What is your Christian affiliation?

Question

You may not be a member of any denomination, but if you are actually a practicing Christian, I know enough you should be attending church services to be following your doctrine. I have requested Christians to state an affiliation. I can tune into your views. But if you fail to state a denomination, I am going to consider you Roman Catholic as it is the largest church in Christianity, though debatably the oldest with the Armenian, Alexanderian and Antioch bishops. And everything from there will be considered Catholic doctrine. Deviate from it I will identify you as an apostate and perhaps heretic.

Glad to see Catholics are proud to identify. The sufi Muslim also (got to ask, aligned toward sufi or sunni?). To the one upset about being omitted, sorry and welcome. Now, I'm definitely going to have to familiarize on your faith. The ones that don't align with a denomination apparently are making one of their own. Okay too, but should be stated. My problem though was that when someone simply says they're Christian, they imply they represent all. And they do not. And yes, I left out faths like Copts and others. Just not very present in the US. Hopefully, through stiring things up, we can get a little more understanding between the religions and divisions.

Well another failed attempt. Great people responded. But my target was to get a few who like to attack other religions and denominations to identify themself. They appear to take the stand of representing all Christians and I know that is not so. I would like to think I am at least trying to get some understanding though between religions.
Maybe an athiest referee?

Might be suprised how much I identify with beliefs. Not a bad answer here. The too that might think me arrogant, I was. Intended to stir up a few Christians that express hate of others. And I apologize for using Roman Catholic. I did so, because I pretty well knew they would not care for that identity. As to AWANA, I'm familiar with that, "Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed." A criticism of Catholics. You need to speak out more here. I admire your beliefs and especially tolerance.

3 Armenians. I'm going to have to study up. I know of it, a small bit of the early history, but literally nothing of beliefs and practices. Sorry again for blowing steam. I was trying to get a small few unidentified people that seem to hate all other religions and a lot of denominations to identify themselves.

Answer 1

roman catholic and proud of it!

Answer 2

You certainly seem to ruffle feathers, my friend. Could this be a self-stimulation tactic? I'm laughing as I ask this.

As for myself....I don't claim to be any denomination other than a child of God. I believe that rights right, and wrong is no where. I believe that you should treat others as you want to be treated. I believe that no one has the right to stand in judgement of another. I believe in fighting for the underdog, and helping those that cannot help themselves. I believe that each person can detect the real difference between right and wrong, but that is it up to that person to make the choice.

I do go to church, a small church with a country atmosphere and a front porch attitude. I do pray., for everyone, including those less fortunate than me, as well as those that would rise up against me. I read lots of different materials about spiritualism and religion, up to and including the bible, because I have a thirst for knowledge. I also teach the Puggles class through the Awana club at my church, and I participate with Sunday school, because I want the children to learn more about love to help counteract all the hate they will encounter out in this world. I do believe in Jesus.

I do not and will not throw my views off on others, nor will I preach, nor will I argue about who is right or who is wrong. Each has the right to make choices for themselves, and even though I do go to church, it does not mean that I agree with everything that is said. No matter whether it's the Bible, or another source that you read from; I guarantee that if read by more than 1, both will get something different from it, that is why we are called individuals.

For this one there is the world's oldest church. I used to live 5 blocks away from that church.

BTW: The city that I was born in was the city that that church is in.

Answer 6

Cathari as described in the 1st Ecumenical Counsel.
You labeled us with a lot of names, in between burning us and our books.

We had religious freedom in the British Isles until 600 A.D.
Then we had religious freedom in Bohemia
Then we had religious freedom in Occitania
Now we have religious freedom in the USA.
Today we are called Baptists.

Do you understand the arrogance and ignorance portrayed in your post? "Just because I do not know of anything else, this is what I will call you".

You really sound ridiculous.
