Re: Child Baptism
I remember so many discussions about children who were way too young to be baptized. It was so negative. I don’t miss any of that. I don’t miss the baptism obsession and constantly focusing on it. The CofC is negative and not enriching. I regret raising our children in it. It was a nightmare for eve...

Re: What the CoC is right about?
Longdistancerunnner, the main reason for my disillusionment was having a gay son, and someone exposing him at our church when he was in high school. Many other factors contributed to leaving, though.

Re: What the CoC is right about?
I was thinking about this topic when I was lying in bed last night. I don’t think the CofC is right about much, IMO. I don’t agree with a literal interpretation of everything in the Bible, and I don’t think the important thing is being right about everything. I have been out of the CofC almost nine ...

I think they have the correct interpretation of the book of Revelation.

Re: Easter Posting/Zombie Passage Matthew 27:53
I think the snake handling/poison thing is part of a later addition to Mark and was not in the original manuscript.

Re: Discussion about Billy Graham?
I really doubt Billy Graham gave any thought to the CofC.

Re: Revelations
I think so, B.H. I don’t thing Revelation is literal at all. There is no Rapture or earthly reign of Jesus.

Re: Christmas at Church?
I don’t think Halloween was ever an issue with most CofC people. They made a bigger deal out of how not to celebrate Christmas and Easter.

Re: Christmas at Church?
After being out of the CofC for eight years and attending a Disciples of Christ church, I have realized that the CofC is really not enriching and its members miss out on a lot. It is just not a good church, but children raised in it are taught a lot of Bible stories and are educated with Biblical kn...
