Am I a Christian?

[BBAS 64]

I am not a Christian, I am a Deist and I just happen to catch this thread while I was skimming the net.

First I want to comment on this quote made by someone above.

...grrr...how do you quote someone???

anyway the quote is:
"There is only one kind of Christian."

Firstly that statement in it's self is wrong. Do you understand what Christ means? No, not Jesus Christ...Christ by it's self? I'll help you out.

Christ - Any expected deliverer (look it up). This means anyone who believes in a deliverer or prophet of any sort...then can be a Christian. Be they a Christian Deist or a Christian believing in any other deliverer.

I am not a Christian Deist, but I do believe in the right of Christian Deists to call themselves so, and have defended that right many times. So to answer the quote, there is not only one kind of Christian.

anyway, I don't want to fight, just to make you understand the meaning of Christ. I may post some more on this board...but well a lot of my opinions don't go over well with Christians. Anyone interested in my views may visit my page and board by doing a search for Privation Deism on the web.

thank you all for being here,
