According to the doctrine, accepting Jesus as the son of god, accepting the trinity/godhead of the father, son and holy ghost as the same god. Also I believe it was loving god with all your heart and soul.

well i believe in all three and all REAL christians do believe in the holy trinity.

Agreeing with some moron who sees the fact bananas are easy to eat as evidence for the existence of a deity while ignoring the fact that coconuts and pineapples are not all that easy to eat, asking embarrassingly ignorant questions such as, "If we evolved from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?", murdering your children if they're disobedient, hating homosexuals because your parents told you you're supposed to, advocating slavery, holding sexist beliefs that women are not entitled to speak in church, gain employment as a teacher or have a position of authority over any man...those are all qualities of a true Christian.

doesnt that depend on wat denomination of christian u r cos in most churches women can speak, become teachers (including sunday school ones) and can have authority.

Some christians accept gays cos its their choice and we cant force them against their will as it wouldnt be right. My church do not agree with the pope on many things such as homosexuals and sexism against women as i am a girl but still hold authority in my place of worship we can still put our views across but accept others too.

I see. So you deny the writings of Paul and the teachings of Christ, yet you call yourself a Christian. Why? Why are you ignoring the Bible? Why are you disobeying God? You're not a Christian, you're a cult member.

I know that this is gonna sound stupid and blaspheming, and wrong, but being christian is loving and having a realtionship with the God and jesus. no I do not mean, snogging, sexy love, but the type in the bibloe, unconditional, self sacrificial love. the "love is patient, love is kind..." type of love. Also believing in God is kinda vital!

"Also believing in God is kinda vital!"

Belief in a god is only vital to those who are too weak to make their own decisions and look towards an invisible deity to offer them "guidance". Nothing more than a child with an imaginary friend.

lots of people would call this personal opinion but its the relationship and believing in the holy trinity

Side: A reationship with God

what makes a christian a true christian is believing in god, and christ being the son of god, and following that god. and that's about it. it doesn't matter what else in thier beliefs.
