or is there a gray area?

for example, did everything in the Bible really happen exactly as stated? Is the Bible complete truth, or stories intended to teach a lesson?

I don't believe in anything with 100% certainty, and those who do are a scary bunch.

Note from friend hovering over shoulder-
I feel fairly confident in my faith, as I always recognize that my beliefs can change without making me some sort of evil person.
OK, now the real me.
At first i wasn't sure what to believe. I mean my family has always raised me Catholic but i never felt the same way. So I am not Catholic anymore. It's fair to say, in my opinion, that there will always be a "gray area" when it comes to religion. I've always been a skeptic.
added later due to your note:
well the Bible was written may years later after Jesus had died, about 35-85 years after wards. Most of what is written was pasted through word of mouth (there was no ther way). So it's really up to the person who reads and believes to interpret the Bible as he or she wishes.

I don't believe in religion. I have Jesus living inside of me, but if u force me for an answer I'll tell u that I'm a christian. And Yes, I do believe in christianity 100% because they stand on the bible. The bible tells me I have authority over demons, I do have it. No demons can stand against me when I say the name of Jesus. It tells me no weapon form against me shall prosper, and here I am still alive when my enemies are trying to end my life. I'm still standing tall.

100%. If I didn't I would be looking for another religion. I do think there are religions out there with much truth, but may be missing something. If there is a God, I think he wouldn't set up churches with only part truths, or even multiple religions with conflicting doctrines or teachings. This would make God out to be a God of confusion and one who decieves mankind. And I just can't believe that about God.

I would say there is gray only because I prefer to question my faith rather than just accept every part of it blindly. But it is still the faith I choose.

I believe in my deities 100%.
My religion is simply the methods I use to worship them.

99.9% I have to agree with some parts of the bible, like those that claim to know everything are complete fools.
Other than that, there are no gods and all prophets are false.
