| 23. i am glad to hear this, i just don't get the same sampling |

my children go to a baptist school. i use to enjoy this school so, but about last Christmas there was a switch in their stance. separate and started separating themselves from everyone really hard and fast. if you didn't exactly fit their beliefs then the finger point of unchristian. didn't support bush, then unpatriotic, unAmerican not supporting the troops.
i am sorry for your religion right now. at the moment it has walked away from god and is now walking life in mans ego.
i hope you will be able to take back your religion, but right now it isn't looking good. i have gone from a person that embraced all religion, all churches in the love they gave to others, now i see a church and i am turned off. i don't embrace and feel a joy in religion anymore. i am disgusted.
told a fundie friend, with the definition of Christian the baptists have created, i don't want the title, i will walk away from the title and keep my own relationship with Christ, without the dirtiness we are now putting on the word Christian. crisis of religion, not a crisis in faith. faith will always be, man/religion cannot contaminate
