that's fine, dude, no problem
That Evangelical church still sounds more laid-back than most American churches. The reason I’m more “spiritual, but not religious” is because all too often when I go to church, I find myself wondering, “do they worship God, or do they idolize specific political ideologies and US politicians?” A lot of the recent times I went to church it was just 2-hour long rants about “culture war” issues like people who use “they” pronouns or Disneyland.
Good for you for thinking critically about the messages being preached to you, though. I guess church is sort of like school where you can’t expect to be spoon-fed knowledge. Eventually you have to think for yourself and turn everything into a potential learning experience, like how you didn’t seem to agree with how the Church talked about tithing but still tried to figure out how it applies in your life.
It’s funny how actually reading the Bible is a good fount of knowledge, but at the same time it makes you more skeptical of churches that would rather you didn’t think too hard about what God REALLY means.
It should be noted that a lot of atheists do thoroughly read the Bible, but the only difference is that they reach the personal conclusion that there is no God. And of course you probably know there are far too many Christians who don’t actually read the Bible and allow themselves to be manipulated by scammers because they don’t want to think when they go to church. Even with religion, you have to use the brain God gave you.
yo hello dude, thanks for your comment, always making excellent comments. I like to think about everything, i like to learn, to observe... the bible is the best source of knowledge, for years i have been searching knowledge on things like estoicism, the art of war, neuroscience. Well, many people say they did read the bible, they know about, but i only trust them if they show that knowledge, since the bible is a book with about 1400 pages, few people have the will to read all that, specially atheists who doesn't believe it. There is the karl marx book, i never read it and i don't intend to.
If more of the people who believe in God did read the bible they would notice the lies, the heresies, the hypocrisy, that there are many of the church and on people who says they're christians (like politicians)
i have sinned 949494 times
im going to hell now :’(
Finasty

I'm not atheist, i'm very christian, i just don't have a religion like evangelical, catholic, jew, adventist, nothing like that, all of them have things i don't agree with, the catholic is the one i disagree the most. I did read all the bible and follow the max i can from it
