Years after my R.E. teacher said, “I will never fall lower than into God’s hands,” I finally came up with the retort, “Let’s go on the roof and check.”

    There are certainly some cushy churches and Christian orgs in my experience, but not exclusively.

    And while that guy sounds great, I’m still gonna be skeptical of anyone that spends anytime preaching rather than just living by example as Jesus commanded(‘and I will know you by your fruits’ something to that effect), which he otherwise sounds like he does. Glad you got something positive out of it. And I’m glad he’s helping people

    But the fact that those are two extreme anecdotal examples kind of proves my point. It’s exceedingly rare to find anyone in the religion that actually does ‘walk the walk’. The vast majority of Christians have no interest or understanding of doing what was commanded of them. And because their belief alone confers forgiveness they are free to continue living however they wish. It’s all very convenient
