Thought ninjapenguin comment was not allowed. Not this but other threads calling Bible fiction and saying things about god- thought that those conversations were out of order........but obviously, I am seen as the one with the issue.
In addition, when someone attacks me for my sensitivity I thought that goes against the whole spirit of RYL.
I have made my peace with the whole rapture issue today- and I don't want to be a buzz kill- but at the same time, why can't people have a serious conversation.
I don't get why it/ today is fair game to dump on people who obviously are exploiting Christianity, but don't represent Christians, but there is like no place to talk about it seriously. Everybody is treating it as a joke, or finding solace in Bible quotations that they don't even necessarily believe. I know that the fact that I can't find solace is my own issue because of where I am in my life, but I definitely cannot make jokes about it to get by.
Like I said I don't want to disagree with anyone, as people on this thread seem to be having fun...........I guess I just am not letting go that easily. If you don't laugh then you'd cry right..........My beliefs are just important to me- and I guess I can read between the lines when there is actually nothing there. At the same time, I wish people were aware- or cared that this is a sensitive topic. So obviously like I said before: it is just me.
