Many , many , times Christians say to me "read the Bible, pray and you will know the truth." Or something along those lines.
Well....since I was raised as a Christian missionary child
I have almost the whole Bible memorized.
Yet I still don't believe in it.
I've prayed countless prayers, all through out my life.
Yet I still don't believe in it.
I've looked for the "truth" in this God of yours.
Yet I still don't believe in Him.
So now what?
I'm curious as what you have to say, now that your all-purpose for all questions that aren't as you like for them to be, "answer".....is now obviously not an answer for me.
( or countless others. )
Though I am now a happy Buddhist I am still interested if there is anything else you think that would help me to see what you see in your religion. I'm open. So pray tell me!!
Thank you.
xx-Bo.
*Note* I wrote that I am a "Buddhist" not "atheist".
There is a difference.
