    Re: I don't know anything about God but I'm here to learn

    Well, that's quite a big question! My suggestion would be that you start by reading the Bible (King James Version, 1611) and then come back with something a little more specific. You may have trouble finding a copy in your country, but never fear! It is available free, online, here:


    The best way to read it is to start at the beginning, read right through to the end and then stop. But feel free to ask questions as you go along.



    Don't worry about that. You will find us very tolerant of foreigners. About 5 miles from where I live, on a clear day we could see France if we chose to look in that direction, but absolutely nobody expects the French to speak proper English, let alone write it.

    I don't think I have the time to read EVERYTHING tonight, as I need to go sleep soonish to be ready for school tomorrow.



    And I do my best to speak proper English. I really enjoy this language, even moreso than French. It sounds smoother, as long as it's not me speaking it.



    And thanks for your tip, I'll be sure to try and read all of that whenever I've got the time for it.



    One question I could ask you, however, is what is the main differences between christians, catholics and orthodoxes.



    Thank you again for taking the time to answer me, I really appreciate it

    I never knew my grandparents, they died before I was born, thank you for reminding me.

    They were most likely atheists too, as France removed sunday school about 200 years ago now.

    Did you know that in America, a yellow jacket is a particularly nasty sort of wasp?

    Nope, I had no idea ! There's still lots of things I don't know about the english/american language.



    And my question about your faith would be, to keep it short, what is *everything*. I really know nothing about it, beside the fact that God created everything, and then had Jesus who died for our sins but Jesus is also God, which is also really confusing for me.
    I know some other things but really not much.

    Thanks for your welcome !
    And well, I may not dress all neat like the christians on this pic, but beside this and the fact that I'm not sure I believe in God yet, I'm polite, never did drugs or drank alcohol.
    And I guess you're right about acting like this if we all listened to the Bible, but atheists are often greedy, and Macron doesn't seem as good with economy as Trump is.

    And if I may add, Christ isn't "Illegal", we just don't learn about it in school and we stopped swearing on the bible as religion and the state are now separated.

    See, as some of you may know, France is a country where religion is cast out of schools and all this, so I never learned anything about it, as I also grew up in an atheist household.



    From what I've seen all of you here know a *lot* of things on the Bible and all that, so if you don't mind I'd like you all to help me learn and grow.

    Thanks !
    Well hello and welcome to our friendly forum! You'll notice Americans aren't rebelling and making a public nuisance of ourselves in those goofy yellow workman's vests like they do in Paris. It's because you French have made Christ illegal, and now you must face the sad consequences. With Christ as our Center, it is no coincidence America is run like a well oiled machine! You might find Pastor Zeke's sermon about the difference between Christians and atheists to be particularly helpful to you!
