the christian web

every year at the star awards, an increasing number of award winners thank 'god' or 'lord' or 'father' in their speeches. this speaks of more converts and it really isn't a bad thing. but when the article on sammi cheng wanting to "hound" and "haunt" andy hui to convert to christianity, it struck a raw nerve and awakened the dormant critic in me against evangelists. pardon my unhygenic verbiage but i have an irrepressible repulsion against evangelists and street-preachers.
i'm a firm believer that religion is a negotiated experience. that's how christianity come to be. that's how christian denominations come to be. and that's why the recent buddhist "fashion show" took place in japan recently. there's a reason why i'm a free-thinker and fuck all you who throw me the label of an atheist.
what makes one religion more true than another? what makes one interpretation of the bible more right than another? throw me some light... if you dare.
