Christianity Is A Religion by ATMC(f): 2:05pm On Mar 03, 2013 |
I have heard several times dt christianity is not a religion but d very same people dt make this statement will go on to say dt christianity is a way of life...lol. What a contradiction! D question is what is religion? What is a way of life? One answer can serve for both and dt is CULTURE. Culture is a way of life and religion is simply culture so christianity as a way of life is culture which can be referred to as religion. Think it through. |

ATMC: @ATMC Christianity is not religion per se but in parts religion, as in true religion as it is known and is based on all that James 1:27 is about |

moredendisc: How does this comment make sense- how is it not a contradiction?? |

Christianity is not a way of life as practice today but a religion you wear on your face to differentiate you from Muslim , Hindus , pagans etc |
Re: Christianity Is A Religion by ATMC(f): 2:40pm On Mar 03, 2013 |
@itbomb you have a point with respect to living as a christian but my point is dt christianity is a religion whether someone disputes or not, it doesn't change this fact. |

ATMC: @ATMC If you want to think it or other things through. Consider, why is it about Christianity and not about Jesus-ity? Consider, is there any difference between Christ and Jesus? Consider, what you have with your other half, your kid(s), dad or mum etc; is it "religion" you have with them? Fact of the matter is, religion is a facet, it is a feature of something bigger and true religion, a pure and genuine one acceptable to God, is about caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. |

ATMC: @moderndisc you mean to say christianity is not like every other religion...agreed...but d fact and truth remains dt it is a religion, agree?yeah it is a religion, unless d definition of religion has changed. |

Ubenedictus: yeah it is a religion, unless d definition of religion has changed.thanks i.chuka:what Christianity cannot be christ. Judging from d people dt first addressed d disciples as christians, they meant followers of christ abi? But let me ask you, are you a follower of christ? Its even better to be addressed as a believer than as a christian. Or better still be called christ than christian. |
