What is your Religion?

[jeremy]

I grew up baptist, but really don't practice it to much.

Mainly cause I ain't done sinning for my fellow man yet...

 

[mudwater]

I was raised in a conservative "New Amish" Church. Was a member but now do not attend. Learned that God was much larger than any Denomination!

Anabaptists aren't related to Baptists

 

[haldir]

Raised in and saved in a Southern Baptist Church in Kokomo. I am now a member of the Presbyterians. I must admit though that I still tend to be a bit more fundamentalist than my Presbyterian fellows. Although in keeping with the spirit of my Lord's first miracle I don't seen anything wrong with a drink from time to time.

Yep, Jesus made wine... doesn't make a lick of sense that it would be "wrong" for us to enjoy some too. (gluttony aside of course)

You make it sound as if the sin list is not a checklist?!

Christian, raised in Army Chapels, so pretty much non-denominational.

We teach the bible, but don't actively attend a church.

born, raised, and still a baptist.

i grew up in a couple pretty conservative baptist churches. one preached that only the KJV Bible was the right one to preach/read from. music was always hymn, piano, and organ. went to church sunday morning, sun night, and weds night. heck, when you wore jeans on a sunday night, you'd think you'd killed someone from some reactions!!

once i got out of high school i realized that it wasn't the place for me...so i found a church where their philosophy was that we will adhere strictly to the 'Thou Shalts' of the Bible (10 Commandments), and everything else is preference...music type, clothes, version of the Bible, etc were all preference issues...even how many services you have in a week! TOTALLY different from what i was raised, but i knew right away that this was where i needed to be!

I've also read where even this is debated. Was it alcoholic or just grape juice? I don't care one way or another, but you can google links.

Yeah, non alcoholic wine always goes over big at wedding receptions.

Haldir,
There's a heck of a difference between PCA (me, in spirit, anyway) and Presbyterian USA.

I'm surprised someone didn't say Scientologist or what's that thing Madonna's doing now?

I can't say that on here they'll ban me for sure for that...

None of the above. I just try to help people when I can, treat others the way I would like to be, and try to be as honest as possible without trampling on someone else's feelings. I guess kinda like karma. Do good things and good things will happen to you
