[QUOTE="JJinVA, post: 4444767, member: 80301"] The assumption here is that I've never picked up a Bible. I've read a good amount of it and went to Sunday school as a kid with an extremely religious friend of mines family. Something about the forced, manufactured smiles in my face was a real turn off to me. Everything was so rooted in the super natural that the natural was all but ignored entirely. *shrug* Just wasnt my thing. And i hit rock bottom 10 years ago which is why i stopped drinking alcohol. I found a concept of God that worked for me and was very irreligious. Been sober ever since, (though 80% of the Christians I know could be classified alcoholic or drug addicts but ppl will just say I'm being judgmental when in reality they are much closer to rock bottom than I am)... I've listened to lots of different religious scholars. Jewish Rabbis, Imams (non-radicalized), Buddhists. For me it's always been something that SHOULD be a very personal connection, not a group connection to see who can out-Jesus the next guy, which at the end of the day is what it appears like from my perspective [/QUOTE]
