They think, “Jesus was cool. I like him, and I’m gonna try to be like him.” Kind of like their guiding light is what would Jesus do? But there isn’t a focus on identification, recruiting others, judging others based on their religion, fear of God, fear of punishment for sinning, respect for clergy as an authority, rituals, worship, etc. Basically, just the example of Jesus’ life.

    I met a group that called themselves ‘Jesus Freaks’, but they were just annoying trying to indocrinate people on music festivals.

        Ha, they weren’t a band though, just people that walked the crowd trying to convince people of jesus.

        I was a ruthless teenager questioning their beliefs until they got pulled away from me by a higher up.

        They somehow couldn’t answer why I would need jesus, when I’m already doing all the things they claim they only do because they found jesus.

        Today I’m different and don’t question people’s believes as long as they don’t start harming others in the name of their god.
