This little factoid is important, for me. How many of the Christians on this board who argue fervently for their faith would still hold the beliefs they have had they not been born Christian?
While many here have obviously thought about why they are Christian, and what they think about being Christian, how many here have thought about whether or not they should be Christian, and whether or not other faiths might have more value or truth?
I should add that this really shouldn't be targeted at Christians, and that most people born into a particular faith are probably the same.

One thing, there are certain things I Beleive. And Christianity (in some interpretations) fits with those Beleifs.
Additionally, I have felt stuff, which leads me to beleive that I am right in being a Christian.
I am not going to go out on a limb and say other ways can't lead to God. I am going to say that Christianity is the best way (that I have seen) to God.
peace,

(additionally, I beleive in Christ, so I think that people who aren't Christian are saved through Him (just like Abraham was))
