Hey, I respect your viewpoint, and welcome your thoughts.

But if your basing your notions of heaven being full of Rocky's and whether you'd like to spend time there or not based on that, then you're a lot further on the fringe than I thought. It's sad that someone of ANY religion would think..."I just can't be a part of this church because I don't like this person" and why that should ever have anything to do with your own personal testimony. I apologize, but to me that's a thought process that smacks of a person desperately seeking a way out rather than discovering one's own testimony. It's always convenient to blame one's loss of faith and testimony on another individual. It's the easy way out.

I apologize for using a worn out cliche but the Gospel is a hell of a lot more true than I am. Just because you don't like my style or demeanor doesn't make the Gospel any less true.
