What does it mean when a country of 100 takes a religious affiliation census that only totals to 74?
Lol. It means they have put their faith in the wrong books?

@Sativied I think the ritualistic portions that many Christians envelop loses the true meaning of Christs teachings, which is absolute love. Love and charity bring the best out of people in any religion. I do see where you are coming from and lived much of my life repelling my faith and belief because of a disconnect that I felt from religion all religion's in general. There are teachings thoughout the Bible that help me and guide me during good times and bad and sometimes in the same teachings. I had moments of facing giants in my life which I conquered like David as well as times that the fear of king Saul possessed me when his army cowarded back to the tents. To me and many others, Christ gives me strength and guidance for compassion and time to reflect on something bigger than all of this. My time with God is the best time of my day. I know I'm not perfect but I strive to be. I strive to love like Jesus did and I see nothing wrong in that for anyone. Too many people are in need of love in this world. Too many people are desperate and I know that helping them with no wanted return is what/who Jesus was /is to me.
Oldest trick in the book. If churches wouldn’t have a tax exemption you’d have about $80billion extra in revenue and could easily end such poverty. Same Roman fuck I mentioned above started that tax exemption about 1700 years ago. Least they can do is provide some food to the hungry. Gotta keep’m alive to suffer like christ.Hey, I think many churches do a lot of good things for the poor and food banks, etc. So do I.
If the US contained 100 people there would be no religionI answered before researching. Now i found this.

If the U.S. contained just 100 adults, 25 would be people who identify with evangelical Protestant denominations, 23 would be religiously unaffiliated and 21 would be Catholic. Just two would be Mormon, two would be Jewish and one would be Muslim.
The whole Jesus love thing in christianity is just a fancy attractive wrapping. It’s like Trump saying MAGA. Jesus may have been all about love,Christianity isn’t, it’s about suffering. .
no one seems to like you
You're going to surprised as fuck when you die.
I, uh, understand you much better now. Every day, when I think "what kind of fucking idiot do you have to be to still support that asshole Trump?", I will think of you.
Coming from you, that is a high compliment.Says someone who never injects anything of value for either side into any conversation. I understand your mouth is full so often, that its hard to type let alone learn something other than how to rim.
I don't carry my faith to get any benefit in an afterlife I do so because it helps me live a good life with a purpose. If after death I become worm food and that is it, so be it.
You ever hear of heaven on earth?
