Question 8
QUESTION: When you were still, how do I say this, “under the influence†of faith, what was your opinion of those who didn’t believe? I oftentimes wonder just what most evangelicals actually think. I find it tough to believe that most of them are as radical as the loudest few are, and so I wonder. -Snurp
ANSWER: It’s a mixture of feelings really. On one hand, I usually kept my distance from nonbelievers unless I was delivering “the good news†to them. It’s almost as if I was afraid they would be a negative influence on me, or maybe a little “sin†would rub off. I would usually pray for those who I know did not believe, and felt remorse if someone died without “Jesus in their heartâ€. –deletedsoul

Do you think such ‘xenophobia’ is prevalent in the faithful?
In your opinion, does the faith in something create partisanism and thus create opposing camps mentality?
