I'm not a Christian because it's a washed down version of Religion.
It's like reading Book reviews in front of the Library.

A washed down version? What do you mean by this?

You prefer to be a Christian fundamentalist, not washing the message down at all, I know this isn't what you believe, can you explain in a bit moe detail what you mean.



My reponse is - I just don't get it. God is clearly not a writer of books.
