No longer a Non-Christian? Why not?

[St_Worm2]

Former Non-Christians, I've been following a thread that Aldebaran started called, No longer a Christian? Why not?. I thought it would be interesting to hear from the other side as well so, if you are a former atheist, agnostic, humanist, deist, LDS, JW, Muslim, etc., please let us know why you decided that Christianity is true after all.

Thanks!

Yours and His,
David

I felt an inner something prompting me to travel in a direction which, as an apatheist, with no very high opinion of self appointed guardians of the nation's morality, I felt Ill inclined to travel in.

I have had similar experiences since, prompting me to adjust my religious opinions. Every time I have resisted them, and every time I have eventually given way.

Glutton for punishment, this one is.

Well I like to give to the poor. Does that count? Ir do I have to do the scouts honor hand signal and reject all works of the devil too?

Meaning: I am influenced by Christ, but not rally a "christian" in an orthodox sense.

Giving to the poor has nothing to do with being a Christian. The salient question here is whether you believe there was a person named Jesus who was the son of God, and that God exists.

Because the Bible has the answers to many questions that are not answerable.

This is not a philosophical topic. It's in the wrong forum.

Perhaps you are correct. Which forum do you believe would be more appropriate (perhaps GT/Salvation)? I put it here, as I said in the OP, because I was following the thread and topic, "No longer a Christian? Why not?", that was already here in Philosophy. Perhaps both would be better elsewhere on CF?
