How many girls (any age) consider themselves "christians"?
If so, do you:
1. Go to wild partys?
2. Drink hard liquor?
3. have premarital sex?
4. curse?
5. Accept gays?
6. Judge others?
7. Berate others?
8. lie about anything?
9. Mess with guys feelings?
10. like other christians?
11. sin, repent, then sin again?
12. not like certain people for whatever reason?
I'm not trying to come off as anti-christian, I'm only asking inspite of bad experiences I've had with women who've called themselves "saved by christ" or "forgiven by god". And I'm not trashing woman in general, I'm just disillusioned by those who I thought were geniune great people.
Wow! I didnt expect so many answers! Thanks! Although a few of you got the wrong impression of me. i never said I was a geniune person myself, Hell yeah I'm a sinner! But I have an open door policy and would like to give respect and admiration for those who are honest and truly give a **** about others!! I know there are both male and females who sin, repent, and are great people regardless of there backgrounds...
Thank you all for answering my question and have a great evening!

I believe in god, but that doesn't necessarily make me a 'christian'
I accept same sex relationships, and I also think they should have equal rights.
I try my best not to judge others, but that is human nature. You cannot control your thoughts, but you can control your behaviour.
I've been to wild parties, but not lately. We all have at some point or another.
I drink hard liquor, but prefer beer
I have pre-marital sex. and I feel nothing against it.
Swearing is a form of expression.
I lie, but only when necessary.
I have messed with guys' feelings, but that was so highschool.
I do not hate people, i may dislike them.
We all sin, every day of our lives, and we're bound to do it again tomorrow.
Not sure what Berate means.
Sure I like other 'christians' If they have not given me a reason to dislike them, I wouldn't not like them

I do. And I'm 20.
1. Go to wild parties? no
2. Drink hard liquor? no, and nothing else alcoholic either.
3. Have premarital sex? no
4. Curse? never in my life have I sworn.
5. Accept gays? ...Accept them as great people, yes. Be friends with them, yes. Approve of their decision to act on homosexual feelings, no.
6. Judge others? ...Don't we all sometimes? I try not to though.
7. Berate others? no.
8. Lie about anything? little white lies when they're necessary so as to not hurt people's feelings.
9. Mess with guys feelings? No.
10. Like other Christians? yes, why wouldn't I?
11. Sin, repent, then sin again? don't we all? I try not to...
12. Not like certain people for whatever reason? You can dislike whoever you want. You just have to forgive them, and not hate them. And there are relatively few people who fall under this category.

i consider myself christian. i was raised as a christian and have been baptised and gotten communion and confirmation and all that and i pray everyday. i think church is boring tho and only go when i have to.
1. the only parties i go to are bday parties where there is no alchol

3. have not had it, but not 100% sure if i will or not.
4. i curse pretty often
5. i accept gays
6. i judge a little, but i wont treat someone differently because of how they look or what i have heard or anything
7. i dont berate ppl
8. i only lie about little things that dont hurt ppl, eg. if someone gets a haircut that they like and i dont i wont say its ugly
9. i dont mess with guys feelings
10. i dont really talk to any other christians. just dont know any. but i have liked the ones i have met.

We are human, no one is perfect but Jesus. The good thing for us, is we have a loving and forgiving God who will ALWAYS forgive us.
We all fall short of the glory of God :)

Unfortunately, because Christianity is thought of as something you're "supposed to be" in a lot of places, people often end up calling themselves Christian when it's not actually of their own choosing.
I no longer consider myself Christian, but when I was (until recently) I only did #5 and #10, both of which I'm pretty sure are in keeping with Christianity. Well, and #11, but in Christianity pretty much everyone does that to some degree.
Actually, I still only do #5, #10, and occasionally #4. One might say I still do #11 as well, but I don't consider a lot of things to be sins anymore now that I'm no longer a Christian.

The "liberals" hanging in mom's basement in their PJs and posting here are not bright enough to read the missives of uber far-leftwingers like Dowd and Matthews. Sentences with more than six words scramble what's left of the brains of the lil darlins. Our Most Revered Leader Himself, King Barry the Great, could come out and say "Okay, okay, so I lied! YES, I went to bed while Benghazi was going down!!! I hectored my government about folks funding my opponent with the full knowledge that they would act, sooner or later. That's why I started in on them so early. SO WHAT - tell me what you're gonna DO about it, punk!?!", and the lil darlins would still say "But...but...my boy Barry is pure as the driven snow!!!" It's just how they roll.

I am Catholic.
1. No
2. No
3. No
4. Very rarely
5. As people, yes, but I recognize what they are doing as disordered from the way God created a marriage.
6. No. Who am I to judge?
7. No
8. No, only white lies like "No, I really do like your new haircut". Lies are too difficult to keep track of.
9. No. I'm very straightforward and never try to hurt them on purpose.
10. Yes, I tend to like everyone unless they have proven themselves to be mean to me or my friends or family.
11. Yes. I am a sinner, I'm not perfect (no one is), but I am trying with all my might to work towards being more Christlike every day.
12. As I said before, I generally like everyone who hasn't purposely hurt me or my friends or family.
I swear that this is the absolute truth. For what purpose would I have to lie on Yahoo Answers? Just as I said in #8, I don't lie.

you are a fool if you think "genuinely great people" cannot do any of those things. I mean some of those I can see your view, but if you think that someone can't be a "genuinely great" person and do 4, 5, 8, 11, 12, then YOU are NOT a "genuinely great" person youself.
in fact thinking that a genuinely great person could not be such and do ANYTHING on that list, makes it so you are a hypocrite, because that is YOU violating:
6, 7, 8, 11, 12

Are you saying that Christians don't sin? If you are, then you are totally wrong. Christians sin just as unbelievers sin. Christians aren't perfect. Don't try to put us on a pedestal. Only God belongs there.
