what appear to me to be hypocrites involved in the church. I cannot claim to be a Christian, though I have been thinking a lot about religion in recent years, particularly Christianity, as that is the faith in which I was brought up (but more along the lines of the hypocritical version). It just seems to me that so many things do go right along with readings in
the bible. I'm not just talking about apocalyptic events and how the world will be in the end times, although it is uncanny if you look at what is going on in the world today. I'm certainly not a Bible scholar either, but it seems to me that a lot of so-called Christians do not live the lives expected (by God) of true Christians. I truly wish though that I had more religious training and a better understanding of all religions growing up (and now). Faith is a very difficult thing for me.
