I believe, that there's so much to do... so much to think about... in the church I go to, they only teach you as if you were sitting in a classroom. I want one where I can truly sit and meditate upon God. The thoughts I question, the ideas that fly in my mind...you know: MORE than what we were always taught through all the centuries of God...

MORE than just discrimination and tolerance of other religions and churches...

BEYOND the selfish ideas of New Age and the amusement of mixed religions!

*sigh* I'll just shut up. I'll probably get stoned to death again by a bunch of people.

You'd like to know more then all that repetitive stuff they teach you at most christian churchs eh? Perhaps you should look into learning a little about Mormons and how we came about. A little theology never hurt anyone, and any questions you have we probably have the answers to.

Your opinion and words are JUST as good as any others.

I for one respect what you said with A LOT of respect.

What you said was awsome. And I back it up.

I'm not saying Churches are bad....But like you said....If you feel closer to God by spending alone time with him and by everything you do....Then thats awsome ... and by all means Go right on your way.:2thumbs:

Jesus said "Where Two or Three are gather in My Name, There I am In the Midst Of Them"... thats the reason for going to church: not only on sundays but anywhere any time...

Nah, I dont think so. It just means that Jesus is here in the midst of us......

Its not a cult its just somewhere to go if you choose and yes I am methodist so I go sometimes.

Maybe it is, if we gather right here and talk about Jesus, even though we're worlds apart. How wonderful www is!
