So you really don’t know the difference between lie and allegory?

As for the other question, a Christian is one who follows the teachings of Jesus Christ, and tries not to be annoying to bystanders by wearing his faith out on his sleeve. I am a Christian.

If you think that there’s no difference between a lie and an allegory and you believe that the Bible is an allegory, what exactly do you believe?

If it’s all allegory, there is no real sin, or need for redemption, or real Christ. How can you claim to believe in Christ if you don’t even think that He was real?

Nope, following the teachings of Christ isn’t it Buck.

And come to think of it Buck, Christ I think would rejoice in people that might be seen as annoying if it meant to the point that people actually understood what Christianity is!

I found the whole process somewhat annoying and even to a point quite disturbing before I was saved myself.
