12. We do in our house and we are very progressive with our political views.

I do not necessarily call the 'church attendees' in my area Christians. Where I live voted 83% for the former guy and is as brainwashed as any area anywhere. To my wife and myself, having faith in Jesus has nothing to do with visiting what we call 'right wing training centers'. At one time we were members of a local congregation but while we were sitting in the pews the inner alarm warnings of what was being preached and taught kept going off. I have as much faith in the teachings of Jesus, whom I consider sent from God to instruct us how to be, and read my bible daily. We are in the process of producing music and videos because we feel that it is our calling to give as good a representation of Jesus as we can. I also believe that all people have a right to their own beliefs. Jesus told the apostles to be ready with an answer if someone asked. I take that to mean that we should never force our own creeds upon others but if asked answer in kind.
