For many people who believe in God
Religion is good for them
But is the opposite can be said about faith be bad for you
I think of the saying too much anything isn't good but can the same be said about Christians and religion in general
Have ever been a case with one person took their faith so seriously that drove them mad like one example of this is radical Muslims or it could be any religion that is misinterpreted by people who killed in the name of God but that's extreme example but this is not what I'm not thinking about that person I'm reflecting on individual that lives everyday life day by day that is driven mad by believing in Jesus so much that becomes obsessed and delusional that shows on the surface
That becomes an issue
I'm using multiple examples of this
I often times think of a good friend from high school that every time I saw him he would always tell me I need Jesus in my life almost got to the point that got sick of being around him but at the time I was not in religion or Jesus finally I said enough of this and got your point well now we don't talk anymore this is one instance just one
Now when I look at religion I see something different in him that was not the effort that mattered it was a point he wanted to better me as a whole it's how he went about doing it but obviously he was not a trendsetter but when I look back at my life in those days I see the impact Jesus had on his life and a negative and positive way this is just one example of too much religion
Here is another example
Maybe even a hypothetical situation
Often times I'm doing something then all of a sudden you hear the doorbell rang only to answer it only find that is someone trying to sell you something obviously without pointing the finger we know about religion were talking about
But by having me invite them into my home and discussing the subject matter only to greatly regret ever doing so
For me it's obviously taking religion too far
For me that's not how Christianity should not be done maybe it's just my opinion
Meaning what's the point with going door by door trying the overkill your religion
It's clearly most people don't have the time such Notions after several months of them coming around on Monday I had to pretty much tell two ladies to get lost it was not very Christian of me but it was the only way to get rid of them is that the way Jesus would want it to be done
One final example I have this Uncle
This is much more deeper of a subject
He grew up as a Christian but by the time he reached age 24 he began coming up with several ideas about God and religion that many people found his ideas offensive he began making more of it then it should be he often said things that did not make sense to his friends and family where beginning to get concerned about his well being then all sudden something changed in him he took ten steps back and looked at his objectives in his life how he acts and how he behave change dramatically but not his religious beliefs instead of judging people he began helping them he became more self-aware of his environment
I see this person now he is much better off like this he is more able to go with the flow of things get along with others
By helping people instead of hindering them only benefits the group as a whole
My point is this have you ever come across a situation like this or have you something to add to my examples I described thoughts please?
