- I just have a few questions for the person who wrote this:
-
- A. Must a `Good Christian' lose many of his\her friends who are of
- another or no religion because these friends simply get tired of
- listening to someone telling them to be Christian?
-
- B. In the same way, must a `Good Christian' lose these same friends
- for lack of any non-religion-related conversations?
-
- C. Anger is an emotion which, in my opinion, comes as quickly as it
- feels like in the person it does. Is it *WRONG* for a `Good
- Christian' to feel angry in any other way than being slow to it
- as you say? *IS THIS HEALTHY???*
-
- If your answer to all of these is yes..
-
-
- Even if I was a Christian, I could never be what you call a good
- one.
