Have you had a spoonful of Jesus today?

Was any body else accosted by somebody force feeding you "The Word." Given I believe in God Jesus and the Holy Spirt, but I am tired of getting lectured by other groups of people on why dont you wear a cross, why are you acting like a heathan, Stop listening to the devil music.

Then one guy went on to defend Westboro Baptist for Picketing Soldiers funreals and the poepole that were shot at the mall... I had to walk away before I broke this guys nose.

Anybody else have a interesting story or thoughts on this?

Update:

eelia: to your responce you dont like me b/c i am not a pain in the *** that will let a book writen by man completely dictate my life it has good points but it is probably filled with half truths.

When I was in college, there used to be a group of about 5 or 6 Christians (all from the same church) dressed up in suits that would hand out Bibles at different points around campus every semester. That always annoyed me; I went to college to learn, not to be exposed to anyone else's religion. I already have my own.

I don't think I would have been able to stand someone who would defend the picketing of soldiers' funerals, either. I'm sorry you had to go through all that.

Beliefs are like opinions in this way. I'm no Christian, but I have heard this sort of thing for a long time. No one can seem to agree on how they want to interpret the bible.

The people you speak of, I call blow-hards. They defeat the purpose, and give their religion a bad name. sort of like a fundamentalists, or extremists. huh.

you're a lukewarm christian.

might as well not be a christian at all.

EDIT

i like you just fine.

and i agree. the bible is innaccurrate and incomplete. the only truths found in it are made by the interpretation of the words-not the words themselves.

but i do know the content of the bible. and it states that it has those who are on the fence as much as those, like myself, who are on the other side.

do i think you exemplify the christian values that all christians should have? probably. but that's why, contextually from the standpoint of the bible, you are a lukewarm christian.

the fact is, you can't be a hardcore christian, because you know those values are wrong. so what's that say about christianity to you?

because those ******* that you dislike are exactly what the bible calls for, or else they wouldn't be around. they are the side-affect of complete surrender to the bible's teachings.

christianity is false doctrine and those fanatics will exist as long as the bible is taught as "truth"

i'm calling you out of the cult, like a demon out of mary magdelene, brother. come on out!
