I am moved by this-
maybe someone else will be inspired and fall back in love over again with their faith, like I just did.

Indeed. I do what ever I can for everyone...Faith, faithless or even satanic. God gives and shows a love the our natural limitations cannot perceive past. So why should we ignore that endless love to other's? Something as simple as being a ear to someone's voice can change their life......even save it.

many misguided people from this quote, like from many of the bible's quotes. Like the Jehova Witnesses, who understand that they must force you into religion. many people understand that they must beat you into religion. What about every priest in the church? do they believe this? sure ... but how misguided ?

of course the real meaning is that you should help other people by donating to the poor, giving good advices, getting involved, working along side others, and so on (like, if you see a stranger who's car battery went dead, you push his car so he can start it)

I helped my mother donate some unused clothes, and some time ago I donated puppets to orphans :rolleyes:

Misguided? Presumably so to you. Of course there are corrupted church's and people of the church. Is inevitable, even speaks of so in the Bible. But, just by simply doing the acts of love and kindness can really be a huge impact on the person and/or the surrounding crowd. The only true freedom man/women will ever have is choice. Choice is what and make who you are. It defines your actions and thoughts. Simply because people claim to be walkers of God but do not practice the law's or his grace. Does not automaticaly rule out the fact that God exist. Its very asinine to conceive such a thought. Now excuse ME I'm off to stuff my face full of cream cheese won-ton's. :drool: :drool: :drool:

Acts of love and kindness are essential to showing your faith. Sharing Christ with others is the ultimate sign of love.

Mmm
You got me craving that


But on topic~
I agree wih you fully.

Many people who do call themselves Christians but do not act like a Christian, is not truly a Christian
However,
People that may not be a Christian, but "act" in a way a Christian would, doing good for the pure Essenes of doing good
And treating others with respect, etc. is really a Christian

IMO, religion is a way, to channel your expressions and praise, and guide you in a right path
It isn't the have all ends all
