What religion are you?

Why should I listen to you?

because you're encouraging me to listen to you and i answered your question. i'm just debating you....i don't think i've gone personal yet, have? i'm simply just debating you on the point of theology and the current beliefs in a deity.

Im undefeated in bare knuckle boxing. we can have a go at that but im not travelling over the other side of the atlantic to beat up an internet geek who's mum will probably just tell me is not in and she'll probably give me a sob story about you being bullied in school and how it has ended in you writing cheques that you cant cash. So im afraid that in the unlikely event that your for real, youll need to travel over here.

I'm a christian. I don't judge others based on their religion or lack there of. Unlike some posters in this thread and in the other one.

You seem to be doing a good job of judging people right now, Mrs Christian. Dont shove your views down my throat and we will all get along just dandy.

How am I judging people? I'm just reading what you and a couple other posters wrote. Did someone kidnap you so they could take your place and right rude messages under your log in name? I said that I was a christian I don't base my judgments about people based on their religion or lack there of. I'm sorry that such a practice is offensive to you. Oh and it's Ms. Christian to you.

Judge not, lest ye be judged.

hey! Which finger are you shaking at me?

The middle one. Just kidding.

Okay, this is a general warning that there are no personal attacks allowed. Read it for yourself in the TOS again if you doubt what I'm saying. It's not cool to cut other people down for what they believe.

I dunno ....I was muslims Shiaa ...but I am not anymore .....there s too violence and anti-science facts in Islam ....and the bible didn't convince me well too.
So I think I believe in God ....but in the texts of the religions who are written by men.

Scientologist.

I would encourage you to obtain a good work on the historical, acheological accuracy of the Bible and also a book on Texual Criticism and the Bible. (the latter even more convincing than the former!) These are essential to anyone who will not accept the Bible just because Christains and Jews say that it's true. After all, Buddists, Muslims and many others claim that their writings are divine truth also. Check it out thoroughly before you commit to an opinion or decision on such an important matter.

I'm a Celt.

ah, so a pagan, then, presumably. that's what the celts were.

I am a strict atheist. The idea of a creator is unintelligle to me, like a squared-circle. I can believe in the possibility of God existing inside of someone, as a source of their hopes and fears, to calm their nerves and for comfort, all humans have something like that inside of them. But God existing as some type of entity, watching and controlling the world, makes absolutely no sense to me.

However, I do wish sometimes that I could believe, there is no doubt comfort and enrichment to be experienced in a truly religious lifestyle, not one based on fear or superstition. I also tend to like christians. The nice ones, the ones who don't try to convert your beliefs or judge you. My aunt and uncle run a church, but not once have they ever tried to persuade me to go, and I appreciate that.

I am all for christianity as a way of life, I just don't agree when they band together to make a movement based on religion. Compare it to farming, farmers have a way of life that doesn't bother anyone, are good to their neighbors, good for the community, etc. But when they band together, like to lobby for farming subsidies, then they begin to try to justify decisions for all based on their way of life, not reason or the wellfare of all.
