I guess subconsciously I am also talking to myself, not just about how Christians react to me, but also about the wider issue of faith. Just because I have problems with my faith doesn't mean I have to reject everything to do with it. I tend to want a black and white, good or bad, truth or lie knowledge about things. I find it hard to live with maybes. Perhaps part of my journey could be learning to live more comfortably with uncertainty.Lynda Alsfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12260944221255162533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3850953643290828862.post-75001407081784579852010-11-17T01:13:12.224+00:002010-11-17T01:13:12.224+00:00Most of the people I've seen on ExChristian an...Most of the people I've seen on ExChristian and various other atheist sites have not rejected God and Jesus because of narrow-minded people who act like that. Most of the ones I've seen began to have doubts, and then concluded that logically, there is no God, no god or goddess, and no Jesus Christ (some still believe he was a historical character, but not that he was a deity). <br /><br />Usually they become angry at believers after, when they are treated so poorly, but that is not usually the reason they leave the faith. (I am sure there are cases where people leave the faith over the way they are treated, Christians are just like everyone else: some horrible and others wonderful and a lot in the middle.)<br /><br />But the main point of your post is correct: Why don't more Christians act in the love which they claim to believe? This was something that disturbed me even when I was still a believer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
