I agree! That's what is wrong with this country. Christians have become too quiet and are letting the minority of the population determine what goes on in this country. Just like prayer in schools. We elect public officials by majority vote, but when it comes to moral issues, heaven forbid that we offend someone or hurt someone's feelings. We need to stand up for our beliefs. This country was founded on Christian values and beliefs by God-fearing men. I am amazed that some people get on here calling themselves Christians and condone some of these activities. My Bible clearly forbids these activities.

Don't judge my or anyone's Christianity by your beliefs. I read the KJV, NIV, Greek and Hebrew scriptures, pray as I read that God will open my eyes, mind and heart to HIS word, not what a pastor/clergy gets up in the pulpit and says "this is the way it is." IMO, this is what is wrong with so many Christians today is that they take what the preacher says, the way they see it, as to being 'gospel" and not searching for themselves the Scripture to find the true meaning. There's more to reading God's word...you have to study it, read ALL your references, make notes, and pray.

Do you really feel that Christians are the majority in this country? I know, like in polls, and stuff like that, people say they believe in God or a higher being, but what is that higher being they are talking about? But, when they are asked how many times they attend a service, those numbers are rather low, compared to the number who say they believe in God. So, since the majority do not attend service on Sunday or Saturday, does that them a non-Christian? Just posing a question.

The Bible clearly forbids a lot of things that a lo of Christians still do today. The most common one is attending church on Sunday, when, the Sabbath is clearly on a Saturday, by modern calenders. I guess what I am trying to say is, there has always been different views of what a Christian really is. Different denominations interpret the Scripture in different ways, thus the reason why we have sooo many different denominations in America. Who is to say who is or if there really is a "true religion". All I know is, I can't wait to get to Heaven, and I really hope my mansion is right next door to a lot of people who've said that I ain't gonna make, so I can say...hahaha...told ya so, told ya so!!! LOL

I have to say this...I really have never gotten myself involved in many forums, but I have really enjoyed some of the topics that have been posted lately. I have wished though that some people could accept the fact that they did not agree and didn't get offensive and so harsh sometimes, but that's just human nature to defend something that you feel passionate about! I just hope we can continue to have these "adult" conversations without getting harsh and singling out a certain group of people.
