(51,076 posts)I guess that goes with my non religious training. Actually I'm not religious so all religions seem odd to me. If it floats someones boat let it float it, thats not a judgment for me to make, it just doesn't float mine, is what I'm saying.
Anyone who holds a conversation with God and discusses things with him is going to be given a wide berth from me. I sure wouldn't be giving him or anything that he is part of any of my hard earned money thats for sure
I was raised southern Baptist but about the crusty old age of 14 I lost my religion. Lost my religion when, when I'd hear the preacher say stuff like that congregation down the road a piece were going to hell cause they didn't believe like he did. These were some of my friends families he was talking about so it got me to thinking and reading and once I realize there were literally thousands of different religions I decided they were all a scam. 50 years later and nearing the end of my life and I can't say I regret my decision made all those year ago.
Whose God would someone suggest I believe is the right one? Then give me a reason or two of why some ot the others don't make the grade then I might, NO forget that, thats never going to happen.
I'm with religion as I am with guns. I believe it is your right 'to be or to own' just don't push either off on me.
In the way I live my life except in believing I'm probably as good a Christian as you'll find anywhere. I live by the ten commandments as I was taught that at an early age and its done me good, I'm happy.
Peace and sure hope I didn't hurt anyones feelings by what I wrote and I hope it doesn't reflect in fewer seeing me as a friend. Cause I love you all LGBT, Brown, Black, Yellow, Red, White and what ever other colors I'm missing here. Olive maybe would be considered a color too.
