Just something I was reading on the Ambrosia boards. What depresses me is that while apparently Christians persecute non-believers all the time (sometimes in our very existing) but non-believers "never" persecute Christians. After spending a debate on #ev3 (the irc branch of said webboards) it strikes me that whereas we have faith which requires no logic only a trust in God, they are relying on science and facts. Facts which weren't facts 100 years ago and won't be facts in 100 years. When I pointed this out they seemed to bluster and change the subject. Granting in the greater sphere of things I should probably just not have spoken up but I hate it when people who don't believe in God trash His name so they can feel more secure about their beliefs. It'd just be nice though if neither side jabbed out at the other. I know I'm guilty of doing that, so heh, maybe I'll take my own words to heart. :/
Anyhow, not ranting now, I am looking forward to work tonight despite how my feet are gonna hurt and/or bleed. I am getting rather lonely here at home and some human contact would be really nice. You'd think with AIM and e-mail that such a thing wouldn't be an issue but it rather is alas.
Happily I got to talk with Jessie last night, first time in awhile. Hopefully I can get down and visit her sometime, I miss her. Granting I miss lots of my friends right now. It's boring in La Crosse!

Depends on what you mean by persecution. Christians are being slaughtered on a daily basis from North Africa all the way through to Indonesia. Forget Tibet, where the struggle is political. What about the Sudan, where Christians are slaves and tortured for a professed faith in God?
I'm willing to die to prove my God exists, are you willing to die to prove he doesn't?
