Can I seriously enjoy a simple song without having to be reminded why non-Christians think I'm a crazy bigot?
Although I don't practice the Eastern forms of meditation (I did once, but that's another story), I like listening to binural beats and meditative sounds/music because it helps my mind focus and relax before I pray or read some Scripture. Heck, I may even listen to it just to unwind after a stressful day. But it's hard to do either one if I see some person submitting comments like, "JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY MEDITATION IS JUST THE DEVIL MESSING WITH YOU", or "GOD LOVES YOU SO DO THE RIGHT THING AND DON'T GO TO HELL." ....You know what I'm talking about. And it's not just meditative videos either, it can be ANY video. It could be about a cute cat and a random spammer goes nuts.
So please, my brothers and sisters in Christ, just keep this in mind: if you want others to hear the good news, then don't do it on places like youtube. That, and actually study the Bible and your beliefs. And maybe instead of hiding behind a computer, you actually go out and preach it with words AND actions (via volunteering at a pregnancy center, working in a soup kitchen, etc). There is nothing wrong with writing apologetics or spiritual pieces, but spewing nonsense in a comments section isn't going to lead anyone to Christ. It only annoys them and gives people a false impression of Christianity and it's followers.
So yeah. Take a chill pill. I was once a youngster who did the same thing and it didn't get me or anyone else anywhere. Don't fall for the same stupidity that I did.
God bless, ya'll.
*EDIT 18 MAY 2013* Someone mentioned that along with the attempts of conversion, there are also spam comments like mine that go along the lines of, "Oh ehm gee guyz, you make mah religion look bad stahp it!". Just thought it was worth mentioning.
Comments are only open because I don't expect people to go angry insane over the contents. But if you do write something stupid, immature, unrelated, etc, then I WILL block your comment. Think before you press enter, my friends!
