Don't Judge

I am a devout Catholic, and this may suprise you. I am not going to say that you are going to hell, I'm not going to say that you are in the hands of the devil, and I am not going to say that you are evil or anything like that. This is your opinion and you are entitiled to it. Besides, it is not my position to judge you or anyone else. However, I ask that you, in turn, don't judge anyone who is a Christian, Catholic, Jew, ect.. . I pray all goes well with you. Please remember me. With Love - Amelia Barber

God-Speed!

Hi. I am a believer who will be reading you site, since I find the stories of former Christians who have abandoned the faith fascinating. I still love Jesus and will read your "testimony". I was just going to mention though, that you have an excellently formatted site, very well done, but you might want to increase the size of your font. It's a little too small. Paul (St. Paul) told me not to wish you maranatha or God speed, so I will just say have a nice day, James Foard Hello, Thanks for the "have a nice day". Concerning the font, if you are using Internet Explorer, you can change the font size by clicking on "view" then "text size" then "largest". This may help. Otherwise, I am afraid you are stuck with the font size as it is. You see, I like it that way! LOL. Though I am not forbidden from wishing you anything at all, I no longer believe in gods or goddesses, so wishing you God-Speed...

I pity YOU!

I pity you that you do not know the Lord or my personal savior Jesus Christ. I'm sorry I won't be seeing you in heaven. Have fun in Hell, but don't ever forget, Jesus Christ loves YOU! No signature, No email return address. GOD LOVES ME SOO MUCH HE IS THROWING ME IN HELL!!!! Thanks friend!

SORRY!

Dave! The following was posted on your website, but I thought that I would send it as an email as well! I just want to say that I am sorry for the junk you have copped from some individuals in the Church. There is a lot of crap in the Church because the problem with it is that it's full of humans, not perfect angels - though some pretend to be so! I have known Christians who try to force God and speaking in tongues on people before - that shows an insecurity and need to control on people. That is not what Christianity is about! The Bible makes it clear that God is the one who does the work of convincing. We're just called to be His witnesses that is all and to avoid foolish arguements, trying to live peaceably with everyone, but giving an answer to the hope that is in us when asked to. Again, I say a big huge, "SORRY!" to you for any pestering from individuals in the Church. Those individuals don't represent us all though! Just like yourself, they are...

The Devil has a hold of you

Hi! I just wanted to let you know that the devil has a hold of you and that you are a very confused man. I will pray for you every day. Jesus Loves You! Luv Ya Lots, Jennie Jennifer Rasmussen jen_rose13@hotmail.com

RE: RAY

Ray, I appreciate your zeal and the compassionate tone of your letter. I believe your intent is good and your motive above reproach. I notice that you use several fallacious arguments in attempting to prove your points. This I will comment on and address, with your permission, of course. First off, you claim, as do most modern Christians, that we are called to love the sinner but hate the sin. This is not scriptural, though it is a popular teaching: “we are called to love the homosexual but hate the sin of it, just as all sins.” The Bible says: PSALM 18:40 Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies; that I might destroy them that hate me. PSALM 139: 21 Do not I hate them, O LORD, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee? 22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies. Ecclesiastes 3: 8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. PROVERBS 6: 16 These six [things] doth the LO...

You were never a Christian!!!!

You....an ex-Christian? Gasp! Wrong! You can call yourself whatever you want. But you were never truly a Christian. It was in name only. I'm not going to sugarcoat it for you. You're lost, and you are condemned already. Even non-believers know John 3:16, but that does not apply to you. What does apply to you is John 3:18b...but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. You don't believe in Hell either, but you're headed there regardless of what you think. Atheists truly amaze me. You don't believe, but you spend so much time trying to convince others that you are right. I have a clipping from a newspaper about an atheist who used to live hereabouts. He always wrote the editor of the paper whining about Christ and Christians. He did that right up until he was dying. He had a press conference with several local papers from his bed at the hospital the day before he...

You seem like a decent person!

I don't know, you seem like a decent person. I have a lot of questions about some of the same Bible verses you mentioned. I have also experienced that honest questions are usually unwelcome to most professing Christians. All I can say is, just stay as honest as you can. Don't worry about what other people say. If there is a judgment day, (which I believe), we will all stand alone before the Judge. As I read your story, I was struck by the verse that says, "Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled." It certainly seems to describe you. The verse doesn't say when they are filled. What was so great about Abraham? He waited 100 years for the fulfillment of the promise, and after that he offered it back to God. Simply put, he never stopped believing that God was true and faithful to those who want him above all else. Jesus said that he that endures TO THE END shall be saved. (Please excuse the caps, I don't have it...

Please Consider This!

It seems you had an emotionally cleansing, realistic experience at eleven. You once believed in God and fellowshipped with him, but then was disillusioned with the churches, because they didn't follow the Bible, which seemed inconsistent. Here are some thoughts, looking at other sides. I have heard from "secular" sources that of many surviving historical documents, the Bible is quite accurate. The possiblity of obtaining this document written from so many viewpoints, but agreeing on so much is very slim. Differences appear to be in nonimportant parts of the Bible, or taken out of context. Your example, for instance I've heard Judas bought a field, hanged himself in it, and when they cut him down, he burst open. So it could truthfully be said that he hanged himself, and it could also be truthfully said that he bought a field and fell headlong into it. I've heard explanations for nearly every difference in the Bible. You appear to have become more and more dis...

Against Christianity or Christians?

Hey, i've just visitied your site. i was just wondering something. are you against all christians or just christianity? what i mean is, are you making a generalisation that ALL christians are unsupportive, arrogant idiots or what? brad mccoy RE Hello Brad, It is not my intent to make generalizations about people who categorize themselves with Christianity. However, since my de-conversion, I have come across some very interesting characters, to say the least. It does occur to me that to be labeled guilty by association is a bit unfair, but when you belong to a group, any group, and you notice so much nonsense going on in that group, re-evaluation of your participation with that group is warranted. The point is, there are good people, and bad, in any group. That observation alone does not prove, or disprove, the validity or claims of a group. This I will grant. But when so much is fouled up in the way Christianity plays out in reality, coupled with the claim that the Holy Sp...

You have been decieved

This was posted to my message board yesterday, signed by "believer". The person did not leave a real name or email. A lot of you use the excuse for not believing in God on the famous idea of God sending people to hell for no good reason. Look at your lives, no matter what you chose to believe, you are a sinner. No one, except Jesus, can claim to have lived a perfect life. God is holy, whether you say he is or not, and he can have nothing to do with sin. You are a sinner. However, he sent a reedemer to die for you. I think that a lot of people who turn from Christianity do so to justify there way of life. Hey, you don't have to feel bad about any kind of wrong living no matter how small if you don't believe in a God. I am sorry that Satan has decieved you. I was a doubter myself but through my searches I have found that Christ is the only thing that makes sense. And yes, if there truly is a hell I do not want to go there-who in their right mind would. Besides, I wo...
