    Closing my RF Account.

    You all know I'll be reading occasionally. ;)

    Closing my RF Account.

    It's not like I've been banned. :tsk: I can always come back and post if at some point I feel it's in my best interests to do so.

    Closing my RF Account.

    Sometimes you just have to do what you have to do. This is one of those times. Sacrifice is not just a religious term after all. Let's just say I love my children more than anything or anyone. I do appreciate that some of you truly will miss me. So many times I have wondered if I post only...

    Closing my RF Account.

    Within the next two weeks I will be asking the moderators to close my account here at RF. I am entering into the turbulent stages of a total life overhaul, which requires that I let many things go, and let go of many things. RF being one of them. My time here on the whole has been good. I've...

    I know. I often wonder why I bother, but then I have so many hours to fill at work each night. The forum helps keep me occupied... and awake.:sleep:

    ex-christian=never christian???

    Apparently Christianity in no way owns the God relationship. And by 'in no way', I mean in no way.

    ex-christian=never christian???

    Because of course the 'recipient' couldn't possibly have been cultivating, watering, tending, pruning, dusting.... etc.... in the proper way. :rolleyes: Sorry. You lose too. It's the way of the self serving presumption, I suspect.

    Christian in the non-religious sense

    I'm thinking more of a personal experience kind of thing than a rational arguement kind of thing, but that would be because of my own personal experience/s I guess. :shrug:

    Believing for comfort

    I personally find "As Iffing" to be a FAR better choice than 'believing'. It's kind of like hope in action, and doesn't end in disolusionment and breakdown like belief does when everything falls apart. You always knew your "As If" was a stance. Best to take the stance of a 'Warrior'! Fight the...

    Believing for comfort

    I see that people (choose to) believe (in) all kinds of things for the sake of comfort. *the economy will get better. *the economy will get better when... (fill in the blank) *I will find work in my field after college and make a good living. *I will be happy when.... ___________ *things will...

    ex-christian=never christian???

    It's the easiest way to explain... problematic... things away. (without actually having to explain, or understand, anything at all)

    If Jesus came back in 1999.....

    Well.... he knowingly let his parents walk for three days thinking he was with them when he wasn't..... :areyoucra So he let's the internet software think he's 13 instead of 12.... :shrug:... eh?

    If Jesus came back in 1999.....

    I'm quite sure he'd manage to get banned from every christian forum on the net in less than 6 months. Who knows. He might (let them) do it just for ***** and giggles. ;) Besides that, he might actually survive RF. As long as he didn't proseltize. Or post in the Satanism DIR. :p Then he'd...

    Christian in the non-religious sense

    What if 'Him' signifies 'The Way' of Christhood (at large) and, as such, 'believe' means believing in the... power... of that Way (or Life-or Way of Life) (ie., that Christhood is attainable by anyone, and can be lived out by anyone) as opposed to 'believing in' the existance of a one and only...
