It's a pretty simple question. Personally, I am a Christian. I believe in God and the teachings of the Bible, which does include traditional values, but also includes compassion and love for people who do not share my beliefs.

  • Sorta-kinda. I'm Eastern Orthodox, attend the services, receive the Mysteries, and spend a lot of time studying the theology. But overall I'm pretty misotheistic in my worldview. The problem of suffering in particular is something I have trouble dealing with. In other words, it's not that I disbelieve in God but just that I'm not sure I believe God really loves us or cares. A lot of Orthodox writers like Dostoevsky struggled with the same sentiments. Even the Psalms are pretty misotheistic, as well as the book of Job.
