Hahaha, this is an entertaining thread. I think I'll join.
I believe every piece of shit that the Bible says. I used to be a blameless Christian -who didn't go to church- for awhile in high school, but after I graduated, me and ev0l became best friends. Yeah, and I didn't want to claim Christianity and join the bandwagon of super-hypocritical Christians out there. Personally, I think Christianity is a fun and fulfilling religion, but I didn't get that idea from looking at other Christians. Looking at other Christians, I'd think that Christianity was a washed up cult who's members didn't even know the first thing about the religion in the first place. I got my view of Christianity from walking with god (per say) myself.

Christians -alot of them- give christanity a bad rep.
My advice: Don't look at christianity through christians. Experience it for yourself and then formulate your jack-shit opinions about it.

Another reason why I'm so pro-Christianity is probably because I attended a Christian high school, elementary school, and pre-k. Though I don't think my parents are Christians, they were set on getting me closer to god. This I am thankful for -even if that high school did give me a shitty education (but I turned out alright didn't I?).
I'm telling you that I believe the bible in it's entirety (as far as i can remember) because of personal experience (mostly). Any nay-sayers of the bible wont find me at their door proclaiming Holy Pimping Jesus is gunnuh send 'em to hell, but they can bet that there's no possible way they're going to convince me that the bible is a lie and that Christianity is false. That's not to say that I'm hard set on Christianity even if a valid point is presented in the other direction, but only that there's nothing on this shit pile we call a planet that is more believable than the bible, and god (IMO).
Furthermore, there’s actually proof of the bible. The creationist theory has been proven beyond debatability –to me. Personal convictions (and I don’t like that word) keep me in check as far as beliefs go, etcetera.
I'm still not claiming Christianity for myself, but if I were to jump back into religion and start actually 'obeying' the laws and shit, that religion would be Christianity (word count check for 'Christianity in this post: lots).

HAHAHAHAHA that site is pretty funny.
And another thing: some of the new translations of the bible are getting… questionably far from the original text. Well, anything in English has already been distorted enough, so the more we translate and translate for sake of understanding, the more we stray from the truth. It’s that … umm damnit… it’s that … that theory that everything, when messed with, goes towards disorder –I forget the name of the theory. What we should do –or maybe what would be optimal- is stop translating to help people understand it. People need to grow a brain and THINK. THINK MUTHERFUCKER! THINK! I don’t consider all these new translations of the bible as the actual bible. They’re basically just ‘views’ and stuff. Instead of saying “the new blah blah translation” it should say “This is the Bible…I reworded it though” or “This is the Bible IMO”.
