My real intent is to know how people know they know Jesus. As a parent if Jesus is real, I must know. Although I am more open to the boogie man or Bigfoot being real if Jesus exists I must know. Nothing in this world could be more important than knowing if Jesus is real. If Jesus is real and he is I have no choice to follow and love him. I gladly retract my remarks about ”maddening behavior’ -Voosh . I also apologize for my inability to properly quote posts of others. I've said some 'brash' things in Chat. I will not retract them these. If this gets me banned or pushed away so be it. However, I understand the general comments about my opinions I posted on public forum - be nice or go home.
Make no mistake I am an Atheist. I live in the USA(Brownsburg, Indiana). In the USA christianity is the most popular religion. Because of this I must focus my concern on christianity. I feel we intelligent adults must do everything within their power to end the spread of christianity immediately. Just as we would work to quickly stop the spread of small pox we must do the same with christianity. Short of violence I am open to any available methods to do this. I feel my role is a parent and the demand life places on me to protect my daughter are demands I take immediate action. I have not found my seat, my niche within ”atheism’ or anti-christian movement yet. I am not sure where I belong, what I can do or how I can help. I know posting here is not the best use of my time. Briefly, this 2,000 religion based on the misconception of men has nothing positive to lend to my daughter or myself. I will also go a step farther and say it has nothing positive to offer society. The grip christianity has held on this country has and will only continue to drag us down in every aspect of our lives. If no one will step forward I will carry the burden. Again I am not suggesting violence but I am more than a typer. I am receptive to hear about or become part of good ideas. Not for me but for my family. (Everyone knows my position now. No one in the future can ever again imply I attempted to mislead them).
However, on the off chance I am mistaken. If every other religion is/has been wrong and christianity is real I have no concern admitting my mistakes. If my option is to suffer in hell or live in happiness whit my family it is not a difficult decision. It is my opinion if god is good and Jesus is real and the pictures churches paint of him in 2007 are accurate I must know him. I must be saved. It is also my opinion if this is real and not ancient mythology Jesus wants to meet me and must be working somehow behind the scenes to assist me in knowing him.
Before I can be saved I must know how others know and understand there religion is correct. I must know how someone knows Jesus is real and the boogie man is not. I must know how someone knows Jesus is real and Thor is not. I must know how someone knows Jesus is real and Allah is not. I am not looking for personal opinions. This issue is too important to be based on personal opinion alone. Hard evidence is demanded in ever other sphere of out lives. A psychologist or doctor who told us a pill would extend our lives or enlarge our penises we would demand proof and evidence. For some reason religion is the only taboo topic that is off limits to critique and a necessity to clearly demonstrate with logical evidence it is true. This blows my frick’n mind. Again, I offer more about who I am so no one can accuse me of being misleading.
I apologize for not quoting properly - you did call me out on this once before. I am not very good at articulating my thoughts to paper. Nor am I terribly internet savvy. I feel much more can be accomplished face to face. However, I opted to be here and you allow me to stay. I will do my best to learn the INs and OUTs of posting on this forum.
I am receptive to speaking with anyone on the phone to address or answer my concerns or meeting in paper. I will gladly give out my personal information in PM at my risk.
If I violated any rules and an apology is not acceptable to mend my evil deeds I shall accept the closing of my thread - although I know it is crap.
I do not wish to digress from my original message. I wish to pick up with my last questions from there. If anyone has any questions or concerns with what I have said here address them in Private
