Thank you for your compliment. If everybody would just knock it off with these "crusades", "holy wars", forced conversions, and whatever, and instead focused time (and money) on real-world problems and such, it would be really great.
It bothers me when people call themselves Christians and try to scare people, force them into converting, and fill people with nonsense in order to get money and more members.
Christians are followers of Christ (hence the
Christ in Christian), so therefore we should follow his example, right? He says that we should welcome people with open arms (regardless of race, beliefs, nationality, etc) with kindness and generosity...with no force or intimidation involved...
There I go rambling again..
