I need to comment here... "Christianity is about doing stuff, not making other people do it." Sam_acw, there is so much truth in that statement. I would add the companion statement: It is about changing me, not changing others.
Once I came to this realization in life (it was a process and a journey) I didn't have to compartmentalize my view points in different areas in life. It has also allowed me to be intellectually honest in the most enjoyable way. I know this is nothing new; I'm on a path many others have traveled before me. That statement just really holds meaning to me. Thanks for putting it up there.

I agree with Skilletboy. Christianity is about you doing stuff, not making other people do it.

I'd say it's even better than that: Christianity is not about what you do, but what Jesus did.
