    Dear sir,

         Stop being such a pissant, if people want to be saved they will
    be. I truthfully am my own person, and i believe that there is a god,
    but i also believe that you have managed to warp the idea of a god to
    such a degree, you live your life in fanatacism, you most likely are
    part of numerous church groups, and live your life only coming into
    contact with those who share your same fanatacism, also, you are so
    concerned about your after life that you neglect taking time to enjoy
    the one you have, i can understand religious people, i can repect their
    beliefs, but what i cant respect are those who are sooo introverted
    into and upon their god that they try to force it upon others, as well
    as their belief system about god. i mean, if the catholics,
    prodastants, and methodists would just give up their differences and
    agree to tackle the bigger problem rather than squabling amongst
    themselves, then they would be able to accomplish so much more. oh, and
    on a side note, as for your almight god, look at the past, read a
    direct translation of the koran, it is the only holy book that has all
    12 of the gospels, try reading the gospel of timothy, it, and the other
    7 gospels arent found in the bibel because these gospels, rather than
    acknowledging jesus as a god, and a figure above men, it recognizes him
    as a wise man, a man with insight, and recognizes his religion as a way
    for the people to better themselves. another little tidbit for you is
    that the man known as buddah, jesus, and mithra (roman, mithradic,
    greek, and babalonian) were all born within 50 years of one another,
    and for the firs century everything went great, all their teaching were
    rather close together, but then the vatacan and some weirdo's got their
    hands on their teachings, from this the christianity and judaic split
    occured, the mithradic cults were formed, and the teaching of buddah
    were split into what would later influence confucianism, hinduism,
    buddhism, the torah, koran, and various other eastern religions.

    in closing, please, before you go off to convert others and try to take
    them to your circle of religion, please, know the history of your own
    damn religion well enough to debate it rather than following it with
    blind faith, because after all, blind faith is what has caused needless
    blood shed, and is the most dangerous thing of all, for when you no
    longer posess your wits and decisions, you become nothing more than an
    atomaton droid, souless, and without value of life.

After a conversation in which I was challenged rather vehemently to give accounting of the reasons behind the choice I made many years ago to begin to study Buddhism, and having left my Christian background and prior belief system behind, I determined that it might be OK if I sat down and wrote the reasons down on a one to one, personal level to try to help my friend and others to understand why I have chosen the spiritual path which has become such a big part of my life. ...
