Why People Run From Christianity

Every day I look online for something amusing, something to add assurance to my deep seeded belief that people are really crazier than jack rabbits.

So, the day after the big blizzard, producing a swath of 20 inch snow covering half of America, I found this one.

Further, this email post by Roger Gutierrez on a Yahoo comments section following a AP blizzard story not only shows how crazy people can become, but also how people actually look forward and really enjoy major catastrophes.

Roger is a Bible believer and loves God. Nothing wrong there.

Roger also believes God is punishing America for being an unGodly nation.

How does he know that, I asked. I surmised either Roger has a direct line to the Creator or Roger thinks he is God himself.

After hearing voices, he predicts major floods, earthquakes hale stones, tidal waves, a foreign power attacking Los Angeles, starvation and all the blood and guts right out of a Hollywood horror movie.

He says. “A nation that forgets God will be turned into Hell.”

Well, Roger let me say this. A nation has no feelings, no intelligence and cannot love or hate anything.

Also, in my feeble understanding of the Creator, he does not punish anyone. It is people who punish themselves and unfortunately many other people as well.

In fact, Roger, a nation cannot be turned into Hell because Hell does not exist.

Just for the record what I said is not anti Biblical; It is simply understanding the word Hell and eternal punishment are words that have been misinterpreted and placed in the Bible by man, not God.

So chew on that for awhile.

Also, I am printing Roger’s comments to show that many people run away from Christianity, not wanting to associate themselves with the lunacy contained below.
