You're either Christian, not religious or something else? What about: Jewish, Hindu, Muslim, Buddist. Perhaps someone needs a little diversity training. +1. This thread is gonna get ugly soon, in large part because it ignores the religious preferences of two thirds of the world's population. Way to go.  Technically you could just answer other, then state waht you in a post. I don't see why saying other is a bad thing. do you like milk? orange juice? Other? That does not make it a bad poll. _________________ Wil's excellent description of me. wilsmith wrote: You're the Anti-Censorship+Topless Twitpic Parodying+Youth Group Video Directing guy that's a champion for the 1st amendment, Videogames as Art, and unrepentant file sharing...

I don't actively practice any religion. I did grow up attending a Methodist church, but stopped attending because the idea of getting up so early on a Sunday after spending all day Saturday rehearsing at my ballet school was not too appeal. But I do feel that I am very spiritual. _________________ car.o.lyn And I swear in that moment we were infinite BLOG l FLICKR |

I have had some major let-downs on religion of late. I would love to trust in it(God) and all, but so many things seem to crush it. _________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7MdJPSqtCw |

Religion is about doing things to apease your god. That is not what Christianity is. Christianity is a relationship. _________________ Wil's excellent description of me. wilsmith wrote: You're the Anti-Censorship+Topless Twitpic Parodying+Youth Group Video Directing guy that's a champion for the 1st amendment, Videogames as Art, and unrepentant file sharing...

Quote: Christianity is a relationship. very true. I'm not sure what it is I believe, but I am very confident that there is an afterlife. Most people don't believe in it because they follow the horrible logic of "I only believe in what I see"

I admire people who can believe in a god (or many gods) but I personally can't. |

I don't see why saying other is a bad thing. do you like milk? orange juice? Other? That does not make it a bad poll. So you'd be okay with a post that offers the options of Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, animism, nonreligious, and other? This isn't a poll about breakfast beverages. Lumping several major and very distinct religions together under a miscellaneous heading is a pretty ignorant thing to do in a thread dedicated to religion. It demonstrates a very clear bias when the only specific options are Christianity and atheism. That does make it a bad poll. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

Wow, my words exactly. I too am a youth leader, and play guitar for my church. _________________ "I should have listened to my friends" www.myspace.com/georgeproject www.purevolume.com/jesusworshiper |

That is really all I have to say. I will also say that Agnosticism and Atheism don't really belong together...you know...at all. Agnostics aren't confirming or denying, while Atheists choose to embrace the cruel thorns of their logically thought out beliefs with sadistic glee. Joking.  _________________ Audioscrobbler Now
