One thing that disturbs me is that people that say something like "look, theyre all hippocrates in that they say one thing and do another" or listen to some far outs and say they can't believe in a religion because of all those, is just an excuse. You don't go to Church to be like them. You go to Church to worship your God in your own way. No one is perfect. The basics of Christians is the Bible. And it is really hard to understand. Everyone sins. Many really bad. It is my choice to be a Christian, although I know I'm sure not a very good one. When someone hurts me I have a really hard time giving the other cheek. I have a really hard time with wanting to get back at them. We all fail everyday, probably every minute. I believe that conception is the start of a new life. I have a hard time with abortion because I do believe it is a soul. I also have a hard time knowing that some women will die because of trying to get an abortion, mostly by themselves. I do believe the life of the mother is probably more important than the life of a baby, especially if she already has other children to raise. So, I guess I really straddle the fence a lot. Of course, if Eve hadn't eaten that apple, maybe none of us would be here. I do have trouble with "one sin is as bad as another". Seems as if it should be that murder is worse than gossipping.
