No matter how bad you think things were for you, someone else was far worse off. No matter how bad the Christian system around you had become, within that rotten shell was the loving Savior Jesus, Who loves you, and gave His life for your sins.
Well amen to all of that. No matter what you think I think of Christianity, I do appreciate some of those I met there still today. In fact, most of my friends today are from the LC. And look at me now. If I didn't have the Bible and Christianity to find fault with, what would I do all day? I guess I have a love/hate relationship to them. I'm all kinds of screwed up.
