Don't kid yourself my dear. Please don't. This is a forum set up for the discussion of Christianity. I happened to have had 25 years of experience in and around the religion and find it interesting to discuss it. NOTHING more.

I'm so sure. 25 years of experience in religion and you happen to find Christianity particularly interesting even though you don't believe in it? And you argue about it everyday on these forums? And not to mention the fact that you always have something negative to say about Christian topics almost as if your obsessed with the Bible and the word of Jesus Christ? Someone's kidding all right. And it's not us.

Um...I was a Christian for 15 years and the previous 15 years before that I was groomed to a be a Christian growing up in a Christian home. I am no longer for the past 8 years or so.

I don't believe in Islam, Greek, Roman or Egyptian mythology either but I am on other forums discussing those too. This is a forum to DISCUSS Christianity whether one believes in it or not. Get it? Not believing does not equal not interested.

INDMB, I have a strong feeling that you are simply lost. I don't know what happened to you between those 8 years and why IN THE WORLD you think that all of sudden Jesus Christ has given up on you (which is what most former Christians think). But I want to let you know, he's THERE FOR YOU. He always has been. All you have to do is pray. I know somewhere deep down inside of you, there's still a Christian. Don't let go of that. Keep it. Manifest it. Somewhere along the lines, you just lost faith in this crazy menacing world. Come back to him. He's waiting.

Cute.... But seriously, do you really drink Vita Malt AFTER eating the two together? YUCK!!

I know kinda off topic, but for you who guys don't know what Vita Malt is: http://www.sodapopstop.com/products/detail.cfm?link=288
