[quote="nucklepunche"]This particular topic is generally relevant to Christian PoFo members. It is generally irrelevant to atheists. I'm not neccessarily trying to start a religious debate, I'm just trying to gauge the "flavors" of PoFo Christians.
1. What branch of Christianity are you part of? (Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, other)?
Evangelical Catholic/Augsburgian Catholic. In common parlance: Confessional Lutheran.
2. Are you a classical trinitarian? (You believe in one whole God comprised of three persons, Father, Son, Holy Ghost/Spirit).
Yes. All Christians are. Those that reject the Trinity, are not Christians.
3.Do you believe in multiple paths to God or the exclusivity of Christ?
There is only one Way, one Truth, and One who is Life: Jesus Christ. Outside of Him is only darkness, death, and despair.
4. Do you believe Hell is a real, physical place? If so do you believe it is eternal or temporary.
It is real, yes. And a physical place.
Well, it is not real YET, but it WILL be.
5. Are Christianity and belief in evolution compatible?
I have no strong, set-in-stone opinion on this matter.
6. What are your views on the relationship between Christianity and homosexuality?
Practicing homophilia is a sin, just as any other sin the Bible condemns. That means: Homophiles can be Christians, but cannot engage in homophilia.
7. Predestination or free will? (Or something else entirely).
Single predestination. Our will is corrupt, so we cannot just randomly decide to "choose God". Our nature won't let us. If we are to say "yes" to God, then He has to call us first. That's when we have a choice.
8. What are your views on eschatology (end times theology)?
Not sure. I do know, though, that I despise the popularized view that has become presented to the world as "the Christian view", while it is nothing of the sort. It is biblical literalism at its most insane.
9. Do you support the ecumenical movement?
To a degree. But not at all costs.
10. How does your faith relate to your political ideology?
It is at the very core of my being, and thus affects my political views as well.

så tø'r det med blod,
så tit det gælder kampen for Danmark."
