Hi All,

I discovered this post on a christian website re the 'true' awareness debate.

basically the situation is of extremest christians vs the new age mages... After the usual slang match, this below entry was posted... i found it interesting.. but would like to know your thoughts:

Even if it is the christian way to believe in the devil and its negative influenence this doesn't give you the right to make others doubt themselves or their life experiences and self worth with your judgement and damnation.

Its time bible bashers leave the judgement of humanity to god. You were not put on this earth to do his bidding but simply to live by it. Not everyone accepts that they won't receive a second chance. regardless of what will come in the afterlife you should as 'enlightened spiritualists' should accept that you too don't actually know the true answer as you are mearly human yourself.

Dispite all of this, it is true to say that these people stumbled upon your site, chose to read your material, there is nothing wrong with stating your beliefs if there are others who wish to seek solace in those with similar views. But this forum has not remained an objective and informative resource, but mearly a slang match between the 'goodies and the badies'. The opinions posted on this site for both sides are nothing but drivel from two prideful sides of the debate.

Taking part in such an act is reducing the creditibility of your religion's followers and as such, the religion itself. Both parties here have done nothing but try to defend their beliefs and to what end?

Religions don't need defending, they are what they are. Leave your defensiveness for when you really need it. When your life is actually in physical jeapordy.
