just breakin the ice with the name, sorry if any offense...
you know i have talked with many people that also have had religion forced upon them
I believe that it was brought to them in the oppisite way God intended
It's all about a personal relationship with him if you let that happen
he will do the rest, if you don't give that a chance, you will never know.
You know if something was forced upon you, you were being controlled and that is not a totally loving situation of God. So I personally think it is'nt fair to blame that forcing on a possibility that can save you.
