Sneaking around?
Everyone here knows I am a Catholic Christian - I’ve been posting here for about 12 years, Bbyrd
Not too proud of being Catholic?
i meant more in general, not you for that aspen, tbh im not even sure where you stand there, it just seems that most Catholics have an...overweening--is the word that comes to mind--desire to be considered a Christian? But lets pick a less personally charged division, say JW or SDA; why the clamor to be considered "Christian" do you think? Iow where did we get the idea that "Christian" is the standard?
Because I don’t act like a jerk about it? Because I don’t shove it down people’s throats?
ya, well, zing i guess
you might note i dont "tell" ppl any facts, i generally ask Qs or post a stated opinion, but that doesnt seem to help much i guess? And i can freely admit to this being
my disconnect, ok; i just dont have the Eve, the emotions, at least in the same way others do. Spent a long time exploring "frozen feelings" in therapy and whatnot, to verify it.
So, im sure you are absolutely right there, and you might do me a huge solid and point out ifwhen i am ever shoving anything down anyone's throat, ok. You asked me earlier what i have learned (from anyone) here, and i would like to think i learned or am learning that, from you and amadeus if i had to pick ppl, but prolly a couple others in there too.
so i dont think the pointed Qs will stop prolly...or maybe they will, but then ill basically be like i am irl, monosyllabic aming friends or mute everywhere else. Which i am ok with that. There is a Scriptural concept, "dont eat while you are there," that i have mostly had to apply here, although fwiw i would be
much more open to even anyone able to admit that their model is much closer to DMA than
life ok
I believe Protestants/Evangelicals are Christian, Bbyrd
well, "Christian" does seem to assume heaven and immortality in "eternity" now, despite Scripture, so who am i to disagree, maybe they are; maybe you are too, ok with me, but we are not exactly examining
why the overarching desire to have that label yet? Dang, gotta run, ill address the rest later as best im able, meant to apologize to you already for the rehab crack ok, didnt come out like i intended at all
im actually much more inclined to hear ppl who have been to wherever at elast once, prison, rehab, psych wards, prison rehab psych wards, whatever...but the Qs get more pointed then, i assume and usually am dealing with a hardballer at that point if you get me
ok tonight pprolly ok
