Thank you, Albert, very succinct. I am reminded of a person who is quite a sociopath but orders us to join her in reciting a rosary at wakes in a funeral parlour. The tradition here calls for banter between old friends. I am determined to stop the person in future with a firm and loud 'would you kindly pray in private !'
________________________________ From: Albert Peres <a Ana you can save your self. Everyone is free to form their own religion based on any scripture including the words Jesus Christ. During the last 2000 years many people, in fact entire congratulations, have. There is no monopoly on Christianity. If you accept a church, you must accept its history - good or bad. If you don't agree with leaders, move in a constructive manner to change them. Become a leader yourself. If you feel you are too frail to do so, take a direct path. There is no roadblock to having a personal relationship with God. Churches, religion, empires, are merely the paths previously paved, which now regrettably now need to be maintained. --- Ana Maria Fernandes wrote --- Thu Oct 25 08:45:20 PDT 2012 Subject: Please save us Jesus Christ had founded a very nice religion. Today we people who called ourselves religious and elite people have ruined our religion. Jesus used to read the scriptures. He even went to synogue and preached the word of God. What status do our religion have? We are just Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and Hindus. Can any one change our leaders who have become money minded? Lord God heavenly King save them.
