Huh. What do you mean by "structured forgiveness"? The whole "accept Christ and you'll be forgiven" thing?

An organized religion, with a list of rules and a fairly clear-cut "This is good, this is bad" and how to fix it when you've already messed up. Of course, a huge number of people who "accept Christ" in this particular culture already were Christians by belief, and rebellious by nature. It's just a matter of deciding to "be good" from then on. It's hard not to grow up a Christian, at least in basic cultural outlook, in this country.

Hm. I sort of see what you mean. Although, I probably am one of these people, so. :/ But I prefer to live by my own interpretation of the bible, not someone else's.

I didn't say there was anything *wrong* with it. Some of my best friends are Christians. It's just that most people who aren't of an extremely conservative version never really know how many people are actually reached (and not just amused or infuriated) by Chick tracts.
