Why is it that people who claim to be "christian" usually seem to be closed-minded and judgemental (the very opposite of Christ)? I am not trying to insult anyone in particular, I am just saddened because I feel like I am losing my faith... I don't proclaim to know all about God, or have any answers, but why can't people accept the fact that we will NEVER have the answers? I have faith in a higher power/intelligent designer (God) and believe that Jesus, if he in fact existed, was surely one of the most spiritually advanced humans to ever walk the earth. I WANT to believe... but lately it is getting harder and harder--the so called "bible churches" and "non-denominational" churches seem to be the worst at proclaiming their truth as THE truth, and judging other people as unworthy.
I was raised Catholic and after trying a bunch of different denominations, I have come back to the catholic church, as it is the one I feel the most comfortable in, and I have had a great experience with my priest. I was pregnant when he married me and my husband, and he was so kind to us both. Many of my baptist friends think the catholics are evil and pagan and blablabla. I am so tired of hearing it. Why can't we all just get along? I'm starting to think if jesus came back to earth, he wouldn't attend any church at all, he woul probably be more at home sitting in silence with a buddhist monk in nature.
Anyway... does anyone else have this problem? :rolleyes:
