Religion Poll!

Vote for your religion. I don't mind saying I'm a Chrisitan, but for those who would rather keep it private, I'll make it a no-show poll. (That means no one can see what you picked). Please vote. If you are an atheist, please don't vote.

You forgot Jedi!! :eek:

Also I noticed you left off Athenian.

Also which one of all those Christian options actually means you are a "Christian, as in Christ with in" not just some gal going to church on special holidays?

Put me down for that one.

Pick the baptist, protestant option. I am a very religious person myself. I don't go to church for show, I really want to worship God. I guess I was assuming all the people who would answer in this poll would feel the same about their religion. So people who don't really believe in their religion, don't answer the thread please!

Well i am a diest, but deism is not one there (no big suprise, it is a considered a dead relgion)

Also, your choices seem a bit off. No Hindu? And muslim? A person is a muslim, their relgion is islam.

Well you don't have to be so picky. I just put it up for fun, no insults intended.

I just put up the major religions.

Christian evangelical.. i know.. in terms of christianity there's too much 'versions' altho it is basicaly the same thing (JESUS is DA MAN!!)

not to rag on old scars but you did miss a few.. although muslim/islam is there.. just spelt as 'muslem' hehe

its a good thread.. as long as people dont take it seriously or whatever-the-other-word-i-was-thinking-but-forgot..

Is there any reason for this thread ? This is a tech site, not religion.com forums.

This thread will get closed very (very) quickly if it gets out of hand.

I posted it in the Meeting Place, and it's just for fun. I'm just curious as to how many people here are of what religion. No need to get mad!

Hmm, it does state on the forum tagline:

The Meeting 'spot' (?? Viewing)
Where TS readers go to discuss less technical & general topics.

So basically anything goes.
But traditionally, people get in fights and I or another mod remove or lock the thread.

It does say this in the FAQ:

OK, how the hell did nukey manage to timetravel before posting?


This is SNGX1275 speaking now, because replying would make the post even more confusing. Julio made a mistake with the forum time yesterday. Setting the wrong date. The problem is resolved now, but there isn't an easy way to change the dates of the posts that show up as Feb 21. So until tomorrow things are going to be wierd.

A very good idea... as I discovered recently, things can get quite out of hand when you invite an atheist/agnostic/maltheist into a religious discussion...

So am I. And although I'd hardly even thought about it before that discussion, it turns out I'm pretty passionate about it. Passionate enough to get my IP banned from the Ubisoft game forums...
