[QUOTE="DavidMcmillan, post: 2698746, member: 11749"] You know, I have to wonder about some of you. You are turned off because of some phony Christians you have met, or know of. I can certainly agree that there are hypocrites, liars, cheats, etc. in the Christian community, and they turn me off also. However, in my journey through the shooting community, I have certainly fun into a mix of liars, hypocrites, jerks, and cheats, but that didn't stop me from enjoying the fellowship of other shooters, and the opportunity to learn so much more than I could have ever learned on my own. Likewise, there are doctors, lawyers, teachers, law enforcement officers, and other professionals that are not as pure as I would like them to be, but I'm sure glad we have them available when we need them. That said, of all the people I deal with, my Christian friends are the ones who have been the best friends in my life. They have never cheated me, lied to me, or tried to take advantage of me. They are the ones that have visited me in the hospital, stood beside me at the death of loved ones, and are the ones with which I cam share my most secret thoughts. My faith in God, and in Jesus Christ as my Savior, is the single guiding principle in my life. I have faith in God, for one reason, because I don't have enough faith to believe that the complexity and repeatability of human life and nature just happens by accident. I have met many of you, and a great many of you have seemed like people I would enjoy being around on a regular basis. Because I care for my family and friends, My hope that would be that you would find the quality of life and assurance of eternity that I have found. But, I would never impose that belief on anyone.
