And also, with current affairs being what they are (Mit Romney's run for president), it would have been fun to see how many Mormons there are. |

Would it have been so hard to list list Catholic and Protestant instead of implying that Catholics are not "Christian"? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6387633 Then there are Pentecostals -- that would have been interesting. And also, with current affairs being what they are (Mit Romney's run for president), it would have been fun to see how many Mormons there are. the poll only gives 12 choices.... I put Catholic as separate because they have their own rituals apart from Protestants... I wasn't trying to leave anyone out.... there just wasn't enough room.... you could start a poll with only 'Christian-type' faiths/religions.... this one is just more basic. |

This person makes a valid point - Catholics are Christian too. You should have made categories for Protestant and Catholic rather than "Christian" and Catholic if you intended to make a distinction. You should fix it. |

Yeah, and although at heart I'm a Christian, i don't like to align myself with the perception that people have of Christianity as being an extremist fundamentalist group of haters that are on this forum. Another poll just on type of Christian would be great... If you do, include a selection that is not affiliated with a church among the choices. |

| Resister User ID: 669410 United States04/27/2012 10:48 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Jesus is the only born son of God. He lived a perfect life, gave up his life to redeem those who would repent of their sins and believe in him, and He arose from the grave in victory over death. I follow Jesus the Christ/Messiah. Christ is the Greek word for anointed one, the equivalent of the Hebrew word Messiah which is the one who will come. Jesus is the fulfillment of prophesy as the anointed one who will come. The definition of the word Christian is follower of Christ. That's me. Any questions? "God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787 |
