I do agree that this isn't the kind of question one should ask people on a forum such as this, because then you get people douching up the thread with bad Jesus jokes and snarky, sarcastic remarks that're uncalled for when all that is needed is a simple yes or no

Well then all we'd need is a graph and no posts, which is kind of unimportant when most people want to read others' quick reasoning. But as far as the sarcastic remarks and such go, I'm one to believe christians are at fault through making a mockery of the Christ figure by making him a fad-- bumper stickers, posters, funny statues, sappy music, tv show/movie cameos, etc. What else could one expect to happen?

I am... But I don't think that this should be the kind of question to be asking people...

I believe there's a God, I just don't know which one is the right one. However, I do agree that this isn't the kind of question one should ask people on a forum such as this, because then you get people douching up the thread with bad Jesus jokes and snarky, sarcastic remarks that're uncalled for when all that is needed is a simple yes or no(which as relates to the yes or no, most, except for a couple, did give).

What kind of questions should be asked here?  Why isn't this one of them?

Your religious beliefs are no more deserving of respect than your political beliefs, what your favorite sports team is, which shirts you think look cool, or which shoes you think are the best.  Your religious beliefs SHOULD be questioned and subject to scrutiny, just as every single other thing in your life is.

The mentality that it's bad to criticize religious beliefs, make jokes about religious beliefs, and so on is plain nonsense and it's depressing that our culture has allowed religion to become largely immune to challenge and criticism.  This mentality promotes the idea that it's fine to ignore perfectly valid science and research and instead believe in some ridiculous superstitions made up by people who would be impressed with the invention of a wheel barrow.  This mentality builds up a wall/shield for religious fanatics to hide behind.  It is a horrible mentality that will never promote the progression of society.

YES I DO :) but it's not a religion to me, it's a relationship that I have with God. Like when you talk to yourself, you might be talking to yourself, but maybe your really talking to God because you know he's listening and won't judge you.  :thumbsup:

Maybe you're really just talking to yourself.  And that's fine.  When you start answering yourself, make a doctor's appointment though.

Am I A Christian?
As I have been in Christian ministry for quite some time and studied the bible from many angles and areas. I would have to say that most consider me not the todays christian. The problem with christianity is christians themselves. I have rebuked many pastures by misleading his/her church,and questioned many practises of todays christian movements. Some have said I am demonized for questioning anything,yet it is written to question all things. So i will say i do believe in Father God and the Great Son Jesus Christ,but beleiving in the christian movements of most modern chruches and secs,i am not a christian in their eyes.

well that's kinda sad being mocked and considered demonized for trying to figure out the bible and Gods wondrous creation. i totally agree with you i question a lot of stuff in the bible not to say i'm not a christian but the bible is just one of thoughs things you will never fully understand so you must keep questioning it. i say keep up the good work. all though you know there is a good and bad way to question things, such as assumptions is not the correct way to question also taking information from a unreliable source and not looking into or researching it is definitely not the right way to question things. i say good job to thoughs people who question just make sure your doing it right come to conclusions your self and you dont need to prove anything to anyone if you really do believe in something
hey im mike

sorry I'm not christian... I'm catholic... but actually I'm not fan of many things happens in Vatican... we are only human and catholic people like to make Gods to every pope we had...  :bs:  I love God, Jesus, but I think I have other point of view different than other people that can hear me talking and they probably will throw holy water to me  :angel11: ahahhaa...

Would you rather go to heaven and be with God or believe that there is no God and your soul rots in the ground?
