Christianity Without the Bullshit

The network name says it all

Tired of the bullshit that traditional churches and the "religion" of Christianity make you wade through to get to Jesus?

Wow. This pretty much happened to me about 5 years ago. The church we were part of used us up. I haven't been to a traditional church service in 4 years and I don't miss it, but I miss some of the people. I have found that once you "leave" a church,…

'A point?' the man asks shock… Continue

Explaining Starry Night as a symbol of this group



In case you were wondering about the use of Starry Night as a symbol around this site:

The avatar was selected as a counter to the BS that the church i… Continue
