Ok I was planning to make this thread a while ago, but there was a similar thread recently, however it didn't really answer my question. A lot of the christians in this forum were raised in a christian society, more specifically a western protestant society. Their great grand parents, grand parents, parents, and their ancestors were all protestant christian. They don't remember their baptism since it was in their infancy too. So therefore they're christian because of their ancestory, area, and they were raised that way. Me personally I have a long ancestry of muslims, my family is still muslim infact, but I became christian and secretly converted after months of historical research and coming to the conclusion that christianity is the only religion that can be seriously backed up. Plus the emotional and spiritual experience I have had, Jesus made me cry like a baby. I am not even baptized yet and when I am I will remember it. When I came on this forum, I expect a lot of christian people around the world, especially converts. Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, Coptic, Former Hindu, Former Muslim, Former Jew, Russian, American, Egyptian, Syrian, Greek, Georgian, Romanian etc. But no, its mostly protestant christian people in the western world that grew up in christian society. It's not that I don't like that, it's just I expect more from a huge website like this where any christian wherever they are can come together, instead it's people who are raised as christian people in a christian majority nation. Sometimes I kind of feel alone on this since I am a convert and my family and land has no experience with christianity.
