it's hard to try and empathize with people who have been mislead (weird to think that other people see us that way too lol) but i guess we just have to try and turn that "this is ridiculous feeling" into "this makes their soul so much more important"
but agreed some of its pretty crazy. Especially like hindu mythology too, when my friends are doing environmental science one minute and going to sunday school class and learning about how thunder/lightning comes from gods' wars the next. I'm not sure how their belief in that works...

Yeah, some of the mythology and religions of the world are pretty crazy. Sometimes it's hard for me to grasp how people can believe stuff like that. But then sometimes I take a look at what we Christians say and it can sound pretty unbelievable at times too.

And lol Caro XP I used to think the exact same thing! Like, think about how strange some false religion's beliefs were, and then I'd immediately think of my own Christian ones and be like 'hm...well that's pretty weird too. Guess I can't blame them for their beliefs...I mean, I'm sure if I'd grown up in their religion I'd think/believe the exact same thing!'.
But really, I guess my thinking has really changed some there.
Like, I know I'd feel totally completely empty and have that hole in my heart even if I'd been if I'd grown up in some other religion...I know God would be knocking on my heart, and...I don't know, I guess the truth would just become apparent eventually!
Thankfully that hypothetical situation never happened :) I'm really blessed to have grown up in a Christian family/been able to be exposed to the gospel and the Bible and the truth from a very young age.
Hm...might have gotten off track there a little I guess....um... *tries to turn it around*
Oh yeah! I actually don't think that way anymore about certain things in Christianity being weird really. I mean, except for some stuff in Revelation or something that has be pressing a hand to my head and going 'uuuungh...so...weird and hard to get...' :P

Yeah, I know what you mean. Sometimes I wish that I hadn't been brought up in a christian family just so I could experience coming to a belief in Christ. But honestly I'm really thankful I did grow up with christian parents.

Ok thanks :)

I second Ashley, it would be cool to put a face to the comments so to speak. ;)

I used to feel the exact same way Elizabeth and Caro!
Buuuut honestly, I feel like I'm living out my testimony right now. Idk, I don't think a testimony ends immediately after you get saved. It also has to do with the hard times God gets you through (like, last summer was soooo hard...and things are still hard, but in a completely different way).
Yes, I agree. Even though I made the decision to trust Jesus as my personal savior at a young age. I've actually found that some of my biggest decisions about sticking with it and my biggest growth has been this year and 2014.

@HoldMyHeart,
There's this show called Gilligan's Island, and it's old but good :) My sisters like it a lot. I mean, it's kinda boring to me but I think that's just cause I'm getting older or whatever :P

That's true. A lot is about approach I suppose but nowadays people stretch the word judges it of context when what we're actually doing is discerning
hello welcome!

Yeah, I thought almost all my boards where pretty good. So I didn't want to start another account. I'm glad you like it! Yeah, my brother did the design, he is super good.
Haha, that's pretty funny.

hello! Guys we should play a random question game. like who can come up with the most up in the air weird questions to ask each other to get to know other people

Purple!
Would you rather have the ability to walk on ceilings (like, upside down type of thing), or on the sides of walls? #weirdquestion
sides of walls..? i feel like walking on ceilings would make all the blood rush to my head haha
then again this is kinda just like our would you rather/TPBM games lol

I feel you, though I don't have people asking me those questions, 0_0 gosh that's kind of rude. But I generally have a problem with people my age just not being into anything that is long lasting or interesting. It's super annoying for making friends.

Yeah exactly.

No they're COMPLETELY different.

I've really become frustrated with making friends because of this fact.
