    I don't trust people to tell me anything about gods. If any gods want to come tell me about themselves my door is open. But humans? Hell no. Humans can't even come to a consensus about how many carbs we should eat in a day.

    :D I hear some of them are also still arguing about who shot first.

    Han shot first. Case closed.


    Obviously Han shot first. Screw Greedo. He had it coming.

    I was polite about it, told her I wasn't interested, and then she started throwing her bibles and crucifixes at me.

    Does she have memes that actually "throw bibles and crucifixes" at you? Just curious how that was done via a PM.

    Sort of off topic... but I taught one of my bosses how to give a high five through email.

    As a server my favorite is the Sunday crowd that sometimes leaves a pamphlet about coming to Jesus instead of a tip after being a demanding prick and racking up a large bill. Yeah, that'll make me go to church.

    But to answer your question, I haven't gotten that on here but then I don't think I've been terribly vocal about it here either. There's a lot more arguments over on my horse forum.

    lol, my pastor has actually preached against doing this. He told us stiffing someone on a tip is not a good way to start a dialogue.

    A message to any believers that may ever meet the God, if you meet it put in a good word for me. K thx bye.

    um, I need someone to put in a good word for me. Your pic made me have some not very christian thoughts inappropriate for a happily married christian woman :blushing:

    Actually, for those who are saying that Christians should keep their beliefs to themselves, it is actually a part of our belief system to share our faith with others. To keep it to ourselves is to be disobedient to God. However, that being said, there is a right way and a wrong way to go about it. When we are sharing our beliefs with an individual who is CLEARLY not open to hearing about it, we are told to back off of the talk and share by our walk instead. There is no need to even tell them they are being prayed for...they couldn't care less. It's enough that God and I know they are being prayed for.

    This is pretty much exactly what I was going to say.

    Well said!! The "Turn or Burn" mentality pushes people away. "Be Doers of the Word and not hearers only" Much more is caught than taught!

    In life my friend people wherever is to do with god or drugs they will try there best to force it on you, there for making them feel more comfortable it's like when you go to a party and you show up with all the lads it's a great time buzzing around etc but turning up to the party by you self it's different probably not the best example haha but hope you understand but then again I could say you are trying to get more people on your side so to speak therefore meaning you will feel more comfortable and feel like its okay and fine another example 10years ago being gay was seen as being ill now it's seen as normal

    If I kill a fox it's seen and know as being sick if I get a group following me and enough numbers its seen as a sport

    The government do it all the time if they want to so something they will but of course they make out it was the mass whom choose it like Iraq they wanted in but couldn't just go in as we would loss respect so the government cause a Problem to get a Reaction then come up with there Solution

    You can do any thing in this world you want you just need to convince enough people that what your doing is rite so cause a problem see the reaction and come up with your solution which is what you want to do simple

    And say goes to people who believe or the ones who don't the more people follow one the more it wil feel natural and will fell right

    I put it to you tho where does one learn morals right and wrong you may say parents then where do they etc etc then you may say teachers or pays them the government so who teaches you mortals well the government are tryin there best but we are born with that In build may come from god may not but they are trying to convince us what we feel naturally is wrong and before you no it are trapped

    Think outside the box then turn the box inside out and get back in I say :)

    Shows to me if you don't believe in god then don't but why feel the need to share your thoughts could come across as your trying to convince others your right to make you feel happier and as for people that do they share there thoughts due to it saying to do so in the book they call the bible

    A religion that requires you to go and recruit others is a cult in my book.

    You shouldn't even start that conversation with a total stranger, only someone who you have known for some reasonable time. Friends can talk to each other about whatever, but you should not be targeting people you've just met, it's doing your religion a lot more harm than good believe you me...

    I'm gonna say that if one is "recruiting" people to be believers... then they are probably not doing it right. The whole point is to show the love and mercy of God and to tell people about that and what we have seen done in our lives as a result... not just to sit peoples butts in pews and shove an offering plate under their noses.

    Have you had any unnecessary badgering from people wanting to change you, because they aren't exactly happy about your lack of belief on this website?
    A couple of days ago, a woman messaged me and asked me if I had a moment to talk about Christ with her.. (Didn't know I was on ChristianMingle.com) .. and I politely told her that I was not interested. When she went on to ask me why, I made the mistake. I told her I wasn't religious, and it's just not something I'm interested in talking about.

    That's when the "I will pray for you" comments.. I was polite about it, told her I wasn't interested, and then she started throwing her bibles and crucifixes at me.

    Just wondering if you've had any issues on here.
    I normally don't talk about what I do or don't believe in, but that was pretty much unavoidable. I'd rather let her know why I wasn't interested instead of ignoring her all together. I figured that would have been more rude.



    Which God was she trying to convert you to ? There are so many :)
