Personally I can't think of anything I want to do which I can't due to Christianity.
Oh come on, that's easy! You can't live your life free from the constant threat of doing something that might land you in hell, nor the constant pressure of having to live up to the tyrannical standards of a cosmic dictator that simply will not practice what he preaches. Those are two of the things you can't do as a christian.
