Honest Answers needed from Christians? What if you were dosed with mind-altering drugs-without your knowledge nor consent-?

Question

When you finally found out about it- that this was done to covertly make you receptive to the Church's Doctrines:

1. Would you reject Christianity and all its Doctrines?

2. Would you reject only that one church, but go to another church, that taught the same Doctrines?

3. Would you go to another church, that also dosed you with mind-altering hypnotic drugs, but be selective in what Doctrines you accepted?

4. Would you believe that each and every church uses that method?

5. Have you got any idea of what I am talking about?

6. And do you believe that this is indeed the case?

I'd be mad at the person or people who dosed me, and if the church was responsible I'd leave that church.  I can't see how that would affect any other beliefs, except to get me to review those beliefs and what they were based upon again.

This is a silly question.  Liars tell the truth pretty often--that's how they get you to believe them.  If you believe that everything a liar told you is false, then you become even more misled than you were when you were believing everything he told you is true.  If a liar tells the truth, it is still the truth.

The holy Spirit convicts you of truth in Jesus Christ. Nobody can come to Christ unless the father allows him to

This all depends on whether it's true or not. That's like drugging someone to believed the earth is a sphere, and then they found out that they were drugged to believe such a thing. Well, the earth is a sphere, so I'd still believe it, but I'd be pretty ticked that someone drugged me.

Mind altering drugs....  Sleep deprivation.... Food deprivation.... These are things that define "cults".  People like to throw around the word "cult" to define any belief system they don't like or don't agree with, but this is what is really meant by that word.  To answer your question, I'd consult law enforcement and run to the closest Kingdom Hall for the truth.

I would certainly leave that particular sect.

I would not assume that all Christian sects did the same.

Since I already carefully examined my religious beliefs *before* joining any Christian sect, I would not question my beliefs.  I would, however, be much more careful in choosing a new sect to join.

I think ridiculous hypotheticals say far more about the one who proposes it than what you are trying to glean from Christians.
