Readers will reach their own conclusions as to who is trolling who.
Here its is as posted [b]on this page in a message addressed directly to you, to which you responded, presumably without having read it:You pretending not to recall being told things is boring. And I have already told you three times on this thread, a mere matter of minutes ago ...[text shortened]... essed directly to you.
Is this the fifth or sixth time I have answered your question?[/b]
That is the WEAKEST excuse that I have ever heard. There is always something that leads to a person to lose faith. Your reason is weak, and lame.
You are hiding something.
Originally posted by chaney3On then contrary, I hardly think there could be a stronger reason to stop seeing oneself as a Christian and losing one faith in what Christians claim about Jesus than realizing that the Bible is not credible. Without the Bible, there can be no Christian faith. It's as strong a reason as there is, I reckon. If you can think of some examples of stronger reasons, feel free to say.

Originally posted by divegeester to chaney3I was under the impression that chaney3 no longer believed that the Bible was credible and that was why he (obviously) isn't a Christian anymore (regardless of what Suzianne might say). I wonder what he thinks of his own reason for thinking the Bible is "BS" and "man made"?
What would you say is the strongest excuse you have heard for losing ones faith?
Originally posted by FMFFor the umpteenth time, Suzianne is not required to defend my faith. Where do you come up with this??? You do seem irrational with your words.

I have had my own issues with the Bible and with my faith. Given the fact that you went from Christian to atheist........are you really in a position to challenge me on God issues?
No, you are not.
-Removed-FMF has not described fully why he lost his faith. He merely stated that he 'lost' his belief. This is nonsense. One just doesn't lose their entire faith. Something happened, and he is not sharing.
Granted, he is not obligated to share......but, something happened.
Stop being his boyfriend dive........it is not at all compelling. Really.
Originally posted by chaney3Yes one does not lose ones faith overnight, I suspect that unless one exercises ones faith one loses it. For many people I suspect its almost imperceptible, they simply drift until one day they come to the realization that they no longer profess belief in the things they did formerly. The Bible itself mentions many reasons why a person may lose their faith.
