| Most people have major tragedies along lifes path. Do to these tragedies some people's way of getting over them is to convert to christianity so in this way it is like a pain killer that only works if you truly believe in it. Also like a pain killer it can have side effects such as ignorance, and tyrannic dictators using it to gain power. It also can be addicting as some people dedicate their lives in service to the lord or you can't talk to them without them uttering some line from the bible. But also as a pain killer if you use sparsely and use it only to get out of lifes ruts then it can have splendid results. So I would say christianity is more like a pain killer then an addictive drug it can be deadly in large doses when mixed with ignorance but in small doses can help you deal with life's burdens. |
