I consider myself a Christian, but I don’t believe what’s written in the Bible to the letter. How can I when two separate translations can interpret the same words in different ways? How can I when a lot of it wasn’t written by eye witnesses. It’s a wonderful historical document and an excellent guide to how we should live our lives and what kind of people we should be, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s free from mistake. We’re all human, even those who wrote the Bible, and as humans we can make mistakes. That doesn’t mean that the Bible is less of a valid document or less relevant to me.

I think that being a follower of Jesus (and therefore God) today has never been further from what a lot of people call being “Christian”. I think that it is meant to be living in each moment in the presence of our Father (which is possible because of what Jesus did).

I believe that Jesus was born from a virgin called Mary through the Holy Spirit and therefore God’s son. I don’t understand why Matthew chapter 1 in the Bible would list the “genealogy of Jesus”. If Jesus’ father is God and Mary was a virgin, then he has no genetic link or ancestry to Joseph’s side of the family and therefore is not genetically a descendent of David or Abraham. It’s a bit confusing. Maybe it means that Jesus is a spiritual son of Abraham and David?

I’m a Christian but I believe that worrying about Biblical detail is basically un-Christian.  2 reasons for this:

1) As Christians, we’re followers of Jesus Christ.  He took His guidance mainly from His relationship with God the Father, not from the scriptures, and He didn’t seem to worry about details like who was Cain’s wife etc?  He took God’s Word and made it relevant to the people of His day. 

He also made it possible through the New Covenant for us to have a direct relationship with God and we should be trying to copy His example and listen to what God has to say to us, rather than worrying about the Bible’s accuracy.

2) Following the Bible too literally can lead to some prejudices that are completely wrong in today’s world. They can make us intolerant and unloving.  Jesus stood against these things and, again, it is important that we take His example of love and compassion, rather than live out the prejudices and values of peoples from thousands of years past.

I think that it is wrong to call yourself a Christian if you don’t believe about the Virgin Birth. Who said we have any right to counter the word of the Bible?

Also, I find it particularly frustrating when people who have no belief in God go accusing Mary of unbelievable things. If they don’t believe in God that is their problem, but they don’t have to go ruining the lives of other people.

god set natural laws that still work—one such law is that it takes a man and a women to             bring new life into the world that is still true today wheater artificul insimunation or intercourse, ther is now or ever has been any other way its a god law-virgins dont get pregnet without a man being involved and thats the truth

I don´t belong to religion, but I believe in God, The Virgin Mary and Jesus.

I think that is not a coincidence that God had choosen to Mary as the Mother of Jesus.

I think The Virgin Mary is really special and She is our Mother.

The Virgin Mary left us many teachings.
SHE accepted the will of God with absolutely love, and this is really great, because the man (in general men and women)do what they want and they live in the proud and egotism.

The Virgin Mary and Jesus are the best examples in accepting the Will of God with love.
