I think that I might have given some people here some wrong impressions in the past. So, I'd just like to clear a few things up.
1. I am a Christian.
2. This means that I believe in one God, who expresses Himself as a Trinity of people - God the Father, God the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
3. This also means that I believe all other gods/godesses/deities-of-any-description are fakes, invented by humans or by Satan to trap people and keep them away from God.
4. In addition, I believe that everyone who isn't a Christian is going to Hell.
5. Understandably, I would really rather all you people didn't go to Hell. Hence, I'm praying for you. And I'm going to keep praying for you. Even if you ask me not to.

So, there we go.

I do get sick of it when people condemn Christianity because of the abuses conducted in its name - especially as the abuses so blatently contradict the central tenets of the faith itself!

Surely if you're going to pick a religion to twist to your own ends, you'd choose the one that seemed most right, because then you'd be more convincing?

My mind is also logical and scientific. But I can see how it'd be hard to believe if you hadn't had the experiences that kinda move the proof up a notch for me. It'd be kinda illogical and stupid for me *not* to believe in a God, given the number of 'coincidences' I'd have to believe in instead. But although I haven't independantly investigated this, I'm told that the historical evidence for the Bible being pretty accurate is good - better than some of the other history we take for granted.
