Topic 3: The currency of the United States of America is backed by In GOD We Trust. I find this interesting, because non believers use it all the time and it ranks the best on Earth... What do you think would happen if we added In Jesus Christ We Trust, to our currency?

1. No reason to shout. All caps is considered shouting. You'd get more traction if you don't use them in your subject line.

2. Pick a topic, and lets roll with it. You have 3 topics here. My suggestion would be to start a new thread for each.


#3 might be a political one and best discussed there, but I'm not a mod, so I am by no means telling you what to do.

You're probably not going to be very successful doing that here as it is against the rules to proselytize.

The answer to your 1st question is "yes." I am LDS and most definitely Christian. No further analytics are really necessary.

I may be mistaken, but I don't think it's against the rules to proselytize (I don't like that term) in the Christianity forum. It is in the atheist and the Jewish forums, but I don't think it is in the Christianity forum.

No, yes, no. And I'm with BF that no all caps shouting is needed or beneficial here. It tends to make one look like an unstable lunatic. And separate topics is better than three in one.

Also, the most effective and true Christian is the one who does the will of Jesus, without seeking attention or glory. It's in the daily, quiet, consistent, meaningful ways and exchanges that get noticed by God; not the loud, bravo ones. If anything, the latter is what Jesus spoke out against (such as those who pray loudly before other men, seeking attention), i.e. the "alter" ego.

That's a lot of "I"s and me's there buddy. We're nothing compared to what's above. We can be used to further the kingdom, but it's still always about what's above and those around us.

Mirrors can be useful when we need to see ourselves clearly and honestly, to get helpful feedback. But when used for ego purposes, nothing genuine or useful will be seen or learned.

You should share your excitement with God. He's the one who needs to hear it. We really don't.

I'm just planting seeds in faith and hope. I humbly request that you don't cast judgment on me, that's Jesus Christ's Job. Just telling people what I been through, lightly that is
Hope you have a good day!

This is a discussion forum, with a diverse range of people posting - all with their own perspectives and issues

Why it’s not going well is because you are coming across as talking at people rather than conversing with people

Hmmm. Maybe I'm wrong. Perhaps a moderator can tell us for sure.

You can proselytize in here if you want. It seems pretty pointless to me since nearly everybody that posts in this forum is a Christian.

You aren't allowed to proselytize Christianity in the A&A, Judaism, or Islam sub-forums, logically enough. They aren't allowed to come in here and challenge the belief or divinity of God or Jesus.
