00:00:00.000 I think lots of people are there or start there and find themselves there at some point.
00:00:08.520 You are in fact a fence sitter, that is honest, but I think a lot of people are sometimes.
00:00:16.400 The defining thing about sitting on the fence though is how long you spend there.
00:00:22.220 We all have moments of indecision where we consider our options and I suppose for that
00:00:27.120 period of time we all sit on the fence, but it's having the initiative to get off the fence
00:00:37.340 that really counts. And sometimes that takes a moment to weigh your options and to make a wise
00:00:44.360 decision. I respect that. What I would say that's unfortunate, while you are sitting on the fence,
00:00:53.040 you get the worst of both worlds you don't get the good things from christianity and you don't
00:00:59.360 get the blessings of ausentrum you get kind of the negative side of both feeling
00:01:09.280 inadequate or impious or not whatever you feel you feel that towards both conceptions of divinity
00:01:19.780 and it's kind of the the worst place to be in um so you know i'm clearly biased but i encourage you
00:01:28.020 to get off the fence and get on the team we would love to have you join the astute folk assembly
00:01:34.740 but any of our go-through i would be happy to talk you through that or answer any questions
00:01:39.140 you might have to the best of our ability and try to clear anything up that you may want
00:01:44.180 you're right that christianity is a socially easier option what's hard for
00:01:54.900 it's hard for people especially people of maturity is when you know when you know the truth you can't
00:02:04.560 you're responsible for that knowledge you can't unknow it you can't pretend it's something
00:02:11.940 different once you know that christianity is not right then you're going to know that the longer
00:02:19.760 you continue to stay in it once you know that also true is the right way to go then every moment you
00:02:27.780 spend not doing that you feel a certain certain amount of regret about because once you know the
00:02:36.480 truth, you're morally responsible to act on the truth that you know. So I would encourage you
00:02:46.640 to have courage and act boldly when you know, once you know that something's right.
