I was over at CARM.ORG and after taking the pummeling of hate and bitterness from some, I was approached by a believer, who asked me to clarify what I had written on what Jesus said..."because many formers do not keep a sabbath, they "don't bother to follow what Jesus said."
I went over it and then asked, "why is that so many feel they are hated if they are 'formers' or have stopped going to church or struggle with a belief. I have struggled with many things that God has shown me, yet have not come across the pain that I see in some..."
Are 'formers' or 'free thinkers' as I call them, being mistreated by brethren from their church? If so, why, do they bring it on themselves or are they being "blackballed" for rejecting a belief or beliefs?
I dont want any personal attacks on this thread, I want to see what is the issue that is behind all of this...
