Since this completely pertains to this thread, I will just copy and paste my original thoughts here. I am a firm believer in Jesus Christ, I just see him everywhere, I guess its because I really started to listen. I will tell you a story at the end.
What I posted:
It the kind of Christian that you are being exposed to. There are the Christians that do anything to go to heaven then the ones that actually care. That's me and Trueno.
We don't wish to cram it down your throat, actually we can't. The bible says we can tell you the good news but you do with it what you want, God will poke at your heart, if you don't bite its not our fault. We will feel bad for you yes, but we can't force you, then its not a choice and you didn't make it.
However, I believe so strongly that if I can save someone, I will, it is important for me to share the news because hey, true or false if its true you will be sorry, if its false you will lie in your grave, you don't want to think about it as a safety cushion, but I believe its true, so hey, its your choice.
I think you met Christians that just told you what to believe, This is what happens to most people. Then you label these people as "Christianity" Suddenly all Christians are this whacked and forceful. This is VERY untrue. True Christians (no tm) are people who want to help you, to guide you, and to just poke at your heart, see where your morals are and if you are ready to accept Christ. We don't want to barge in and say accept Jesus or burn in hell. That is not right, it is not you must accept him this second or die. For some people it takes them years, YEARS to find where their heart is, and wonder what is the emptiness here?
Trust me, when you really mature completely (I don't mean loveually, or growth wise, its not age at all, its when you start looking at the bigger picture), you will wonder this. I am 17 but matured, like trueno, very fast to see the world in more of a 3D spectrum not a iD. And in iD i mean ME D. The world holds a lot more than you probably see right now, its not all about Girls and what to wear, how to look, and what to say. Its what created this, how can I join him. Why is the earth such an amazing creation and who could make it.
Something to think about:
If you are walking in a desert, and you see a watch. Do you believe it built itself and placed itself there, or do you believe during one time, there was a watch maker? Just some brain food.
The bang might have happened but who made the particles that made the bang and what made the particles that made the particles that made the bang... It all started somewhere and there is no scientific evidence to proof it "just appeared".
And no, before you ask, I am not one of those I DON'T BELIEVE IN SCIENCE people, Science is something God gave us, without God, there would be no science, and no matter what science says, you can always deny the finding about the start of the world, and the start of life.
One of the biggest fears of the world is the fear of the unknown. I use to be terrified, but for real, this is no hogwash, I no longer fear the unknown, because I know God put it there, so what is unknown about it, if i know its creator?
A lot of people will quickly turn from Religion because they are exposed to, terrorists, extremists.. etc.. But, Don't just blow this off. This is a big decision, not just because you could go to hell, but mostly because you could believe in something, belief is one of the most powerful human things on this earth. It is a power of faith that you would stand in front of a blasting storm to defend, to love, and to learn about. Faith drives Religion not the other way around. If you say your Christian, Jewish, Muslim.. you have the faith to believe not the religion to believe.
So if you want to really find something that you can believe in, live in, and thrive in, Find someone that is always there, that will help you at the blink of an eye. Sometimes people don't stop and wonder how the little things came to be, but if you just stop and think and think and think, you will realize pretty quickly that these things didn't just happen with a big boom... It was a lot more than that.
