Subject: The culture war |
Bible Note: I was raised as a Christian. When I did extensive fasting, I was seeking truth. In order to do that, I had to discard all and start over. Everyone on this site would find this statement as untrue but me and that is... I do not see God as the only logical conclusion. In fact, I see no logical conclusion.. but I do see the morality in the bible as haveing a proven track record and I can also see why others fail... Having said that, I also see weaknesses in the bible, but most of them have to do with erroring on the side of passiveness. It seems that CHristians are looseing most of the battles in the Culture War... So much so, I do not believe that getting back what was once had, is no longer achievable. Having said that, I also believe that the more battles they loose, the stronger their conviction. Having said that, looking at the bible, I do not see what weapons they have for the Culture War. Treating people nice does not create nice people, it just makes happy "evil" people. |
