There is a REASON I stayed away from this thread.
Beliefs are personal,and to answer the posted question YES I am Christian.
People have faiths based not only on how they were raised,but where they were born and the experiences in their life.
My question for MYSELF is NOT am I a good Christian,but...have I made a difference?
When I stand in judgment for my life...have I helped the world,mankind in general,family or friends in particular?
Isn't that more important than persecuting others for thinking differently than Christians?
Should we not lead by example,with love,patience,forgiveness and strength?
Strength that we will always reach out to those in need no matter their faith?
Just a thought,but the whole world uses the Christian calander , 2008 about to be 2009..ponder that a moment.
