Religion What is your take on religion? Do you base your thoughts in life according to your religion? Do you feel that religion should be kept out of Government and Politics?

It's kind of like saying you are Catholic, but practice birth control and get divorced.
I don't recall Jesus ever saying you had to follow a given religion in order to follow him.

Personally, I feel all organized religions are crocks, and have long since given up the real teachings of Jesus.

And I really couldn't care less what you define it as. I am a Christian.

This post actually answers my question. You are not a part of any religion that subscribes to the entire Bible. You are calling yourself a Christian, but since you are not part of any organized faith, you have your own definition of what a Christian is.

That's OK. I have no problem with that.
