I would like to fit into a category. But, I'm having trouble finding one. Not that it maters so much at this site, because everyone here is accepting of everyone that plays nice.

Share Your Hell Fire Moment

I worked & lived at a Rescue Mission for 1 1/2 years. We had different guest pastors that gave 2 services each day. During that time I attended over 1000 services.
Each month there was one Guest pastor that preached on Hell, Brimstone & Damnation. The first time I heard him I was turned off and confused. (I have intellectual problems with a literal Hell.)

In Pastor Dan's Thu Mar 13, 2008 coffee hour he invited us to give him some advise about building an online progressive faith community. I don't have advise, but I have a lot of thoughts & ideas that concern me. First of all, what is the price we pay for being a member of this community?
My personal geis or concern as been to give back to the various communities around me. (I learned of geis here on this site from Alexandra Lynch, and I hope I'm using it correctly)
