Are We Christians?

[Ammon]

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints... Christian?

[Faerie]

Do we REALLY need this poll??

[Behunin]

Well, it would be interesting to see what our harassers think. (well, maybe not )



Yes yes yes we are most definitely Christians. With the one and only same Christ and the one and only same atonement.

No. We don't need this website either, for that matter. What we need and want are very different, in most instances. Do we want this poll? I would say yes.

Interesting that the "Mormons aren't Christians" poster included salvation by grace alone as one of the essential tenets of Christianity.

That would exclude all Catholics, Orthodox, and Anglicans, reducing Christianity from the world's largest religion to third or fourth.

I had heard that Christianity was only the third or fourth largest religion in the world, but this list proves otherwise.

Christianity: 2 billion
Islam: 1.3 billion
Hinduism: 900 million
Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheist: 850 million
Buddhism: 360 million
Chinese traditional religion: 225 million
primal-indigenous: 150 million
African Traditional & Diasporic: 95 million
Sikhism: 23 million
Juche: 19 million
Spiritism: 14 million
Judaism: 14 million
Baha'i: 6 million
Jainism: 4 million
Shinto: 4 million
Cao Dai: 3 million
Tenrikyo: 2.4 million
Neo-Paganism: 1 million
Unitarian-Universalism: 800 thousand
Rastafarianism: 700 thousand
Scientology: 600 thousand
Zoroastrianism: 150 thousand

Well, that's interesting. Unitarian-Universalism is not considered a Christian religion. hmmmmmmmmmm

And with 11 million members, since we don't show up there... we must be among the Christians.

In case folks are unsure, the words in the OP are the link to the poll. Just click on them. Thanks.

What is Christian? ....I bet there aren't many Christians who even know....

What is Christian? To be a follower of Christ....not a church or sect or creed.

[Ammon]

Amazing, we're doing pretty good in there. The score is almost tied!
