What I don't get is why you have to "choose" any particular denomination, like a political party, and settle for the one you agree with the most (or more likely, you just copied from those around you). You are then stuck with all of their proclamations of truth, whether or not you agree with them all.

Why not just be a christian and make up your own mind about what is moral and immoral?

Or even just be a theist, accept all the books we have are man made and very unlikely to be accurate portrayals of any kind of "god" and figure out what a good god would want you to do?
Feel free to send me a private message.
