Poll question: Have You Accepted Jesus Christ As Your Lord and Savior?
I just...I just don't have time for God.

Plus, I love sleeping in on Sundays, all comfy and warm in my bed under the covers, mmm.

Oh yea, and dating both men and women ain't exactly a plus in my column either.

2. I was sort of hoping for a toaster
or maybe a portable CD player.

Yup, I'm going to hell.

9. Jesus told me he doesn't wanna be no "lord" or "savior"
That's just born again psycho babble..

I'm a Gnostic and have my own ideas about what "Jesus" is..

Jesus wasn't even his actual name its Yeshua. And he spirit is in turmoil over the amount of bloodshed in his name and all the false prophets invoking his name. He really hates it.

14. The last Christian died on the cross.
I am a Christian but I beleive Jesus cares more about what is in your heart, what you do to help people (like voting democrat) than how much time you spend in Church. Just my personal take on the whole thing. I think He would have voted against the whole AMrriage amendment. Unfortunately the majority of RW Christians follow Paul more than Jesus, they are just too lazy to realize it.

If the Apocalypse happens before it's time to pay up, you don't have to. It's a real steal of a deal.

24. Did Jesus have to accept himself as his Lord and Savior
so he could go to heaven too? Because all I keep hearing is how he kept saying he wasn't the messiah.....and everyone else keeps going "OH YES YOU ARE"

in hell. Everything from here is "up."

31. Isn't That A Bit Pretentious For Someone To Name Their Child JESUS?
He's got big shoes to fill and unless he can walk-on-water, everyone's bound to see him as a failure. Eh?

33. on a serious note:
It is pretty common in Mexico to name a kid Jesus. My father in law as born on Christmas so he was named Jesus. DH is a junior. sometimes, to be funny in an arguement, I call him Jesus (american pronunciation) and ask him to forgive me. i'm going to hell for sure.

30. The resurrection is a blood-soaked myth
Which more than half the country believes, literally, in spite of a complete lack of evidence and despite all logic to the contrary. 2001's monkey's worshipping a mystery slab, was more evidence of a diety than anything we've seen down here.

I haven't accepted Jesus as anything other than a defaced-poster boy for a hypocrite's S&M wet-dream. Who would've come back and stomped the new jesus freaks into hades if he had had a scintilla of supernaturalness in him.

43. I am a cradle Catholic
and I accept the teachings of Jesus and try very hard to live my life by the corporal works of mercy. I don't always make it to church, but I actually do enjoy going when I go. My father, a great man by any standards, always said "going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than going to a garage makes you a car". It is what you do/say after you leave church that counts. IMO
