What do you think Christian means then?

Christian is a person that follows the Christianity religion. A christian is a person.

Christianity is a religion, not a god. It is a following of specific beliefs and morals. You can still follow those morals if you do not believe in a deity.

A Theist is a person that believes in god
An Agnostic is one that is unsure in the existance of a god.
An Atheist is one that does not belive in a god.

Look you learnt something new today.

But most people believe being a Christian, in its most simplest of definitions, is a full believer of Christ.
To believe in Christ is to believe He is God.
Thus, one's believing in (a) God~

Atheist, as you say, is an unbeliever. I can say, yes, an atheist can go to church, but not believe in God. (Hell, I'm sure many "christians" just shuffle in and out of churches without gaining a pixel of belief and sometimes not even having any) Is that what you meant to say~?

For the record (so you don't try to snark at me) yea I'm a Christian (not Catholic, Protestant), and I have dear close athetist/agnostic/pagan friends, so I'm not trying to hate. I'm just trying to get the facts cleared so there's no more misunderstanding, and/or condescending banter coming from either side.

For the record, it's 7am, I haven't slept a wink all night, so I'll probably have a lot of spelling / grammar / not making sense sort of things

Typing it into my dictionary, the first result was
"religion that follows Jesus Christ's teachings: the religion based on the life, teachings, and example of Jesus Christ"
It is not said specificly you must belive in a god or jesus, but following the example. Atheist christians may believe that though jesus may not have existed, he was an example of all goodness, even if made up by man.
It's something you can learn from, even if it is untrue.

I agree to that, that anyone can learn from The Holy Bible, and so do a couple of my atheist/agnostic friends, which is probably why we can be eye-to-eye because anyone can possess and follow goodness~

"Christianity" I would say matches that definition perfectly, but "Christian" (as in noun/a person) pulls up "of, pertaining to, believing in, or belonging to the religion based on the teachings of Jesus". Also there is saying someone who "exhibits a spirit proper to a follower of Christ". I suppose if someone wants to dissect the dictionary's many definitions a pick certain parts out (eveyrone's guilty of that sometimes), I suppose a christian could just be someone who follows some example, though the definitions also include "believing in", so both bits can't shouldn't be ignored.
((Ooh, checked again,and sorry, that was adjective. Actually, under noun, it reads "a person who believes in Jesus Christ" and "a person who exemplifies in his/her own life the teachings of Christ". Again, hitting those two factors))
A full-fledged 100% Christian should be believing AND following (many believe but don't follow and vicey-versy), which is an aim of my church. (Not to mention Jesus's request of His believers)
Mhmm, mhmm, I'm liking this~
Interesting chat and notes brought up here Thanks for offering some insight worth bringing up to my church's youth for discussion~ (yea I'm an adult, but i'm kinda the teacher's aide)
Take care now, young miss~

its not original, I've seen so many remakes of the last supper I'm surprised anyone would call it original (it is well made though). Last Supper parodies are a meme for crying out loud! It was even on a cover of the best main-stream hip-hop artist NaS.

Coming from someone who's not religious (but grew up in a Lutheran environment which is probably the most lenient Christian sub-religion ever), I find this absolutely amazing.

I see it as showing the Lord's willingness to sacrifice himself for a selfish, unsatisfied people. The fact that the women are acting so savage and greedy... He may have died for our sins, but that doesn't mean we've all been changed. People absolutely crave being saved from hell, going to Communion every Sunday to drink the Lord's blood, eat his flesh.

You all may not want to admit it, but that's kinda the way it is. We're selfish, we're greedy, we're sinful. Everybody's sinned, whether it be big or small.

Also, the fact that all the sinners are women: Have you all ever read the Bible? Women suck. Women are, like, the worst. It was Eve who ate the apple and talked Adam into eating it too. There are tons of things in the Bible about keeping women in line (they can't talk in church, they have to walk a pace behind their man, etc.).
Welcome to the world of sexism, everyone. The Bible doesn't believe in women's rights.
So, obviously, it's an awesome argument for why gays can't have rights. Just sayin'.

Mature content isn't a matter of opinion, it is whether it violates the rules or not. Being put as a DD, an admin has seen it, and does not require it.

Art, for generations and generations has been subjected to criticism, good and bad, and has shocked more people than we know. The most famous pieces tday have been unaccepted and shunned when they were made. These comments, all of them, and the conversation (and let's not avoid the fights) are a proof that this is an exquisit piece of art.

I dont know what to say

(not a religious guy) I dont find it "offensive" not at all, but also I dont find it "impresive"

to be honest I just came to read the coments, I love debates about religious and non-religious people

(not saying that they didnt work on it, its just )

if you don't like it, move along.
