Catholic. I wasn't sure if I should say Catholic or Christian, tbh I don't know the difference.
Catholicism is a denomination of Christianity.
How about you tell us, since you were so obviously there when it happened.Quote:

what i have learnt in school.
What is God?
-God is a supreme spirit who alone exists of himself and is infinite in all perfections.
-God was NOT created; He is that spirit who is able to give the gift of creation without having that gift conferred on him.
Whatdo we know about God?
-God has ALWAYS existed; it is God's nature to exist.
-We say that God is Eternal and Infinite and that there is only one god.
-This belief in one God is known as Monotheism.
-The belief in more than one God is known as Polytheism.(i think that is spelt right).
God as Father
-The Christian Sign is the sign of the cross " In the name of the Father..."
-We are baptised in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, this is the blessed trinity - Three persons in one God.
This is a mystery that is fundamental to the Christian Faith.
-Summary-
One God made up of three persons - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - Trinity
God is INFINITE and almighty - He can do all things - omnipotent (all powerful)
but can not go agaisnt his nature which is infinitely good.
God was created from "Ex Nihilo" (from nothing)
Genesis is a symbolic story of the creation of the world.
The Church accepts the Big Bang Theory of origin of the universe, but it is ordered and sustained by God.
God is our Father in that he loves us, cares for us and has given us the world and our life.
We are made in the image and likeness of God, chiefly in our souls, which are immortal, like God.
Jesus Christ means in Hebrew "Joshua Messiah" which further means "God Saves the annointed one"
do i need to explain more?
If god made everything, where did god come from? Hmmmmmmm, explain that with some actual logic, none of that "He is the holy spirit and has always existed" crap, because you and I know that doesnt make any sense.
Oh, and why would I go to hell for not believing in god, if murders can get to heaven by apologizing? How about this: If I die, and god happens to exist, Ill apoligize for not believing in him, and it'll be all cool. He cant take it out on us, there is no proof he even exists.
I myself am an atheist, always have been however I don't begrudge anyone else their beliefs either.
It's weird, after reading this thread I am becoming more and more into believing in God, however I'd never become a Christian. I am atheist and always will be I suppose, an atheist with a slight belief in God.
