I was once, a long time ago. I left it behind for personal reasons; I'm not here to debunk anyone else's faith, as much as I enjoy it :lol:

I'm not sure. I've been going to a church lately, but I'm confused. I think I'll always be confused. :roll:

I couldn't vote.

I'm a Christian. Although I haven't been so for very long (I had my confirmation only 1 year ago)

I must admit, I do find the social aspect of faith difficult. I'm ok with the worship bit. I understand the philosophical stuff. I enjoy the ritual. I'm just not very good at the coffee afterward; Making social chit-chat with other church goers.

I was raised Jehovah's Witness until I was 12. Around 19, I went back to studying with them & my sister became one officially.. I have since had problems with accepting the religion. It'd be a lie to say whether it's the 'truth' or not, I don't know. Don't see anyway I could know the truth for sure, unless God chose to show me. But I always will believe in God, a creator that is who created everything.. beyond that, nothing is ever concrete enough for me I guess, just one side's word vs the other. But I do respect those who are devout to a religion & it can be very good I assume for an AS person in that church's usually teach their members to be loving & accepting of everyone. Yes I know sometimes that doesn't play out, but the overall message in the Bible 'is' one of Love, which I totally agree with.

I celebrate all the Christian holidays, but my beliefs are my own.

I am Messianic, which is a mixture between Christianity and Judaism. I believe in Jesus but I celebrate Jewish holidays and keep Jewish dietary laws and sabbath, but all in the name of Jesus. I am also doubting trinity doctrine and sometimes I suspect the possibility taht Jesus is the Messiah but not god. Nevertheless, I strongly DO believe he is the messiah so in that sense I am christian.

Not really. My friend once tried to push me into the path of Christianity, but I'm just not into it. I do share some beliefs of Liberal Christianity though.

I consider myself to be Christian. I just can't be bothered to sit still in a church, for three hours.

I'm a... what do they call it... semi-Christian or something?

I believe in God, Jesus and all that jazz but I'll have 10 beers if I like and I'm not saving myself for marriage(too late).

I think the Bible should be taken with a pinch of salt, but that's just me. I know some christians are very serious about living "properly". I am content as long as I am nice to others and not being an ass and as long as I can do my best to make the world a better place for my friends, family and everyone else.

So If I drink or have sex, well, there are wars in this world y'know? I think God'd rather cry for that than my "sins".

My two cents
