However, as a child she found it confusing that there were so many versions of the Christian faith—Anglican, Episcopal, Assembly of God, Baptist, Lutheran, Catholic, Methodist, Presbyterian, and the list goes on. She often pondered why so many different versions of Christianity existed—how did people go about choosing one over the other.
When she grew up and moved away from the South, out into a world where, not only were there more versions of the Christian religion, but there were also many different types of religions other than Christianity—all over the world. This bewildered her even more. She told herself that she would take time to investigate them all—for she had to figure out—how could there be so many different truths.
She eventually came to discover answers to her questions while residing in the Washington D.C. area for over thirty years, where a multitude of diverse religions and faiths exist. After mingling among so many different faiths, she came to the conclusion, that if one decides to serve a deity or partake in religion, they should start by getting to know the Bible for their own enlightenment and not depend on someone else to tell them what it says. For it is no surprise why so many are lead astray when it comes to choosing a religion, and why thousands of people are fooled into joining cults that use religion as a lure.
She believes that it is because of these diversities among different faiths that modern civilization, though it has existed for thousands of years, and been given the aptitude and capacity of practical and common sense, as of yet, in all these thousands of years have not fully accomplished the commission to end hatred toward each other to the degree that there is abundant living and dignity for all.view less
