Then how can such a person be called Christian? You may label you and your ilk "deep thinking" all you like, but taking what you like from the Bible and discarding what you don't is a faith in yourself. Go erect a church to self. I bet you and him would enjoy that.

He knows from the Bible. He doesn't go and look himself in the mirror and ask himself what the reality of God is. He's not that arrogant.

I've never said I was a Christian.

God forbid....

If it was in the way, you put it there.

Why would you call life crap? This is my problem with religion. It promises this amazing afterlife to justify so much human suffering. But if you accept it and keep quiet, you'll be rewarded in heaven.

You're wasting your precious few years of existence on this nonsense. Enjoy your life, as when it is over, there is nothing else. Let's make this word, this life a better place instead of waiting for a payoff that never comes.

Your label. Not mine.

Some of us don't limit ourselves. Nor do we limit God. I can find God in a redwood or a rock or in the sight of an Sharp-shinned Hawk tweaking a feather to guide his flight. He reveals Himself in the most wonderful places. Seek Him. If you find you can't catch your breath because of the wonderfulness of it all you'll know you're on the right track.
