Most of my friends in Austin agree with her. I&#39;m sick of them myself.<br /><br />And I&#39;ve been a Christian all my life. My husband just resigned from being on staff at a church, we&#39;re so sick of it all.<br /><br />We&#39;re going to hit the streets and find some real people to spend Sundays with.Birthblessedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14153536936015967711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11570547.post-49062838589074684102009-10-27T18:11:29.243-05:002009-10-27T18:11:29.243-05:00It is exactly the attitudes she describes - perfectly - that are why it took me so, so, so, so long to become a Christian. And it&#39;s exactly why I don&#39;t have many Christian friends, still.<br /><br />Why are the people who are loving and kind the people who reject Christianity? What does that say about those who believe in Christ?rachelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04510731941899864099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11570547.post-88702139610327882782009-10-26T13:02:07.812-05:002009-10-26T13:02:07.812-05:00Summer hit it on the head!<br />Amen<br /><br /><br />tee hee...my word verification is &quot;trust&quot; <br />so great!Babshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12394899918879687278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11570547.post-32637057649618589972009-10-26T09:10:58.478-05:002009-10-26T09:10:58.478-05:00If you want to avoid hypocrites, you&#39;re going to have to avoid more than just church. You&#39;ll also have to avoid Wal-Mart, the movie theater, the gas station, and restaurants. We&#39;re everywhere. &quot;Christian&quot; does not mean perfect - not even close. We&#39;re all human and we&#39;re all sinners. Chritians, however, choose to join in the struggle to follow God&#39;s commands and be more like Him.
