    Some like myself haven't adopted any belief system. I believe in God because of my personal feelings and intuition - no proof per se. I'm happy with that for now ... in the future, who knows? I don't worry about it anymore.

    Yeah, I'd say the same...

    .... I believe in God now that I have the freedom to do so. I appreciate Jesus now that I have the freedom to do so.

    If I decide not to believe, I have the freedom to do so.

    I have the freedom to believe whatever I want ... that's my belief system.

    I think all organized religion sucks.

    I believe I'll try to follow the example of Christ, I will try to love God in the way I treat others not in singing songs or reading magazines or going to the meetings. I shall try to implement the golden rule in my life now and if that's not enough for some people..well it's thier problem. As for an after life...I dont understand what all the fuss is about, if there is a loving God, an eternal Father, He'll take care of me When I was a child I didn't understand mortgage payments and interest rates, I didn't need to. Loving parents cared for me. Be at peace (something I never really had as a JW) Do what is right and good, and what goes around comes around.

    I see that Hibiscusfire has returned. I smell a troll. Hibiscus, until you respond to my questions, I will not be contributing to any other of your threads. My questions, repeated below for your convenience: Hibiscus, consider this, I have been a Christian for twenty-plus years. I have never denounced my faith. I am embarrassed that you think your technique of internet witnessing represents the love of Christ. No, I am not lost. Why did you assume so? Was it because I disagree with your approach?

    If the world had stuck to the 10 commandments don't you think we would be better off?

    How about the two? Love God and love your neighbour. I think many of us are still working on these two, and it turns out to be a lifetime project. Just look at all the misunderstanings you have generated here by not listening carefully?

    Just like we'd have more virgins on the earth now
    Now that is just off the wall. Are you praying for the return of the Gnostics and the Essenes?

    Maybe you're smelling yourself.

    Care to respond to my other questions? Or do you only react to insults?
