Christian atheism is a philosophical stance in which beliefs in conventional Christian notions of God are absent or rejected, but the moral teachings of Jesus are followed.

As an ex-Catholic, that was always my favorite stance. There's a lot of good in the religion, but it's buried under too much dogma and ritual.

You mean, thanks to you having no real conviction or having never really put the time in to understanding why it was you said you believed in something in the first place.

The good in it is common sense. I came up with the golden rule myself when I was 5. Then I came to find out some fag from 2000 years ago took credit for common sense.

That's for the baptism. There is no doubt or dispute, historically speaking (with records to back it up), that a man named Jesus from Nazareth was crucified under the Roman governor Pilate for claiming to be the messiah and other heresy.

Don't need to have a religion to be a good person; some should stop using religion as a get out of jail free card after/while being an asshole.

Oh, you must mean Pontius Pilatus.

Wish the Roman Empire never fell.
