Thanks. Knowing Jesus is rather hard to explain; it's like being in love, and trying to tell your friends what it's like. If they've never been in love, they'll mock you. If they've been in love, they'll understand. And if they've been in love, and lost, they'll become wretchedly ill and make bitter comments.

Yup, it's hard to explain, but I'll keep trying. I know what agnostics and atheists feel, for I used to be one... no one but God could have changed my mind, and yet He did.

Just a hunch, but you might see Him sometime soon as well. I have a feeling you've got a history you aren't sharing, something that hurts like hell and isn't easy to explain, either...

I have a lot of history I don't share here, but none of it has to do with my atheism. I've made no secret of how I came to atheism in other threads. It has nothing to do with pain at all, but rather with study and thought.

You're welcome to your beliefs, and I will not attempt to discourage you in them. However, I will point out that Jesus has not returned in the allotted time set out in the Bible. If you need a reference for that, I will be happy to provide it.

You believe in your religion, and that's fine. Others have different beliefs. Christianity is the religion of less than 1/3 of the world's population. You believe your religion to be the correct one. Others feel differently. Myself, I reject them all as superstitious claptrap.

Ain't that the truth! And how little I deserved it, and how thankful I am.
