Christianity is Being Christ-like; no strings attached by man. That is why I despise it when people ask “What type of Christian are you?”.
Jesus HATED religion, that is why he despised the Saducees and the Pharisees: they were dominated by MAN-MADE and controlled rules and laws.
That is why Catholicism is quite a false faith; Catholicism is an example of religion, Christianity is not. There is no advocation of celibate priests, confessionals, nuns or connonisation of saints. There are no Anglicans, Protestants, no mention of Neo-Christianity or the ridiculous ‘New Church’. Paedophile Priest are result of religion. Celibacy is a gift of the Holy Spirit, but Catholicism states that priests are to be celibate. It is a gift to have sexual supression, but these priests are naturally supressing themselves, leading to dangerously horrid sexual urges.

There is no mention of what people call ‘bible bashing,’ true Christians are not suppposed to forcibly indent our beliefs upon non-belivers. That is a religious doing.

Please do not mix religion and Catholicism with Christianity and please, what say you?

Never heard of him but Jim Wallace sounds like yet another Christian fundamentalist who, like their Muslim counterparts, seem determined to take us down the road of global religious confrontation.

I have nothing against religion except when it interferes with my life. I don’t mind the fact that despite being extremely wealthy, the major Christian churches pay no tax. I’m a little worried when our State and Federal Governments underwrite the Christian World Youth Day (or week) with more than $100 million of taxpayer dollars–without consulting the wider electorate about it. But I’m livid about religion trying to impose its set of values on an unwilling public. The notion that in order to be a good person you must be religious is both laughable and insulting. Some of those victims of pedophile priests would doubtless agree.

It’s the 21st century. Time for some of these bible bashers to grow up.
