Not sure what you would classify my "religion" as? - November 19th 2009, 02:56 AM

Soooo...

In advance, to any christians, or others that I may offend. I'm sorry. It's just my views. I don't mean to judge your God or anything like that. Since I will admit I don't pay attention in church or read the bible, so my insight may not be accurate. So just, sorry if I do.

Quick background:
  • My entire family is hardcore christian.
  • All my friends except my best friends are christians.
  • I grew up going to church and sunday school and loving it.
  • Eventually thought I was being forced into a religion, and questioned everything so eventually rebelled against it.
  • Because I am into vampires, and tend to wear black, my parents sometimes call me "the anti christ" "the devils spawn" but jokingly. Yet sometimes I wonder if they arn't.
Now what I believe/how I am:
  • I believe there is a "God", just not sure who or what it is. So mostly I believe there is a higher power.
  • If God is God and their is a higher power, I just chose not to go with it and worship it.
  • I don't really find the bible false, but I don't exactly read it and take it all in.
  • I tend to get easily annoyed when people seem to pressure their religion onto me.
  • I think there has to be another explaination for everything. Like all the creation theories.
  • I find some things wrong about the christian "God". Like, is he sexist? He never got married, and most of the higher powers in heaven are men. Also women have babies, and go through all the reproductive pain and all that. Also in the old testiment it is mentioned that the wife should honor her husband? Nothing about the husband honoring his wife. I found that ehhh. Then...with the gay and bi sexual stand point. I have heard that God is not so happy about all that. Since in the bible it states a man will marry a woman or something. Just little things like that bother me.
SO! Question time!

1. Just your opinion. What do you think my religion is? If I had to label it. Agnostic? Atheist? Christian? Or just my own thing?
I got by Agnostic, but people keep telling me i'm something else.
2. If there is the christian "God" and I still believe the bible and he died for our sins and all that stuff, but just don't worship him. Am I going to "hell"?

Anyway, I know that was kinda long.

But any opinions or responses are appreciated. =)


I'll do whatever it takes to be the mistake you can't live without.
