Ashlyn you might have to accrue some responses and likes and so forth for a few days till you can start your own thread in some forums. It's part of the rules around here, like many online forums actually.

 

Where did you get that idea?

 

From when I joined here and couldn't start a thread in some forum of which I don't recall now. Someone told me what I just said to Ashlyn. However, I do have recall like many 68yo people and can withstand correction if wrong.

 

Right. It may be just a misunderstanding. Hopefully @Ashlyn111 can jump right in.

 

Religion is the imitation of Christianity.That “ inside of the cup vs. the outside of the cup “ thingy.It will send you to Hell.Get the real thing. 1cor15:1-4

 

I agree mostly.
I think this is about two things.
1) Labels
2) Context
Really, the "I believe in God, but..." is the dangerous part.
As you have noted, the "... but I'm not religious." part is not.
We shouldn't be "religious" for religion's sake.

I listen to someone say, "But I do believe in God...", realizing full well that they did not. They had no idea what it meant to believe in God. Really just the positive side of agnosticism. As in, "There might be a God."
