Blight Wrote:Lots of people think that believing only some things in a religion and leaving out the stuff they don't like that they are still what ever they choose to call themselves. Like Christians for example; lots of people call themselves Christians but then they publicly disagree with many of the beliefs held by Christians, meaning they aren?t Christians at all (note: I'm not calling all Christians hypocrites, just the ones that practice like above). You can't just rewrite the rules of a religion because they are inconvenient, because then you just destroyed it.
But wouldn't you like to believe in something whole heartedly and not something that you don't agree with, like back to your example of being a Christian, if it was altered then maybe that Christian could really be a Christian. Congress alters outdated laws so why not do the same with religion?
Keeping in mind I am, the same as you, unsure where I stand with my faith.
