User ID: 83788710 Canada 07/02/2022 10:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So called "Christian" pastors, or people "who found God in their later 30s, or 40s" Or whatever their generic, uninspiring story is. I swear they're a dime-a-dozen and everywhere. The stereotype of the formerly-degenerate man who later turned into a pastor at age 40 when his testosterone levels got completely nuked. "I used to live a life of sin, slept with random women every weekend, did all the drugs in the world in my 20s..." Okay, so, you basically had carte blanche to live the most degenerate life possible in your 20s when your hormones were raging (and possibly partly into your 30s) and then you found "God" when you could no longer keep your **** up. So isn't that a bit like cheating? And shouldn't your target audience then be older people? Like why should a college kid find guidance from your message for example?

I knew this thread would be extremely polarizing. |

And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower and when He could be certain only drowning men could see Him- Leonard Cohen |
