I am a Christian, specifically Church of Christ
I love God and any theological discussion, so I'm anxious to hear others views.

dont know what baptist entails, but CoC is:
instrumental-less worship( no mention of instruments in New Testament) women cant lead prayer/singing/teach young adults (verse in one of the Timothy letters on women being quiet in the church) strictly bible based, baptism emphasized

I am a Christian, born and raised in the Protestant church. I currently attend Mars Hill Church in Seattle, Washington, where the population of Christians is about the same as mainland Communist China.
Here is the Doctrinal Statement of my church, which I fully agree with: http://www.marshillchurch.org/conten...rinalStatement

I'm some sort of combination between the three a's: atheist, agnostic, apatheist. I'm not quite sure where right now.

i'm not sure that that's such a practical view. whether or not one considers the existence of god a meaningful question doesn't change that many, many others do, and they impact your life in a very meaningful way. it seems that regardless of whether or not someone is interested in god's existence they should definitely be interested in whether or not god's existence should play a role in how we should do things, and that means dealing with those who take god's existence to be a very important question. that means, in some relevant way, the question of god's existence is an important one.

If I'm indifferent to god's existence, than I'm most certainly indifferent to whether or not god's existence determines how we/I do things. It's entirely possible to not care either way, and still interact with people who do believe in god.

let's say that you're a homosexual and you want to get married: then it matters.
let's say you get pregnant or you get someone pregnant, and the two of you want an abortion: then it matters. let's say that you have some disease which is likely to be cured if stem cell research was allowed to flourish: then it matters. let's say researchers believe they have developed a method of cloning human organs, but there is a current ban on doing any such thing because it is tantamount to acting like God, and you will die without getting a new kidney: then it matters. let's say that you're on death row, and the newly elected governor is a catholic and, hence, opposed to capital punishment: then it matters. let's say you live in an area ravaged by natural disaster such as new orleans, and christian organizations feel they are commanded by God to help such individuals: then it matters. the list goes on and on. whether you realize it or not, you are affected daily by the belief in some god. islamic militancy, christian charity, protestant work ethic, all these things and more affect the world we all live in, and they all depend on some belief about god's existence. i'm telling you: it matters.

Yes, I didn't say it doesn't matter, just not to me, but thanks for listing things that religion has tainted and/or ruined.

you live in this world, and a huge number of people base their decisions on what they believe their god wants of them. you are affected. it determines how much you pay for gas, how you are treated at the airport, how you used the internet, whether or not you can be monitored by the government, and literally countless other things.
