Redefine
Right now, I'm reading this book called Life of Pi.
Apparently, it's supposed to make you believe in God, and though I already do, I wondered what kind of book would be so life-changing as to turn an atheist into a believer..
I started reading, and got a bit concerned. The man in the book claims to be a Hindu, Muslim, and a Christian, which can't happen. Basically, what he says is that Hindus have an extraordinary capacity for love, Muslims see God in everything, and Christians are incredibly devoted to God.
I got to thinking about this, because in my opinion, all these qualities are true for Christians. Christianity is supposed to be based on love. In every circumstance, good or bad, we are supposed to look to God and find Him in the situation. And obviously, we're supposed to be devoted Christ-followers. It's too bad that all we are known for is, pretty much, the law portion of faith. Maybe we should change that..
