I think one of the mistakes many non-religious people make is thinking that all Christians believe religion is the most important thing. Obviously there are a lot of Christians who do believe that. But religion is not what is important to me. God is important to me. I don't need the label of Christianity to know what I believe in. I don't go to church, and I absolutely hate that churches run like a government, trying to tell you what you can and can't do. It seems like the purpose of the church is not to spread the word of God, but to judge God's people and scare them into believing. That's not how I think that things should be. God is what is important in life, not religion. Religion is simply a means to categorize yourself and make it easier when someone asks "What do you believe in?" To me it is nothing more than that.
