What is it with you christians?! I said NO PREACHING!! I ask this question purely because I am curious how others label their faith, if at all. I don't want to be "saved" or "converted"

Unitarian Universalist
Atheist
Agnostic
On a certain level, Buddhist.
It plays a part in my life. Nothing dosent play a part in my life. How you act in your life, thousands of miles away from me, effects me in a small way.

I became one of those born-again Jesus Freaks of the 1970s. This was the Calvary Chapel movement that started in Costa Mesa, California USA. http://calvarychapel.org/?show=Resources.History
I was by myself when I asked Christ into my heart, because I figured if He IS God, He can meet me where I am at and not at a church. And He did, in a BIG way. Been walking and talking to Him for 36 years now.
I have always wanted a personal relationship with my Creator, but never knew how to gain it. Christianity showed me how and proved it beyond what I could imagine. The Bible showed me that this salvation was free, with no requirements other than to believe and trust in the Savior.
Christianity is founded on freedom. Freedom to receive, freedom to reject, freedom to opt-out, freedom to change your mind and opt-in. Free will is everything to God. He will never force anything upon you without your will to do so.

I am atheist. Therefore religion plays no part in my life. I live my life for my own morals and yes, my own morals greatly dictate my life.
