I have always found that approach very offensive both when I was in the firmly agnostic to almost leaning atheist column to now, a person applying to seminaries. I never found it terribly persuasive. In fact, it drove me in the opposite direction for a long time. How can quotes from the Bible convince you of anything if you don't accept the validity of the book other than from a historical or philosophical perspective (if that)?<BR/><BR/>Actually, it was a broad study of the book with an agnostic almost leaning atheist perspective (but with an open mind) that even made me consider altering my course. Ah, that curiosity thing gets me every time. lol But that doesn't mean that those other folks don't make me mad. I would say that they can talk the talk, but they don't walk the walk. ;)<BR/><BR/>(And now the pressure's on for that 3rd installment! lol)Cheriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15783416806379420376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2653584016016756865.post-388457796319822662009-01-25T12:45:00.000-07:002009-01-25T12:45:00.000-07:00This is well thought.

My experience with Christianity has not been encouraging over the years. <BR/><BR/>I've met some who allow that I can be a "good" person without religion, simply through my innate sense of respect and tolerance for difference. But those people have been in the minority. <BR/><BR/>The vast majority were too busy trying to espouse the "right" way to actually get to know me and understand that the depth of my non-religiousness is as profound and valid as is the depth of their religiousness.Travis Codyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06192526507760146748noreply@blogger.com
