[fuck the church]
Let me preface this with the fact that I believe 100% percent in god, that jesus was a real person, and that the basis of christanity is sound and reflects the good moral principles of all other religions in the world.
CHURCH IN THIS MODERN AGE IS BULLSHIT! Its barely about god, or living by the word of god, or anything that christ taught. Preachers, ministers, reverends, etc. go to seminary school feining to be learning about god, when really, they are learning how to sweet talk people. If you've been to a church service recently, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. If you haven't, you don't even need to leave your computer, chruches around the world are streaming there services so you can have the grace of god anywhere you have a internet connection. The rhetoric and repetative wordage is so good at making people feel like they embrace god, feel like they have a relationship with god, feel like they know who god is, and feel like they have it figured out what they believe and don't believe. The majority of a church service is spent making the members of the congregation feel good, not about god. Its almost perversive, intentionally leading people astray like that. Churches these days have congregations of a thousand or more. I ask you this, how the fuck can a minister, preacher, reverent, pastor, what ever help you build your relationship with god if you're only a dot in the sea of people sitting in front of you. He doesn't even know you name, what your life is like, anything. How does that help at all? Did you see christ talking to thousands of people? No, he talked to the individual, addressing the universal needs/problems of humanity on a personal basis. The church has become, or has remained, a socio-economic tool, not a place of worship. Its sad, pathetic, and makes me wanna puke.
If you wanna find god, find him for yourself, don't hop in the minivan, drive to one of these new uber-churches, and go "yah, what the guy with the band-collar said".
That, and secondly, if you say you are a christian- be a fucking christian for gods sake. Don't use the lords name in vein, follow the 10 command mants, live a virtous life dedicated to peace and helping others. The biggest joke of the history of christianity is the fact that George W. Bush is a born again christian. Why is he born-again? Because he claims god came to him in a dream and told him it was his god-given duty to become president of the United States of America. How far from the wrods of christ can you get, seriously?
Solution #1- Christ makes like, the one-and-a-half coming of christ, and comes and wakes people up a little.
Solution #2- Christian Genocide anybody?
