If you guys have read my posts, and actually pay attention to what I'm saying - you'll notice I don't agree with modern Christianity.

If you ask me why I believe in God, I can't really answer that - besides for it is the faith I was raised on and decided for myself (I know many bible-thumping parents force it on their children) what I wanted to believe. I'm not going to stand up for Christianity, because I don't really care for the religion itself. Or Catholicism. I'm not going to continue repeating myself.


RNB-

Like I said earlier, its not a literal LOVE for the person. Also like I said, I try but usually end up not doing this. I could give a fuck about half of the people I meet.

Thats why I added (As stupid as that might sound), of course you wouldn't see it the way I would since I can't explain it.

What is God? Its a question I ask myself all the time, and to give you an honest answer - I don't know. I'm not going to sound stupid trying to explain what God is when I don't even know myself. I'll talk to my pastor and get back to you on this bro.

I can't answer that question for anyone other than myself, (as I've said multiple times I don't really follow an "organized religion" but my own beliefs about it, and what the Bible says) I don't see what anyone gains in me being a "bad man". I want to be known by my peers/friends/family as a man who tried my best to be good.

Again, I'm not sure how to answer this. I'll get back to you.

Mibs- No, like I said in my reply to RNB I wasn't forced to believe what I believe by anyone. If someone was raised a racist, they would have to choose between staying racist or deciding they don't want to be a racist, I was raised by my Mom who taught me the Bible and eventually I read it myself. I could have chosen to say "Fuck this fake shit, I want to be Buddhist/Hindu/Athiest/Agnostic" , but I chose to believe it and trust my faith. Do you see what I mean?

I respect both of your opinions, just disagree on a few.
