"What does this babbler want to say?" - Acts 17:18

Man quits Christianity after trying it for one week, citing persistence of personal problems

BABBLERS PRESS - It was "a rough week" for one local man who decided to give Christianity a try after chronic drinking of alcohol failed to solve his personal problems. He responded to the Sunday night altar call at the local church where he usually attends twice a year on Christmas and Easter. But this time he decided to show up mid-season. 

"I don't know what came over me," said the man who prefers to remain nameless because he's still somewhat embarrassed about the entire ordeal.. "Maybe I was still hung-over from the night before. But the Pastor preached a dandy of a message and I felt led to go forward. It felt really good at the time."

Upon waking up Monday morning, however, the man discovered that the feelings were already beginning to wane. "I still had to get up and go to work," he explained. "And my VISA card was still racked up and I had several other bills that needed to be paid." 

Furthermore, the man said, his pregnant girlfriend was still pregnant, his 2002 Pontiac Sunfire still needed new tires and the rent on his one bedroom basement apartment was still overdue. To make matters worse some of his friends and family weren't overly excited about his newfound faith. In fact, some of them thought he had lost his mind altogether. 

Around Friday afternoon he started to succumb to some of the temptations he had been battling since Monday morning. By Saturday evening, the man had decided that serving Christ just wasn't for him.
​

"It's just too hard," he said, "I mean, I tried it for a full week. Should it take five or six days to get your life straightened out? On TV people get their problems solved in an hour or two. What's up with that?"
