i love this picture. i don't want to take away from the power behind it with my own words but i don't want my own words to be misinterpreted because i don't say them. i believe jesus is the way. jesus isn't my issue; it's people. whether i believe he is the only way doesn't mean i can dictate to others what they should believe and why MY interpretation of MY belief is correct.
many christians are just as morally depraved as people from every other religion that uses it's own belief system to manipulate and control people. there is absolutely no difference to me and i don't think there is to god either. gross.
i am so disgusted with some specific christians right now. when i was in india i was so disgusted with hindus for the exact same reason. christians and hindus and the rest of them, are people who have the potential for incredible selfishness, coercion, and evil. it is just awful what people do to each other.
there is nothing worse than when 'god,' (a version of god), is used to get what someone wants out of fearful, impressionable, and weak people. i feel myself shy away from their interpretation of scripture, and "words" that people have, because all of this is a PERSONAL BELIEF! scripture can be whatever you want it to mean and just because you can argue better than someone who is weaker doesn't mean you're right! gross. gross. gross.

you know how much I luuuuuuuuv manipulation. Not a big fan. I think religion aside, ANYONE who manipulates someone using their soul is in for it.
I'm so glad you are working through this now - instead of showing up at church every Sunday with a plastic smile on your face like the many others . . . just going through the motions, or following in the footsteps of the other sheep who own a religion that was passed down to them - never thinking for themselves or looking for answers from the Truth instead of a church that has evolved through popular culture.
I know older Christians who have no life or joy in them because they never asked the questions for themselves . . .
