An Atheist Helps A Christian. . . . .Different Perspectives. by Nobody: 8:05am On Dec 24, 2012
So I'm a christian.
I get on the poles at the club. I shake what my mama gave me.
My cross pendant jiggles between my breast while I dance all over the boys.
But I'm still a christian, don't judge me.
I'm part of my church's choir.
I talk to my pastor long after church hours (You know, so that the extra anointing oil does not go to waste).
I pray 6 times a day, 20 mins per prayer.
Read my Bible 7 times a day, 20 mins in length

That's enough about me.

I have a dilemma.

Well, I had a dilemma.

None of my christian buddies came to help me.

An atheist friend did. My christian buddies turned on me.

Should I still see this as God's intervention? Why would God send an atheist to help me?

Why not another christian buddy?

You practice without knowing why you do, just because your born into it. I am not a christain, a muslim..
One of the problem is most people follow blindly, without understanding what they are and why they are doing so.
What you should do is go back to the bases with an open heart, and ask why christainity, why did I choose this religion.. Research and investigate..


As for your issue, God brought us to this world to dwell with one another, let's not forget he created us all. So, He has no issues with anybody, TILL you return to Him.. That's why there a heven and hell.

Ma'am, I said no judging.
As a Christian lady, I see nothing wrong with how I behave as long as I ASK FOR FORGIVENESS. My pastor told me so.
Isn't that what all we theist do nowadays?

If my Christian pipu failed to help, why should I believe God sent an atheist to help me? My atheist buddy had me questioning this religion.
Must we follow a religion to be spiritually fulfilled? Must we follow a congregation to be morally sustained?

Should christian still perceive a helpful atheist as a favor from God? As God "opening the door"?

Not really.

My sins are forgiven once I genuflect to pray.

God holds no grudges. He's a kind and forgiving man.

My slate is clean. My sins are forgiven.

Even tho we Christians have become so lax in practicing our faith, we are still loved.

Sorry you feel that way, wasn't my intention. My point is know why you are a christain!


Have you thought of it this way.
God sent him/her to you so that you show him/her that there a God!? And not you doubting the existence of one.

Catholics are superior.

We have the mother Mary statue and Jesus' cross in our church.

Some call them idols, but we call them a symbol of faith smiley
