Or if you were born in another continent would you still be a Christian?

More than likely you'd be the religion of your parents. That is simple logic.

As in most countries other than the United States , religion isn't a freedom granted to many, I don't see the point in your question.
In most Middle East countries the fact that I was born a female would limit my choices on many levels , my religion being just one.
If you are never exposed to various religions how do you choose?
With free will and choice - I choose to be a Christian.

There's no way of knowing that but people are being converted by the thousands everyday in countries around the world even from their own religions to Christianity. Talk to any missionary if you can get ahold of one and they will tell you of the success they have had.

thats an interesting question since it really asks the viewer is religion learned or part of one's destiny? The overwhelming evidence suggest that many people depart from their religion of birth-Would you be agnostic if your parents were Christians?
At judgement this is not an excuse.

In my opinion, I think that whatever your parents beleive in (as in religion) then that is what your religion will be growing up. As young kids we will usually follow our parents footsteps. My religion is the same as my parents and if they had a different religion, then I would probably be that. :D

That is a tough one. I would think that a high percentage of adults are the same religion as their parents or that of their spouse's parents.

Hard to say. I really did not have a religious upbringing, which was common where I grew up.
I'm became a Christian as an adult.

If they're Christians and their parents were Muslim their parents would have beheaded them already.

Yes. Christianity is not genetic.

Well, my family is Catholic and I'm Buddhist, so I guess it could go either way.
