It confuses me how some religious people can pick and choose what they want to believe in. Surely you don't have a choice?
I have lots of family and friends who are religious. Infact I was brought up a christian and went to a C of E primary school. One thing I notice a lot is how they pick and choose what they want to believe and what they don't want to believe. Is this common amongst christians and catholics in this country?
Are you still catholic if you have sex before marriage? Are you still a christian if you're gay? How can you be catholic and believe in horoscopes? Is it possible for you to believe in evolution and still be religious? Or be a big science fiction nerd? :D Or even follow a religion created by a big science fiction nerd?

I think some parts of the Bible certainly are ignored, basically as they're old Jewish laws, govering a totally different culture at a different time. But I've no real understanding of all this, so I'll go no further than pointing people to The Brick Testament, a website which acts out scenes from the Bible in Lego. The section on "The Law" is actually pretty funny.
It's all open to interpretation and emphasis, really. Just look at the way there are different sects of Christianity and Islam.
I'll be skeptical until I see any real proof of anything, but it does still intrigue me. Documentaries on the Gnostic gospels, archaeology in the Holy Land etc can be oddly interesting...

I dont think it's possible to follow everything to the letter. I can only assume the ideal is you follow things as closely as possible.
I'm feeling quotey today

I would have thought not. It'd odd, having gone to church a few times in preparation for the wedding, I'm finding myself starting to wonder if it's all true - if I actually believe.
If I do believe, what do I actually believe in? The entire contents of the bible? Which version?
In answer to your question, I've no idea. Sorry.
