But honestly Church for me these days is the outdoors. Me too.

I hear you. When I do go to Church I attend a straight up Bible Church. No denomination.
But honestly Church for me these days is the outdoors. Christianity is in my heart and personal beliefs that do fall within the Testaments. word

Tebow thread? I guess I am behind on my reading. No big deal. Somebody just posted something about him playing baseball and it was immediately inundated with religious smack.

I don't hate Christians, but believe shyster preachers that take advantage of old folk and their money need to be drawn slowly and quartered even slower!

LT. i would say 90 percent of those that claim to be Christians use his name in vain.
being a Christian means living a life with Christ in you. Few do that. I would say that 110% of Christians sin....

Tebo wears his religion on his sleeve, and on his pocketbook, so it's fair game. Peyton Manning's a devout Presbyterian, but unlike Tebo, he doesn't make a big deal about it. Try posting something about Manning, and I'd be surprised if anyone commented on his religion.

Dont get me started on Presbyterians.
I dont understand why its fair game.
Tim has never come to my house to tell me the Word.
Only the JW's do that, and they only come by when they know I am not home.
Has Tim done something to warrant such comments?
I am MAGA.

But honestly Church for me these days is the outdoors. Christianity is in my heart and personal beliefs that do fall within the Testaments. word We tend to find life closer to God while out in the woods, especially up north. Clear thinking. No fakery going on, nothing to distract you. Many years ago right after I'd shot my first bou, way up on top in AK, my buddy says, staring out in space, feels like you can touch God from here doesn't it. Or something to that effect. It caused me pause and a few tears, but he was correct. Much more so than in any church. We keep thinking, we should get back to a church, but almost all of them are so fake... There was some quote about space travel, IIRC, about reaching out and touching the hand of God. I can sure get that from being out in space. As close as we can get is nature. I'll take that every time. I have a quote on the wall at work, I think its still there, to the effect I'd rather be out in nature thinking(talking to) of God, than in church, thinking of being out in nature. I sure miss our old pastor Bill... he was a nature guy from the get go.... I enjoyed church very much so with him.

If you don't want your religion to be criticized in public, don't bring it up in public.

If you don't want your religion to be criticized in public, don't bring it up in public. That's a good answer, but what compels somebody to criticize something that doesn't effect them?

being a Christian means living a life with Christ in you. Few do that. I disagree. The word of the Lord is like a two edged sword. It splits crap asunder. Swords cause fear. What one fears, one hates. Me, i hate PC, libs, muzzies, commies, Clintons and rattlers and in that order. That means you, north worthless asswhole (nwa).

You made an assumption not in evidence. If a person makes less than optimum decisions based on untrue beliefs, it can affect more than just themselves. If in public someone is attempting to persuade them to base their future actions on untrue beliefs, anyone listening has a right to join the debate. If you want to keep you debate private, than keep it private.

Born again Christians are Christians first even before they are anything else.

I get it. If you don't know something it can't be so. That's really small thinking. None of us know as much as all of us.
