He is alive today, seated with God the Father in heaven. I believe that humans are sinful by nature and, therefore, cannot have a relationship with God or enter heaven except through belief in Jesus Christ and trusting Him with control of your life. I have a personal relationship with my Lord and Savior, learning to know Him more through prayer, reading Scripture, fellowship with other believers, and worship through song and service.

I respect that others have a right to choose to believe or not to believe, since God created humanity with a free will to obey Him or not. But it saddens me to know that so many people choose to reject Jesus and are lost but don't even know it. I am not usually openly evangelistic, but I hope that the way I live my daily life and the things I say point people to God. If you have any questions about what I believe, feel free to PM me.
100% Practicing Roman Catholic. I couldn't not believe considering how much I was Devinely helped through my life.

I believe in God, and in Jesus - but I also believe that we are re-incarnated to keep learning and improving ourselves to become better human beings.

What does that make me?

I once heard this said: "I'm a recovering Catholic" & I think that fits for me. I'm in a strange place right now where I consider myself to be Christian, but do not believe in all that is preached in Christian churches. People are always supprised when I identify as Christian, I'm not sure exactly why. Maybe it is because I'm accepting of every one, and don't believe in the way to God being the same for everyone. It's strange and a bit confusing, so I identify with the person that said they are hacking their way through the wilderness.

I'm a reform Jew! I believe in God, but not as a greying old dude sitting on a throne but rather a non-corporeal higher power. I take the Torah as a guidebook while understanding it was written in totally, totally different times. I see Jewish traditions as more cultural than religious, and I think they're awesome for tying me to my Jewish roots but that ultimately God isn't going to come after me for a slice of bacon. My dad was raised Christian and became an atheist so I've always enjoyed the consumer aspects of Christmas and Easter, minus all of the Jesus bits.

here's a wikipedia link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitarian_Universalism
Unitarian Universalists (UUs) believe in complete but responsible freedom of speech, thought, belief, faith, and disposition. They believe that each person is free to search for his or her own personal truth on issues, such as the existence, nature, and meaning of life, deities, creation, and afterlife. UUs can come from any heritage, have any sexual orientation or gender identity, and hold beliefs from a variety of cultures or religions.
Concepts about deity are diverse among UUs. Some believe that there is no god (atheism); others believe in many gods (polytheism). Some believe that God is a metaphor for a transcendent reality. Some believe in a female god (goddess), a passive god (Deism), a Christian god, or a god manifested in nature or the universe (pantheism), as revealed by science. Many UUs reject the idea of deities and instead speak of the "spirit of life" that binds all life on earth. Unitarian Universalists support each person's search for truth and meaning in concepts of spirituality.

Interesting...I wonder if that religion was not created just to find a place for all those atheists. I think an atheist can easily be placed into this Unitarian Universalist religion.

Atheist and Buddhist here. I do not believe in a god but I do feel that there is something spiritual about our world. Buddhism 'lets' me believe both of those things.

My grandma would take me to a Protestant church when I was young. My parents didn't go to church until I was a bad teenager and they thought going to church would help so we went to a Lutheran church but that didn't last long. Now that my parents are retired and have the time they go to a Methodist church. I do not go to any kind of church anymore and don't feel the need to or want to.

I have issues with organized religion and the bible, mostly because of the corruption of humanity and/or that religion came only from humans/men mostly. I have been interested in Buddhism (which is more of a way of life than a religion, even though it's always catagorized with the other religions).
