Christian Atheist – We Are All Sinners In Need Of A Savior.

So, I don’t know what you do for a living or how you spend your time, but I am reasonably sure that you have spent some or a lot of your time around people.  Well, I have to ask you, have you ever been around someone that just won’t listen to you?  You know, the kind of person that assumes they are just a little better than everyone around them?  That is not a lot of fun, is . . .
