Hi sakuraknight9274. I'm Mark Heger, the guy in the video. I wanted to tell you that Jesus is always standing there with open arms, ready for you to come running back to him. No matter what you've done or how far away you've gone, he still loves you. His love is unconditional and unchanging. If you have any questions or would just like to talk, please don't hesitate to message me. Thanks for your comment.

I am overwhelmed by the scene that he can manage to share what he doesn't have. I thought he is sad because he is living alone with a very simple life. But yet, he offered his time to share a little of himself. I am in tears, It feels good to have someone out there to hug you.

Dear Rainbow Defender, I feel awfully sad that your heart is filled with so much hatred. I am a single but very lonely woman who lives in Austin, TX. I have no friends, no family, no husband or child, especially no one for a contact for in case of a emergency. This campaign and God's words saved me from committing suicide. When you have no one in your life to call you, see how you're doing, much less someone to hold you and have not felt what love is, then and only then, you'll understand.

What's this about Christian proper gander? Any way it goes hugs without strings are great. I understand the resentment about Christians, we are hopefully coming out of an era in which the USA hid behind Jesus and worshiped greed. With that said not all Christians were greedy, and it was Bush that tainted it. Every one just needs to be free as long as they don't seek to harm others.

I almost enjoyed it until sparkheger announced it's Christian propaganda. Why do you imply we need Jesus? Why can't we just hug each other because we're humans?

I'm an Atheist, and I always love YOU (way more than Jesus). I will gladly hug you, reguardless of race, politics, or theologies (or lack there of).
