Hello Pauline!  :-)

Awesome post! This is the first time I've read this.

I saw what you posted Neil and I agree with you 100%. Not all who call themselves Christians are truly Christians so we shouldn't all be judged by the actions of others.

It appears that Neil has had some bad experiences with some of these people so he thinks we are all the same. Hopefully he will be able to see from your post that not all Christians hate Atheists. I for one appreciate Neil's patriotism, I value that greatly in a person. I was born in Mexico but I love this country and it bothers me when I here an American who was born here speaking badly of his own country. They don't understand how good they have it here.

Thank you my dear sister in Christ for your wisdom, you are such blessing to me. I love you Sis!  ;-)

Hi again, Pauline!

Your forum has drawn me back in.  I am with John and in total agreement with him and with you in your post to Neil.

To quote you: the topic is FREEDOM AND WHO IS AN AMERICAN.... so freedom is ....heres what I think of freedom....I would like to think that real freedom comes from within..THINK FREE AND YOU WILL BE FREE..the past has a very weird way of holding us in bondage and robing us of happiness and fulfillment.

I always admire Neil's patriotism.  He's a friend of mine and he is well aware of how much I admire his brilliant mind.  I respect his choice and I like you would like to see him happy about being Atheist.  I do not judge.  This is a free country, thank the Lord!  I am a Christian and as proud of that if not prouder as I am at being AMERICAN.  This is my choice which is part of the God given freedom and the freedom granted by our country.  Not every person who professes to be a Christian is a Christian.  I would be willing to place a pretty solid wager that not every Aethiest who professes to be an Antheist is indeed a true Aetheist.  It is simply our choice to make that choice.  Once made we need to live by it and allow others to live by theirs choices as well.  That's what America is all about.

THINK FREE  AND YOU WILL BE FREE!

God Bless, my friend.
