*Generalising*
Sounds like it might just be a kid who has believed in Christainity for a long time, found out that they believe in witchcraft too but doesnt want to give up one belief for another.

That would depend on your thoughts as to how the Devil came to be.
Some people actually believe there is no God at all and that there is only the Devil.
Others believe in said God and believe in said Devil, but call themselves satanists and only worship the Devil.

To be a Satanic Christian or Satanic Catholic you would have to follow two religions, one dealing with worship of a God who is supposedly kind and anti-sins, and the other who is the Devil that is aimed toward being a sinning psycho thing.

Conflict of interest I do believe is the correct term?

Are you speaking of the bible when you say the Word of God? So I'm not supposed to question the bible...which is the word of God...because it says so...and God says 'Don't question it'.....

Sorry, I just can't accept that circular logic. The bible was translated and re-printed numerous times in the days before CD-ROMs. Pardon me if I pick and choose. If that makes me non-christian, so be it.

Qoji, if you don't respect and follow a religion's basis then how can you say you are a member of that religion?
To say that is like...if I called myself intelligent.
Just because I wouldn't mind being intelligent doesn't make me intelligent...I'm not that stupid to think I'm intelligent just due to wishing to be it even though I don't meet the requirements.

I don't know how, but I get away with it. You can believe it or don't.

The definition of intelligence is pretty much agreed upon by everyone. The definition of christianity...requires a bit more thought.

Everybody seems to be forgetting the fallibility of humanity. I can call myself a Christian and still sin or not agree with some of it's doctrines.

I always believed the core of Christianity was 'No one shall get to the Father but through me'- Jesus, his only begotten son who died on the cross for the sins of all. Whoever believes this shall not perish but have eternal life.....

I no longer believe this to be the core belief to Christianity. I tend to feel it is the ethic of reciprocity, which is found in the scriptures of most religions.
