Holding back data?
In chat you posted a significant message from him. Is there some reason you did not quote it in the OP?

Re: Holding back data?
I fail to see why you think I am holding back data.
​
Well, when you created this PNT you had JUST posted the relevant message in chat.
​
What makes you think I am trying to somehow protect Christians?
​
The fact that you censored the content you posted in chat when you created the PNT.
​
I certainly don't go all out to indict organized Christianity as being all fouled up, as you would probably do!
​
Again with unfounded assertions. I assume you can show where I have "indict organized Christianity as being all fouled up"?

well that's not the quote but...
It is a beginning. The quote I remember went into specifics of questioning and searching for a founded faith.
​
I personally feel that Matthew was not given the love he so desperately sought through the church groups, but without knowing more details, I am not prepared to indict CCOI Christianity, which you yourself have said "teaches ignorance."
​
Love may have been an issue, but if so, I doubt it played a big part. Love is very often simply a Shaitan's Bargain, a conditional deal. More importantly, was he taught that it is okay to question, to listen to Marilyn Manson, to disagree with dogma, to even reject the church's teachings?
