I am a Christian because my vicar says that in my church we have bishops and archbishops who don't even believe Jesus existed. So, since they are Christians and nobody will deny that, I must be so all the more.

I know many atheists and fundies say I'm not a Christian but I think we've got to leave it to the church to decide. They are the ones who will be doing the rite of confirmation for me later this year when i'm back in England. Angel Cloud

Questions:
Why would you let your church decide what you are?
Have you tried googleling deist?
If people that are specialized on the sublect of Jesus don't believe he existed why shoud you?

Don't be offended when I say this, but you strike me as someone who hasn't got a clue of what he's on about or doing. Please don't take it the wrong way, I do not intend to upset/offend.

No, I'm not upset or offended. I don't just let the church decide. I've been an altar boy since I was 5 and I like the church and I do think of myself as a Christian. Actually, I have no doubt I am a Christian. Not all my priests think that Jesus didn't exist.
