I used to think Christianity was ridiculous. I also used to make fun of Christians all the time like so many in this thread. So it is really interesting to be on the other side for me. And helps me not take anything personally at all.
The only thing that I really like to encourage people to do is at least seek the truth as cliche' as that may sound. Don't assume you know everything...especially about Christianity just because you were brought up in the West or another predominantly Christian nation. It comes easy here, yes. It's become trite because you can't even flip on the television without seeing some "Christian" preacher. The message is everywhere. The problem is it's often times watered down, or completely destroyed by the people with the loudest voices. And the worst part is this is what becomes peoples view of Christianity. In the "information age" it seems we all go to resources about resources...and not the actual source itself. We assume that the biased information we are getting is actually accurate, when more often then not, it's actually a total distortion. That is to say, you might have animosity or biased towards something you don't truly know much about. And yes, I like to think I heed my own advice.
