Is Christianity accepting Jesus as the one true path, or actually doing what he said, or what? 70+% of American identify as Christians, but does that matter? If I act in a Christian manner but when put on the spot say that I don't really think about Jesus or God or anything, does that make me less of a Christian than someone who plays up the whole "sin and repent later" aspect of things?
It seems to me that being a Christian and living a Christian life are two vastly different things that can either co-inside or not.
Tricky stuff, this.
That's why I added the living a Christian life quantifier. Unfortunately, I know of a great many people who would self-identify as Christians, yet their lives would show them to be anything BUT Christian.
I mean, I think it's still a majority of this country calls themselves Christian, but in terms of those living Christian lives, it seems to me to be far less.
