Greetings, I'm Aleuthyra. I'm going to be 17 at the end of October and I'm an agnostic/atheist who is just online to find out more about Christianity. I've never been a Christian but was raised in it somewhat and now I'm living with my aunt and uncle and want to be kind to them and find out more about religion. So here I am. I am a total artist who loves every type of media and I love to read. I don't believe in censorship or discrimination whenever it's possible to avoid, and I try to accept all people for who they are and not what I want them to be. Anyway, that's me. :evil: :P

Hi, John here. I see in your profile that you are in Coldwater Mich. My wife was born in Lansing & I was born in a little town called Hartford. (aprox. 200 miles west of Detroit) We live in South Carolina now.
You ask questions about Christianity? Just a thought from this end. The best method of 'Spiritual knowledge' is the study of the Master's Word! The same way as being an student, huh? Study, that is. Do you own a Bible? If you do, read 2 Tim. 3:16 & see what you get out of that verse?
Anyhow, welcome to the forum. I believe that this is one of the very best forums that I have ever used (one of very many) as far as your referance to 'censorship', that you say you do not believe in.
The only censorship that I believe in are filth & illigal postings. Forums are not even close to being a church denomination. I do believe in the 'church keys' for baptizing & dis/fellowshiping members. See Matt. 16:19 & Matt.18:15-18.
Just one observation from this end. (that being me & my computor! :fadein: )
If ever you see a post by me that sounds like I am judging [any] persons motives, please be advised that, that is not the case! I try to stay away from mind reading, or mind reading accusations from others. But that is not always seen by others as the case. Yet, I always try to respond to ONLY the persons POSTING! OK?
And yes, surely there are open & shut judgement calls based on scriptural Truths. Read Joshua 7:12's last part of the verse.
Take care!
---John
