TPW, In ADDITION to wishing you would become a Believer in Jesus (which I gladly ADMIT right off), I just really NEVER dreamed there were people who believed like you seem to since the time of Jesus. I'm trying to figure out if you really believe that these "gods" are real or ever were. OR are they just exercises in modeling behavior based upon the attributes that those mythical creatures supposedly had? I have seen a Bill Gothard ministries book for children which takes one animal at a time and explains the attributes that we can learn from each animal (like industry in the ant, etc.) I thought that was quite neat--learn about nature while learning good character qualities. Is this what your gods are about, or do you believe they exist today? And at what age did you discover and adopt these beliefs? Are there many like you? I tried to look up the website you had given, but our spam blocker wouldn't let me, as it blocks "Occult/New Age" websites. Izzy
BTW, No one becomes a Believer "kicking and screaming", so you never have to fear that! :-) Do your gods drag people into believing in them? I think not. Whether we like it or not, we believe our Father created all humans with a free will that He won't violate. Those who try to force people into believing anything are tragically misguided. I never worry about that too much, because I think if someone is REALLY hungry for Truth, they will find Christ. If not, there isn't a thing I could say or do to make them believe anyway. You sound like you have your mind made up to me. (But one can always hope against hope, anyway--right? ) And I will NOT insult Jesus by peddling him like a vacuum sweeper--PLEASE take Jesus, PLEASE!!!

Izzy: I am Serious! Can you please tell me? Do you think I have a clue how someone like you believes? :-) TPW: Why does it matter so much to you? A heathen here, a heathen there, we are all the same to you anyways!! Just not saved and bound for hell. So why does it matter to you what we believe? Aren't we just to be conquered and brought into the kingdom, kicking and screaming if we must? Or do you seek answers truthfully? So answer this question, why do you seek to know what makes me tick?
