But yeah; thanks considering I'm part of the 'staff'.
Before I was staff I would have just said it was awesome myself
Dunno if I should say 'our' of 'the' site really lol. Because I'm not an admin; but I am staff.
Yeah; I first liked these forums when I joined because they run really nicely and I think it's really free and smooth. Easy to use. I just liked it here.
I still like it here of course. But I'm the 'staff' now so I don't know if that would be bragging or not lol?
But I just 'moderate'. Or 'supermoderate' really. Or I will if need be:p

You know a "Thank you" would have sufficed.
EvF's sig did used to say: extremely verbose ...erm something!

I thought that was quite fitting! LOL
*winks at EvF*

It's a huge surprise to me that you're not aware of that.Well to me Christ can also mean "Jesus Christ", as in the man. Whether you believe the man was a God or not is down to your outlook, but you can certainly follow the main and not the God. So even if we take your definition as "Christ = God", how then do you reconcile that with your previous statement, which said "If they were followers of Jesus, absolutely. Why not?" in response to my proposition that atheists who followed Jesus could rightly be called Christians.
I say again, you seem to have two conflicting views. One says that atheists who follow Jesus can be called Christians, and the other says that Christians must believe in God...
No I still disagree with your definition.

Jesus Christ said he was God. Many times. Followers of Christ are not those, like in other faiths, that need to understand him as only a man. Those are not primarily followers of Christ. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
So yes that is a contradiction in terms, atheists who follow Jesus. This label, I presume, would describe someone who agrees with the moral guidelines without accepting the divinity. It's an oxymoron. Like 'Microsoft Works' (my favourite
