Corrosion..... How are they one in the same?
Religion is man doing things in order to gain some favor of God.
Christianity Is based entirely on faith in what has been done BY God for man.

Christianity is unique among all other faiths, because Christianity is more about a relationship, rather than religious practice. Instead of adhering to a list of “dos and don’ts,” the goal of a Christian is to cultivate a close walk with God the Father. That relationship is made possible because of the work of Jesus Christ, and the ministry in the life of the Christian by the Holy Spirit.

What are you on about?
No, I am not religious. I'm an atheist.
And yes, Christianity was a religion last time I looked. One of the main ones actually.

Hi Mark,
Most think of me as religious. Those who know me. Yet, I am not religious at all. I know my faith, and don't have to use the excuse of religion.
Those who don't know me, have called me many things. I have been attacked, called a witch, a soothsayer, a reader of omens etc...... But, if you don't know me, and you come across anything I write, you would call me a Christian. That is the name of my faith. - None other! - I follow the faith in the name of Christ.
Your sister,
Ginger,

no, i am not religious. I, like my Lord and Savior Christ Jesus am against religion. I am a Christian, and being Christian means to have a personal relationship with Christ and to be a follower of Jesus. religion on the other hand is man made.

Well it seems according to half the people in here I am just a member of a cult with no mind of my own so I guess I dont have the ability to answer this question.
