Quote
A Christian believes that the man Jesus Christ of Nazareth was the embodiment of the Creator of the Universe, who was born of immaculate conception, who was executed in gruesome fashion by being litterally nailed to a cross-shaped wooden structure and allowed to slowly die of exposure, whose death was allowed by the Creator of the Universe as an absolution of mankind's sins, and who, after being pronounced dead, appeared alive to his followers and walked the earth for a time before arising to heaven. Further, a Christian believes that the Creator of the Universe intends for us to emulate Jesus Christ in our everyday life by our own free will.


And then they worship the cross. If I died that way, I wouldn't want to see one again. That's just one of those things that make me stop and ask what they are thinking.

While being a Christian is quite specific on one level, it leaves plenty of room to fuck around on another. For example, fundies are hardcore bible wankers and only boot the bare-bones system while Catholics have all sorts of fancy upgrades and patches they've installed over the years (bug fixes mostly, but I think planned obsolescence will win out soon). They're both Christians (don't tell the fundie that), but practice and believe many things differently.

The add-ons don't count. None of that other stuff makes Christians Christian. What makes Christians Christian is the belief in the essential nature of Jesus Christ and the key events of his life, death, resurrection, ascention and eventual return. If you do not believe that Christ is the Son of God, you are not a Christian. If you do not believe that Christ was a real person who lived and breathed on this planet, then you are not a Christian. If you do not believe that Christ sacrificed himself for mankind, then you are not a Christian. If you do not believe that Christ arose from the dead (never mind the other miracles), then you are not a Christian. If you do not believe that Christ ascended to heaven, or that he will some day be back, then you are not a Christian. Everything else is flavorings. You can't rightly wear an "Intel Inside" sticker if your processor is a goddam AMD.

You have to prove you are a flaming gay to get in. Just send Chris a picture of yourself at a Pride parade (preferably in some sort of costume).

That's how I got access.

I read that as "touch".

Which just goes to show you, I guess!
