| I surfed across your web site and agreed whole heartedly. Isn't it great to be set free? After 7 years in a very 'legalist' church I was disfellowshipped for socializing with members who had left voluntarily. After that I took a 20+ year spiritual nap, that is, until my Creator decided the time was right to wake me up. What an awakening!!! Humphrey | I've been a Christian for most all of my 52 years, and for a good chunk of it I've been disillusioned. There has been a lot of mis-information transmitted and I'm one of the walking wounded - one the church forgot
to shoot. Dan |
| You've achieved at painting a very cynical picture of all that's wrong with the western Church and while I can agree with most of it, I feel you have failed in communicating an alternative model... Sean | Hello Bryan, I read your article on UR and it was quite an encouragement to me. I have been studying this concept for over two years and it definitely sits well in my soul. Bob |
| I find your articles honest and thought-provoking. I have no debate with you, just wanted to send you an e-mail, and thank you for giving me some things to think about. Kyle | an assembly is important for those who fear they'd stray away from the faith. That is quite a majority of the church goers. Abraham |
My impression of your web sight after trying to figure out "what you are all about" is that you are a cowardly (I didn't see any of your names - how convenient!), heretical, arrogant, misguided (any other gospel is anathama), and destructive. It is a lot easier to be critical - many weak-willed, intellectually lazy, and emotionally disturbed people have opted for that cop-out. Too bad for you that you have become the next dupes to believe the "deceiver" of the brethren. May God have mercy on your hardened, arrogant hearts.
Ken | Greetings, I just wanted to say I like your site, and I have one question. By using the term "modern church settings", does this mean to include those which are not necessarily within church walls? For example, a regular gathering of people at say a club or warehouse, if an individiual considers this as a spiritual thing and there is a definite atmosphere of celebration and spiritual awakening; OR, say if an old church was turned into a rave venue?
Though there is no "actual" existence of traditional Christian teaching or holy rituals, these gatherings do seem to act as a spiritual - soul-searching activity. Kathryn |
obviously, you are not an athiest
obviously, you still believe in god, most likely in the manner the catholic church, against which you have so obviously reacted, presents that idea obviously you do not have a thorough understanding of the idea of athiesm
YOU HAVE MISSED THE DAMN POINT | I stumbled across the site today, looking for some lyrics to Great American Novel. It is depressing to read, mostly because of the reflections of a person who so dearly longs to live in a community of believers and be part of a church (not the building, the body) that lives out what is taught in the Bible.
