I don't wear a cross but if I did then I would see it as a reminder of what Jesus has done for me and how I should live. Sometimes during the day I forget how I should act and it would be a good reminder, but I don't wear one. I don't know if this is the right answer or not but I don't necessarily think you would be satisfied with it anyways. It seems as though, a lot of times, when people start these types of posts it just ends up bashing those who believe.
"Burning_Inside I often wonder how much socially advanced we'd be as a whole if there wasn't religion locking people in cages. "
I agree. I think people should spend more time practicing what the Bible teaches and how Jesus lived than practice religion.
"decem
huntmaster.... thanks for the concern slick.. but um... i won't be judged by any one slick..
scurry along now.. you don't wanna miss your next opportunity to go shoot some deer and some raccoons in the name of jesus christ..."
Why would he be shooting them in the name of Jesus Christ?
"decem enough with the biblical quotes.. they don't mean shit.. "
This is true and people must remember that when talking to non-believers, Bible quotes don't mean anything.

With all due respect to that statement, why dont you post some Bible quotes up that talk about the mass murders that were committed in the name of Christianity. There are plenty of them. Most people that post bible quotes, only quote the happy good stuff, or things that support their opinions. They never want to reveal the true darkside. Whatever.

I just wrote a post about how there is no point to it. I was not being negative if you took it that way. Also, I have no point in posting a Bible quote of mass murders if the post is about crosses.
I believe in God...I believe in Jesus...I wear my cross b/c it's a reminder that there is more to life then what meets the eye...certain things around you are unseen but have a great impact on your life...your soul can't be seen or touched but YOU KNOW it's there...the same idea applies to God for me personally..I don't do it to follow a "religious trend"...I am not a "holy roller", I don't go to Church every Sunday, I just have my personal beliefs that are with me everyday...and I love how mature some of you can be with your stupid jokes...if you don't understand the idea of God then that is your deal, I won't sit here and post stupid pictures and make corny jokes about it
If you want to you can justify anything all the things you do in the Bible. It's easy to take out quotes here and there but if you take it out of context then it doesn't have the same meaning.
taken out of context or not, but why is there always a need to unleash the "wrath of god".....seems to me that is quite a crutch when it comes to the bible, a lovely literary fiction piece if you ask me. There have been more death in the name of religion then for any other reason. Examples....Crusades, spanish inquizitions....
