I have Christian friends, who live their lives with very little regard for the Bible and it's decrees.
As a result, they are happy, filled with a sense of liberty, and aren't constantly struggling with social and personal dilemmas.
These people aren't concerned about having Christian values forced on others in public schools and in other institutions of government. They don't judge other people's lifestyles or prefrences, and they don't feel other people are inferior to them.
To answer your question, I wasn't that type of Christian. I always felt that I should be fully in it or fully out.

(b) It's stupid.
Stronger points to be sure, but not points that actually appeal to people of faith.
