That's a hoot. Wasn't it you ..yes sure it was..who went into total denial over David and the Shewbread? You may see it as bullying but I was trying to get you to understand what the text actually said as distinct from you making stuff up. And you simply such you fingers in your ears and mouthed denial ever after.

Bullying aside, you are one one doing the lying and misrepresenting - about what's in your own Bible. I couldn't care less what Christians say - they are the ones doing the lying.

Personally I have been on every spiritual forum in the world, & witnessed nearly every good hearted soul in the world come forth, to tell their story of a spiritual visitation from God or an Angel etc, & without fail they were all instantly called 'crazy' & abused into leaving, for even thinking that there is such a thing as God or Angels etc. So critics rule the world & keep it in complete ignorance. I don't say that to me mean or hateful. It is just the truth that I have witnessed in my lifetime.

So no one really changes. The spiritual people remain spiritual & go away. And the critics remain the same & simply wait till new victims are lured in to tell their truth to the world

You mean the one where I corrected you, you refused to see it, declared victory and told everyone I "dodged" it? Now you're here saying I'm lying?

Really. Take a pulse of this forum. Just look at it honestly. The conservative Christians are ganged up on here nonstop. We are mocked and attacked. There is a mod that says she was FINE with it. So your description of things seems a little hollow.

Good. And now open up your mind to seeing that we are all seeking the truth. We just don't agree that you have it.

Be honest. There is no way you're seeking truth here. Not even close.

Wrong. Just wrong. You can't conceive of anything besides the "truth" you believe in. How narrow minded.

There have been some that openly(here) declared no way of knowing if there have been more.
I do know that my opinion of Christians would be severely damaged if a lot of what I read here aligned with people I see and know in "real life".
So, to answer the question, I haven't changed my mind unless I am on this forum...then try to wipe the memory off when out and about.
I know that's not exactly what you were asking (has anybody switched 'sides'?) but is a response to "changed their minds")

I'm glad to hear the opinion.

And if I understand what you're saying, I have a similar experience. Since I live in America, most of my friends here are christian. They're good people. Some very good. And they are not in the business of changing minds. If they do change minds, it's because of their behavior, not their evangelizing. It's a good balance for me compared to posters like BF who present a very negative image of christianity.
