Religion poll

/combo-breaker:

I'm non-religious and accept all faiths

But mainly I consider Orthodoxism to have a similarity to Catholicism.
Both religions believe in God and Jesus. Period.

Well at least that's how Catholicism works here.

Lets go waaaaay back in the history of mankind, more specifically, the fall of Rome, 476 C.E.

Around then was the Great Schism, the breaking of relationships between the tetrarchs of the East and West halves of the Roman Empire.

The only real difference however involves the pope and culture, so, ya essentially they are the same but with that big difference.

Not interesting at all. Obviously predictable.

kinda surprised there are no Buddhist, or at least no votes yet

Budhaism always felt more like a philosophy of life than a religion.

yeah, your right in a way, kinda like Confucianism...

I thought it would be Atheist, Christian, & Catholicism/Judaiism(depending on who wants to make the distinction) in the top three.

You underestimate people Aard...

Mahayana Buddhism actually worships Buddha as a god

I luvs tehm

Nah, most people aren't logical. To be honest I was expecting Atheist to out-weigh Christianity in the clan.

I guess you could say it did, if you count Agnosticism for half its worth, or even as the whole.

I believe there's a difference between them that's significant, but that's something for the Rancor Pit.

Agnosticism is the view that the truth value of certain claims—especially claims about the existence or non-existence of any deity, but also other religious and metaphysical claims—is unknown or unknowable

Atheism, in a broad sense, is the rejection of belief in the existence of deities. In a narrower sense, atheism is specifically the position that there are no deities.

There. Discussion ended.

being catholic is a form of Christianity...

it is like saying coffee is separate from drinks.

Coffee is a drink. There is no difference. it is a type of drink. Yes, there are other types of drinks, but they are all DRINKS.

another example. You belong to the Buttfuckery family. You have your brother who is Thomas Buttfuckery, yourself, Hero SausageMan Buttfuckery, etc etc. Each member of your family is differnt adn unique, but you are all Buttfuckery.

Same goes for Catholicism. Christianity is the family, and Catholicism is part of the family. Catholicism is a form of Christianity, and it is no more or no less a form of Christianity than the other forms that exist.

Move it to the Rancor Pit.

Guys, if it bothers you that much then just combine the two columns into one number. FFS.

Aren't catholics Christians?
