Thank you! Unfortunately, most of the stumbleupon reviews were negative and basically called me a liar. I appreciate the positive feedback

Wow. Such an amazing story. I just had to stumble and tweet it. Everyone should read this and take a moment to think about what the important thing in live truly are.

Those people might claim to be Christian, but their actions don’t indicate so. You were more Christlike than any of them. I sure hope that so called “church” isn’t anywhere near me.

Wow! As a person who’s life was changed by Jesus Christ, I am very disappointed in the reaction that the Church had to the blind man. As you are probably aware, the term Christian means “Christ-like”. That church should be ashamed to call themselves Christians. In the first four books of the New Testament, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, Jesus very clearly sets an example of how people should treat others. It’s unfortunate that many people who call themselves Christians ignore this example and have a higher regard for personal possessions than people. I think your actions were more Christ-like than the actions of the church members. You have a powerful gift to be able to reach out to people unconditionally. If you haven’t yet, I would recommend reading the first four books of the New Testament. Whether or not you’re reading it from a spiritual point of view, it contains a powerful message.

So I worked extra hard yesterday to go “Peace Globing” today. I got sidetracked…i was pulled into this story. I’m touched. And sad.

So what’s happened since May regarding your relationship with your “friend”?

This is just pitiful. It’s people like this that make my life as a Christian more difficult. But I’ll persevere. It’s what I’m asked to do by my God.

[...] Somebody gets it Wednesday, May 28th, 2008 | Uncategorized Sometimes I’ll come across a link that I just have to share. This one is a blog from someone who actually “gets it” more than most Christians do. (And he isn’t one.) It appears some religious folks were having a cookout and then Jesus showed up, but he showed up more in the blogger’s actions than in the church people. Intrigued yet? Take a look. [...]

Read your essay with interest. Did you not ask the old man what his religion was or did he believe in the concept of God or was there someone who controlled his life ? Is there any book i.e autobiography written by a born blind person so that one could know their feelings and perhaps be of help.

Just wanted to let you know that you werre the closest thing to Christ that day. I am a Pentecostal Pastor and your actions were very Christian although you may not be. The Church group ought to be ashamed of themselves. My heart broke at their attitudes and how they give Christianity a bad name. I would love to see you accept Christ as your savior…. you 2 really have a lot in common.

Wishing you well. sca
