Welcome to Gaia! ::

The concept of Liberal christians is still enw to me and somewhat strange. If I were to talk about this with my friend (She's REALLY religious) she would tell me they're not real christians. Not very tolerant. I think the Idea of a liberal christian is good but not a large enough number. Anyway, would these people argue that they are christians or would they agree with my friend that they're not completely christian? Also what stops so many christians from being more aceptive and stuff? It kinda sucks that people arn't as aceptive of other thigns don't you agree?

Now what was it Judis (sp?)said to Jesus is JEsus Christ Supre Star? "Everything you say gets twisted some other way" ? Somethign like that. That's a good movie, I really like it. Anyway sometimes people have a bad habit of wisting things into something else. Also there the "REspect thy neighbour" yet it's not so easily followed and rarly is. These fundies who say everything they don't like is evil or satanic and the realy pushy jahovas witnesses who keep trying to tell you all about god and all that stuff.

**Pats.** all is well, but hold off on the JW cracks... and most other cracks. Even I try to hold off my catholic cracks.

Jehova's Witness.

My friend was JW, now he's a shaman. I was LDS, now I'm neo-pagan. And pentagrams... are you crazy, woman? I wouldn't keep a pentagram anywhere near me. Of course... I've got my pentacle around my neck, so I guess I'd set them off just as bad. xd

Oh yes, no disrespect meant by the 'are you crazy, woman?' comment.

EDIT: Red text was word misuse corrected.

Heh heh...JW's.

Oops, off topic.(seriously, Jehovah's Witnesses are cool.)

Liberal Christians are perfectly normal. One of my friends you wouldn't know he was Christian until he told you, cause he's so laid back about it. That, in my opinion, is the best kind of religious person. Not pressing their beliefs, just allowing for yours to exist, and making debate, not argument. Studies have shown that humans stop "listening" after their blood pressure reaches a certain level, like in an argument.

Oops, off subject.

I suppose I could be considered a liberal Christian...well, more like a very liberal conservative. xp
I think abortion should be legal in certain cases (in case of incest, rape, or if the mother physically couldn't handle childbirth), and I don't believe that everything in the Bible happened as written.
For example, evolution. I think God created the universe...billions of years ago. And I think God lets life evolve. I mean, I believe in miracles, but the Earth is not six thousand years old as some people have "calculated."

Also, if I find out a friend is an atheist or pagan, I'm not like "OMG HEATHEN!!!!11" You don't preach to me, I don't preach to you. Comparing beliefs is interesting, though.

You've made a good friend this day. I agree with this sentiment exactly... except... I am pagan...
