I actually agree with you, Brant! Jesus said, " I wish you were hot or cold but because you are lukewarm I want to vomit you out of my mouth." Rev. 3:16

Jane, please read the book I referenced from Mitch Albom. It clearly shows how people should be considerate of all religions or even non-religions. Very inspiring.

Jane, you clearly are misinterpreting me or the Bible. I do not believe. That is not lukewarm. That is cold. Period. If you believe, that would be hot. The only people who could be described as lukewarm are those who aren't sure whether they believe or not.

I wasn't saying YOU were lukewarm, you are quite obviously cold.

Thank you Cy, for providing that link....A strange form of time travel...And, yes, I read it all....pity me...
It seems that PlainJane took offense to the open support of atheism...
Perhaps she (or he ) felt overwhelmed and out-numbered and struck out naturally in the defense of her faith

See, it's like family...I can say anything I want about my sister - but if Joe says the same thing, he and I will be rolling in the gravel

choosing not to choose, is still a choice...and believing in nothing is still a belief...it's one of those Zeno paradoxes...and if you maintain that Religion is an organized system of thought, demanding adherence to a particular credo, one that offers no proof, then it seems to me, that atheism itself, is a religion
