"If I hear just one more time that I should try & be more open minded, think I just might scream! This world says this is all there is, yet I believe the One who says there's life after this- how much more open can my mind be?!?" Mercy Me 'One Trick Pony'
I am not trying to spark some big debate right off but I thought I would start with putting my faith out on the table. One of the big things that frustrate me as a Christian is being put in a "box"... yes, I am (& find no conflict with) a woman & pro-life, I have a BS in Biology from a liberal arts college & believe in creation, I believe that sin exists & that it does not have to define you/me, I stand firm in my convictions & believe that all people deserve love & respect regardless of whether their beliefs match mine, I could go on but as I said, I am not trying to flame a debate. I am simply tired of people assuming they know all there is about me because I am a Christian- I promise I am as complicated as the next person (more so my hubby would say:), I respect people, I expect people to respect me. Don't put me in a box & I won't put you in one...deal? :)
