In Rebuttal,
In your own words answer me this and you'll find my answer;
Which is better, the man who lies to himself and others when he pretends to have faith yet he can find none in his heart? Or the man who is honest in his lack of faith, can address it without trying to fool anyone least of all himself?
I have been saved by Christ, I gave myself up and over to him and accepted him as my savior. I repented my sins before God and allowed Christ to lead my path for years. I'd trade anything for that comfort, to give up control and let someone else take the lead again. But it doesn't work anymore. True faith, a real relationship with Christ isn't something you can talk yourself into, there isn't a lesson plan for it. You either have the capability to give yourself up or you don't. I can't or won't do it again, having been there and come out on the other side I know the futility in it. Call me a vile fool it doesn't matter to me. I'd say that you're a fool for believing, but whatever get's you through the night brother.
...that's a rather bold statement for someone who denies the very existence of God .
