yeah, basically this one guy i had for sunday school, right? well almost every week he would tell us about how our salvation is important and that if we lose our salvation, we would be descending into hell. that sent chills down my spine. i mean, he can be pretty persuasive. that one doctrine is what drove a wedge between me and my parents. I am done with that. If any guy or woman dares to preach salvation to me and pretends to live a christian life, then I am just not buying their teachings. Why should I?
This is why it is so much easier to get along with other religious groups than protestants, especially protestants. they are very critical and very like oh i dont want to hang out with you.. even if you come from teh same religion. I rather accept everyone for who they are than exclude them. this is how i felt before i ever stepped into church. so, i do regret attending church because they told me that i had to be different from teh world and that i might lose friends. look at my other christian friends, they hang out with a bunch of people who are good influences to them and they're not christians. they're just as moral as these people who constantly claim that they have the exclusive right to heaven. sorry if that's offending some of you guys, but it's true. I have christian friends who hangs out with everybody. some type of bs the church wants to drill into my head.
