Look man... No need for the religious aspect. No hate, I respect you for your beliefs. I have my own. With that being said, you can't compare a videogame to real life. I don't t-bag. I may wave at the end of the match. That's about it. There is a diffference in being humble, compared to being a jackass. I spent 10 years in the military, and saw numerous friends pass. Do I believe in God? No, I don't. Do I believe in a higher power? Yes. But, if you actually read the bible... God gave us our own will. This is not a knock on you. Everyone has their own beliefs. I was raised in a Cherokee and Norwegian household. They are both polytheistic cultures. But, they also believe in a higher power. To be honest, some of the worst people I have ever met are bible thumpers, but I know more about the bible than they do. People can claim to be Christian all day, but have no clue what the bible says. My point is... There is no reason for the religious preference. My name literally means Truly exalted by the lord. Sometimes, I believe it. We make our own choices. I have no issues with peoples' beliefs. Muslims? They're not all bad. Point is... Open up your world. Do what you feel is right. I've given money to strangers, and I'm not religious. Btw, this wasn't a knock on you. Just broaden your horizons. The most "religious" people can be oppresive, and asshats. I'm not saying you are. Every religion has fanatics. I respect you for your beliefs.

  • I done what I know is right. And I had to say about how Jesus affects my actions in my life because it was relevant to me personally in my experience. Before I gave my life to Jesus I lived mostly for myself. Honored mostly only myself. When I accepted the Truth of Jesus I became capable of honoring others. Even strangers. That's why I brought it up. My post was more about honor than Jesus. I wasn't trying to convert anyone. lol. But I find it interesting that you said you don't believe in God. But you mentioned believing in what God says about free will. But yeah. Not knocking on you either. Sorry to hear that some so called "Believers" haven't been the best of examples for you. Btw... here is a response I had earlier to someone elses comment... This is very true. You can tell the difference of Real Believers from fake ones. If someone claimed to be a "Christian" and then did you wrong. Chances are that individual isn't really a believer. BUT also one problem is sometimes people that don't believe as us think that we become perfect when we Believe. They don't realize that it's kind of like being reborn and we have to re-learn living life all over again, in Jesus' ways. And this sometimes means even Real Believers make mistakes along the way as they are learning to live life different from the ways we were already used too. Kind of like going through a new childhood and learning a different standard of life.
