Lying to people.
Discussion
Lying? Now where did you get that from?
I was tryin go spark some humor into conversation and because I'm Cristian if only on paper like most of us are what is there to lie?
You said it is easier to get a wife if she is into it. So you lie about being christian to her or her parents, to try to get her.
You interpreted it incorrectly. Read the note again.
I don't understand.
I make an example to clarify. If you are already married and your wife is into religion (that usually comes from how we've been raised) then their parents might like you more if they knew you are christian.
It's not lying if you are Christian on paper because I grew up in a Christian family.
I'm just not practicing religion 🤷
They might like you more if they think that a piece of paper makes you more "christian",
but you are only christian on paper.
Its lying because you are not believing in god, jesus, the bible and that is a part of being christian.
If you tell, that you have one bitcoin and write it down on a piece of paper, but the bitcoin was never mined and is neither on the blockchain you don't have it.
Is it possible to be a Christian without believing in God? Traditional views like yours may say no, but I consider myself a Christian because I grew up in a Christian manners but with time I became, lets say a 'cultural Christian.'
I may not believe in a higher power, but I still value the morals and ethics that come with the culture of Christianity. Why? Because being me doesn't harm anyone, and that's what truly matters.
I find joy and purpose in the simplest things like a walk in the park, the colors of autumn leaves, and the vastness of our universe as seen from mountain peaks. There's so much to experience and so much to ponder in our modern age, why seek comfort in something I don't believe in and not agreeing with their 'logic'?
For me, just 'being' without getting lost in the chaos around is what gives life meaning. So yes, I may be a Christian on paper, and if you have a hard time understanding that, feel free to contact my church and ask them why they still keep me on their records even I hadn't been in a church for ages. At the end of the day, I'll continue to live my life in a way that brings me peace and happiness and so is you 🫂
