What RELIGION are YOU?

[kalinski]

Atheist - "God delusion" all the way

Those options reveal an almost unbelievable ignorance of Christianity in Britain.

Two options only? Anglican and Catholic?

What about the three million PRACTISING Christians in the UK who are neither of these? There are more practising Presbyterians, Methodists and Baptists in Britain than there are regular attenders at Anglican churches. To say nothing of the independent and pentecostal churches.

Thanks, you've posted word for word what I was thinking.

I see that once again it is the atheists who want to cause trouble. Funny thing is, so many of them seem to think it is religion that causes the trouble. I think we can see from NSC that this is not the case.

Hang on, that's a bit of a sweeping statement, as an Atheist I could care less about any religion and it's agenda as long as it's not bothering me. I think, using straight logic, that believing in any form of higher authority based on nothing more than myth and superstition (which from what I can see all religions are) I'll consider it rubbish.

However, there are a some positives, a lot of people who have empty lives find great solace in their religion. It's only when they decide to kill people who take the piss out of them that it bothers me.

I'm with Frank on this one. I'm athiest, but I used to attend Catholic Mass with the ex just to keep the peace. Although the English speaking version was at 8:30 on a Sunday morning which was a bit of a struggle.

It also gave me a chance to scrub up and look dapper on a Sunday.

Only if I can call my Teddy "Mohamed the second".

I used to go to church so I could sing, the religious stuff wasn't my thing.

I'm completely atheist now

Quite. I'm an atheist now, thank god. But I was brought up a Protestant and certainly no Anglican.

And what about the different versions of Islam then, there are at least two faiths there?

Actually I think there should only be one option to cover the Jews, the Christians and Muslims, seeing as how they all worship the same God.

How DARE you put the chosen people in the same group as bunch of filthy goys.

That's the thing .... if there were no faiths to separate us and to fight over we'd all get along much much better.

Religion has a lot to answer for.

Where's Mormon?

I hate it when people comment like that.It's never going to happen.Check out your history

 

[Withdean and I]

what sort of a poll is this
one that doesn't really understand what it is talking about thats what it is.

to ask 'what religion are you?' anglican or catholic is just mad. anglicans and catholics are really all one as we believe in the same thing.

the actual vote should have been 'christian' which is what we all are under those two banners.

and by the way, religious, is not something that most christians that truly 'get god' would admit to being. religion is about buildings, rules and 'smells and bells' but really following Jesus is about loving others as yourself etc.

It brings true meaning and purpose to all of our lives.

Over and out,

Actually it's happened quite often, usually under Islamic rulers.

50% atheists? I bet not many messageboards can boast that.

 

[NMH]

I don't believe in atheists.
