You get extra credit if you can explain, why and to what extend you regard the christian religion and christianity to be synonymous terms (as the quote seems to suggest).
wat.
lol, seriously, what is this?
I have no idea when in history christianity invented the need to be saved (from hell, I suppose). Can you show me a pre-christian notion of hell? (seriously curious -- i.e. I know jews don't share the christian notion of hell).
Yes, christianity=christian religion, get over it. Why are you hesitant to associate your self with the christian religion? Have some integrity man, if you take that side the least you could do is own it.
It seems like you have some shame associated with being christian (which you should); which is a good thing, it means you have a good person inside you which is beginning to take notice that christianity is immoral. Now you just need to take the leap and disown the ideology that's causing so much destruction on this planet.
