Where I am at:
1. I am a Sabbatarian -
2. I am a vegetarian - just because I have never eaten meat and it does not appeal to me - -
3. I believe in the SDA version of state of the dead - it makes sense to me but - honestly it does not matter to me.
4. I do not believe in EGW -
5. I hold no animosity toward SDA's specifically - I feel that they really have missed the target corporately.
6. I am a recovering legalist.
7. I love Jesus and nothing would disappoint me more than to get to heaven and find that my family was not there and a whole bunch of my
friends.
8. I would not spend 40 years (a short time) here on this earth with a mean vindictive arbitrary woman - why on earth would I want to spend eternity with an all powerful, omnipotent, all seeing mean vindictive arbitrary God? My view of God/Jesus is that they are the opposite of what we make of them frequently -

To be honest - it has taken me a couple of years to get to the point where I realize that Club Adventist is toxic to me - but like squashing a bug - it is yet fascinating and I have to "watch".

I am definitely a "cultural Adventist" - I am so much so that I will have great difficulty in becoming anything else.

Well - now - do I think that it will do me good to join a bunch of other recovering SDA? <grin> - possibly - maybe not - maybe they would not want me either <grin>. My other worry is that I do not want to become a bitter, sour person whose only goal in life is to shoot at others - I really feel sorry for the places where SDA's have perverted the message/Gospel/Christ's love - but they end up with the poor image of God....

Well - enough introduction - oh - and you can call me Bill.
