I'm still wondering how the Christians 'force' their beliefs on you
folks.

I never said they did, at least not since I was a child and that didn't
take very well. It never made sense. I have a vivid memory as a young
child of a Sunday school teacher describing Noah's Arc and the flood
and
how in heaven the lion will lie with the lamb, etc. I remember looking
around at the other kids and thinking wow, they believe these
stories, I
better just be quiet.

They do routinely come to my front door ignoring the no soliciting sign
and try to convince me that I need to dedicate my life to Jesus to
avoid
an eternity of suffering, join their church, and donate to their cause.
Perhaps they mean well but I think they're full of **** and
annoying.
I've never had a Muslim, Jew, or atheist solicit like that.

Maybe if I stop being polite to them they'd leave me alone.

My sister's daughter went on a weekend trip with a Baptist church group.
When they got her away from home, where she was a vulnerable 10 year
old, they tried to brainwash her into being "born again". She's smart
and takes such things seriously, she wouldn't do it, saying that she had
to talk to her mom and dad about it. That scared her and she's not
stepped foot in a church since.

That's truly a shame. One must come to the Lord on their own accord,
if they are going to. I don't believe in 'altar dragging'

That's not even biblical.


It's not a real story either.... Just sayin' Tim.

And even if it is somewhat based on fact.. like even if his neice did go
to a church event nobody tried "brainwashing" (in one day, snerk), but
it's obvious somebody already was conditioned to hate and be intolerant
before her tenth birthday... I could believe that coming from the Noble
Klan...
