Very true, Jellybean. What it boils down to is that religion is only what you make of it. You say we're unworthy; that if we don't conform to your ways, that we're hell-bound because your god so deems it fit. Such isn't very open minded, and if it indeed does reflect the true nature and will of god, reflects that he is a very rigid disciplinarian.
You counter my claim that most modern Christians are sinply indoctrinated from birth to be jus that. You claim that I practive intolerance; yet I am the one lashing out at the pre-established status-quo... I am the one who is trying to spread a new way of lookin at things and you're lashing out intolerably at me.
"I have not been brainwashed my will is my own..." you truly believe that, I belive you; but you're wrong. If you'd been born into a world apart from religion, you'd be atheist. Without church influence, everyone would be atheist. Can you TRULY tell me that you family raising you a Chrisitian had NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR BEING ONE?
