CDFree Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Like many here I have lurked a bit and floated back and forth. I won't lie I was interested in Chrisitan faith and for a few years I was "brainwashed" by a fundie Christian - then that person changed - I don't know why, but at that point I began to realise what a fairytale Christianity actually was. Today I seen in a post on Facebook "Unworthy but Loved" something just clicked into place at that point - I am NOT unworthy (or anyone else for that matter) - what sort of loving god would say something like that. I also used to frequent various different discussion forums - and they were all the same - usally I wasn't Christian enough for them - well that is all behind me now!

Spectrox Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Good for you! Sounds like a similar story to me. I still go on some pro-Christian sites and cause a bit of mischief. I agree that Unworthy is a horrendous description - particularly coming from an alleged God who is absurd and quite dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overcame Faith Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Hi, CDFree, and welcome to ExC. Indeed, you are NOT unworthy. The whole notion that we are born worthy of nothing more than an eternity in hell, is horrible. I'm glad you escaped the religion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deva Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The "unworthy" idea is what it all starts with. It is false. If you realize how false it is, then the whole thing falls down like a row of dominoes. I never did anything by just being born that would piss off an almighty God. Certainly no sane idea of justice would permit this. This is a screwed up mind who thought this up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
