It doesn't make any sense to call yourself a Christian and then do things that are blatantly un-Christian and easily avoidable. Just because you can repent for your sins, doesn't mean you can just go around acting like an immoral hooligan.

I think you misunderstood what I was trying to say. I wasn't saying that what you did was wrong, and I wasn't talking about you specifically, but more posing a question that I have wanted an answer to for a long time. In my experience, I have found that people take their religion too lightly. Like when a religious person does something that blatantly goes against their religion, they don't feel guilty or anything becaue they can just repent for their sins. I guess I don't understand what the point of being religious is at all.
Also, what are your faith ideas?
PS. I didn't disrespect your faith. If this is really how you took it, I'm sorry. I didn't mean anything by it.

That's rather hypocritical coming from a Christian, wouldn't you say?

christians aren't perfect, and we don't pretend to be either.
