zip50 (OP) User ID: 25869708 United States 09/07/2013 08:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am in my fifties now, female and a former Christian. Quoting: zip50 I stopped being a Christian and became a more spiritual person about 8 years ago. I had, what I believe, was a spiritual awakening. That is when I started learning more about aliens, The NWO, 911 etc etc..all the things that brought me to GLP in the first place. It was like I was guided to find more truths after my spiritual awakening. I am not an atheist. I believe in a creator. But in no way am I a Christian. I don't believe in hell. I don't believe that a loving God would send me to hell for being human. I hate the blackmailing and threats from some Christians. I would be interested to hear why some of you are no longer Christians and if one event led you to where you are today or if you just changed over time. Please share your experiences. I was never a Christian, technically, but I did join the Jehovah's Witnesses sect, and then left a few years after I joined because I realized that the whole thing is a scam. I started doing my own research into Christianity because I was curious how the religion's members could actually believe that the Most High impregnated a human female, when one can clearly read for themselves that the Most High even forbade the angels from mixing with humans genetically (Levitical law about not mixing unlike seed with unlike seed), and that He punished angels who did in fact impregnate human females. That and other things caused me to investigate what I had been told. As for the JW religion, what made me investigate them was how they dealt with the child molestation charges they were facing at the time. The fact that they didn't want the victims to go to the authorities (and how they dealt with their members who did) made me see that the religion was not something the Most High had any dealings with because the org was protecting known child sex offenders. After researching everything for about a year, I knew that I HAD to leave the Jehovah's Witness religion, and neither Christianity or any other religion has been able to serve as a suitable replacement. Religion is a lie, plain and simple. A sister of a good friend of mine is a Jehovah's witness. She will have very little to do with her sister now. They were very close when they were kids. Big time brainwashing. It makes me sick. I am glad you found your way out of it. And yes, religion is a lie. |

I find that aliens, NWO, 911 etc. are all indicative of end time prophecy being fulfilled. What about these things have made you lose you faith? I can understand not wanting to believe in hell. But I do believe in a loving God and that his judgement and punishment will be fair. |

What part of your bitch with an organized religion does God, Jesus Christ or the Holy Spirit have anything to do with? Did they personally make an appeal for the religion? Of course not...that is SPIRITUAL WARFARE in action.....you get to know God, Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit by a desire a belief and by reading the scriptures with the brain God gave you. The scriptures and commentaries are free....ask God, Jesus Christ to be your Spiritual Guide and Teachers and get Baptized for the Holy Spirit to reside in you. It is a public invitation via Baptism.....I recommend anyone do it for the experience. It should be in a pond, lake or river for the full effect. A pool is OK.

beebee User ID: 46071607 Canada 09/07/2013 09:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | All of you Christians, with what I am sure are only good intentions, are only confirming that I made the right decision. I have been there, done that. I have no intentions of going back to that. I moved on from it and have never regretted it. Quoting: zip50 Bravo to you kiddo!!! I am 67 and had my first suspicions when I was 17 and dared to challenge this 'god' character by asking who the hell he thought he was by demanding I worship him, by telling me I'm nothing but a loathsome sinner. But, as the 3 Abrahamic religions are designed to do, I was immediately filled with shame, fear and guilt and didn't question again for another 30 years!!! What a waste of time. It's now been about 20 years since I finally removed the yoke of religious mind control and will never look back. There's one "preacher" I love listening to. His name is Bill Donahue. He was once a "fire and brimstone" preacher but finally realized the bible was never meant to be taken literally. He is one man who seems to be able to "read" the hidden messages within all the symbolism and allegories. He's funny to boot. [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] beebee |
