and nothing should be off limits to discuss. It was a simple poll. I went to a southern baptist church back home, and now I'm looking for a new church in my college town. Hopefully I'll find a good baptist or bible church to attend. |

Yep. That's cool. I'm looking for a church, but I'm not sure what kind. I was a Southern Baptist kid and would like to see what the other denominations are like. This is my first real taste of religious freedom... though I am exaggerating. _________________ Kyle |

Heh, my family's a pretty big supporter of the SBTC and all. If you're church shopping, try out Central Baptist Bryan or Grace Bible Church. I've heard they're pretty popular. (Edit: Heh. Sorry Euphoria.) |
