  i have heard it many times and i just don't know what to do with it.

  i'm not fond of any religious fanatic.

  islamic fundies can be downright crazy.

  mormonism seems silly to me.

  Would you go to church?

  by Coded Logic in

  2. beliefs

  i have an unspoken rule that if someone ever invites me to a church - that i haven't been to before - i will go.

  even though i'm an atheist i'm still interested in the experiance.

  just like i'm not into basketball but i would like to go to a game sometime to feel the energy of the crowd.. growing up as a jw i've never set foot in another church.

  I have gone to a few religious weddings, but other than that I have never gone to a church service. I have been causally invited, but declining the invitation is usually considered a relief to all parties considered.

  I really have no interest in the concept of religion. Spending a morning at a church is a complete waste of time - at least for me.

  I have now read most of the posts and your comments. You have every right to be fu*&king angry. If you are not angry - I am agry for you.

  Remember that you have the rest of your life. The sooner you get over this hump the better. These elders mean nothing - they deserve no explaination. Just figure out what you want to do with the rest of your life - I can assure you your life can be wonderful.
