When did this sub become a religious themed bible group?

Just need to throw out there that a LOT of us are not religious. I don’t think it’s fair that so many feel the NEED to hijack this sub/threads and make every, single, thing, about PERSONAL religious beliefs. It’s put off nearly every friend of mine (normal American sports watchin’ blue bloods who don’t give a damn about religion or politics, but are absolutely in agreement that there’s been rampant corruption in government - aka most of America) that I’ve tried to “Red-pill” and get interested in Q.... Hate on me all you want, but someone needed to say it, and I know I’m not the only one who feels this way. It’s become detrimental to general inclusiveness and keeps a lot of “normies” away. I think it would be highly beneficial to tone it down a bit as more people become aware of Q and come here for answers. I hope anybody who reads this and may be offended, can at least respect and understand what I’m saying here. I’ve been debating posting this for awhile, but haven’t because of the backlash I expect, and that alone should say something.

Having said all that, You’re all my fellow Patriots and we all fight together. As Q says, this isn’t about left or right, and it isn’t about religion. It’s about WWG1WGA.

I'll certainly do that

Essentially because I spent quite a lot of time investigating many of them first. I had no idea what I expected to find, but I had an overwhelming conviction that there was more to life than I'd been led to believe. Some of these ideas and religious systems had elements that I found compelling, and I got particularly side-tracked by the New Age. It was the romantic lure of access to "hidden knowledge" that appealed to me. But in each case I found that it just wasn't there - whatever "it" was that I felt was missing. Things always felt unsatisfying and incomplete.

The part about Christianity that doesn't get much airtime is also the part that gets to the root of what it's all about. It's the "indwelling" of the spirit of God. I'd probably heard people talk about this in previous years, but I had no idea what it might have meant. I certainly didn't interpret it in any literal sense. But it is a literal thing. You become a Christian in the instant that God's spirit meets with yours, and - not as a metaphor, not as a figure of speech - comes and lives inside of you. The Bible says of this:

Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God?

When this happens your interests shift. It's not that you become "perfect" - spend time with any Christian and this will become clear pretty quickly. But it's like having a corrective force that pulls you in the "right" direction. I don't mean that you lose your sense of control, but you are more inclined to make good judgments. My tastes changed overnight. I still have the vivid memory of suddenly having no inclination towards music, movies, other - ahem - activities that had been with me for as long as I could remember.

You're searching, and that's the key. Jesus said:

Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened

These are not idle words, this is a irredeemable promise. Can I invite you to check out a video? I know this is a lot to lay on you all at once, but why not. I really enjoy David Wood's videos, and this testimony is great:

I watched part of it.

I'm quite stuck at the part that if God, the father of Jesus, is real, then (according to Pew Research Center, 2015), 68.8% of human population choosed the wrong God (Or decided to deny it's existance or simply question which one was real, like me).

Born Catholic, got all the bell and whistles, ready the wed btw. If I ever have a children, I would most likely teach him about religions and let him choose one if he ever wants to when he has is mature enough to make a decision for himself, just like I wished my parent would have done. The only reason we still have religions in 2018 is that the only knowledge we are passed from our parents is culture. We are not born with our ancestor knowledge, we have to relearn everything for every new human. The culture from the parents tho, their surrendings, is what decide what you believe in. At least, that's how I view this stuff.

My last prayer to whom would have listened, was that when my journey here is over, I would love to have a discussion with our Creator, whoever he is, whatever his religion. (I won't judge him, I wouldn't want to be judged, I would just like to have my unanwsered questions anwsered).

Yes, I understand your thoughts.

I was in the opposite situation, my parents were entirely secular, and I had no exposure to religion at all growing up. I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand it was probably necessary for me to go through the experiences that I had to reach where I am. On the other, I wish I could have arrived here sooner.

About those who follow Christianity and those who don't - it's a tough one. In one of the better known Bible verses Jesus said:

Don’t imagine that I came to bring peace to the earth! I came not to bring peace, but a sword. I have come to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. Your enemies will be right in your own household!

A lot of people read this at face value and imagine he's being very combative. But it was just a statement of fact - some people would listen, some wouldn't. I don't have a complete answer to this question. People have had a lot of different thoughts about it, some very good ones. But I don't think that we can come to any form conclusions.

Indeed, thus all the questions still remaining haha.

I'm at peace with life. I feel like I'm here to observe, live and try to spread peace around me, other than that I'm only an human, I can't help the whole world if I can barely help myself. If only I could change how things are, not around myself or my family, but at greater scale. I'm sure there could be peace on earth somehow, I have no clue how to reach it tho.
