Novelist Anne Rice ditches Christianity for Christ

Novelist Anne Rice says she's quit being a Christian but hanging on to Christ. She's just fed up with his followers.

The author, whose vampire books were huge sellers long before Twilight and whose return to her childhood Catholicism dominated her more recent works, posted a series of comments on Facebook(confirmed by her publisher as authentic, according to Associated Press).

For those who care, and I understand if you don't: Today I quit being a Christian. I'm out. I remain committed to Christ as always but not to being "Christian" or to being part of Christianity. It's simply impossible for me to "belong" to this quarrelsome, hostile, disputatious, and deservedly infamous group. For ten years, I've tried. I've failed. I'm an outsider. My conscience will allow nothing else.

The mother of openly gay novelist Christopher Rice goes on to say:

I refuse to be anti-gay. I refuse to be anti-feminist. I refuse to be anti-artificial birth control. I refuse to be anti-Democrat. I refuse to be anti-secular humanism. I refuse to be anti-science. I refuse to be anti-life. In the name of Christ, I quit Christianity and being Christian. Amen.

How can you hang on to Christ and not be a Christian?

How can you be Christian and be a secular humanist? I thought the idea of secular humanism was that there was no God and that the best we can do is to all live in harmony during our short lives.

This woman is a walking talking contradiction!

Chris.

And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

Ah....for the love of tiddles!  giggle

I often hear the same rhetoric that Rice states and when I do I remember theses words of Jesus:

Matthew 7:14
7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
