All Over The Place...

Well…Gotta say I am a little not confused, but asking some questions…Had conversation at work with a guy who is not a Christian, but is very spiritual and believes wholeheartedly in God, I’m not sure which God though, Christian, Allah, or his own…Anyways, he went through some crap and messed himself up a bit and swears God turned him around…As he said, God “hit with a 2 x 4 in the head in a loving way”…I found that funny…I believe him though…I really believe God smoked him right in the head with a board and straightened him out…
Another issue…this guy has a huge problem with religions and hates the three main ones the most…He thinks Christians are a bunch of hypocritical, clicky, narrow-minded people…He thinks the Muslims are a bunch of radical nutballs…“Who is anyone to say what way is right and wrong?” he asked me…”Who are we to say what the right way to live is?” He told me that is you are striving to be the best person you can be and are a good member of this world (not society because he hates society for personal reasons…I do too frankly…) then you will be judged accordingly…Interestingly enough he thinks Jesus was a wonderful man, but he just hates the people Jesus hangs around with…Needless to say it was a good conversation…We agreed on the fact that Christians suck and that judging someone seems to be a way of life now in the world…But it just left me thinking, is Christianity the way? Now, I am not abandoning my faith, for in James, I think, it said that the testing of our faith develops perseverance…But what if?
Interestingly enough, this guy is gay…Would have mattered is he were straight though?

Hey man!

Just gotta say, I'm amazed. Challenging and inspiring. I wish I could've read that article in Relevant, but unfortunately, it will probably be another month before I get it. Keep up the good work my friend. Keep listening and don't be afraid to speak the truth. Love ya man.
