A million years of evolution, we get danny quayle

It seems like more and more lately I want to deny that I'm a Christian. To be honest, I've come to the realization that I'm not a Christian, but merely a follower of Jesus. I don't fit the Christian mold and I've been struggling with that for about the past five - six years. Maybe it's because I was not raised in church and therefore I hold many "secular" views. However most if not all the things I believe in I have tested against the bible and what I believe is not wrong when tested against what Jesus shared.
Today a co-worker asked me about the verse I have tattooed on my wrist [1 John 4:19 "We love others because He first loved us."] and he then asked me if I was a "Jesus Freak". I asked him what he meant by "Jesus Freak" and responded that that means I am one. I simply asked for a clear definition, because it seems increasingly that the closer we get to November's election, the "freaks" come out and I want to purposely push myself as far away from them as possible. I felt that it was my duty to put myself as far away from that group of people in order to keep myself a decent representation of Christ.
I would like to set clear a few things. (1) I am not a Uptight, close-minded, right-wing, republican. (2) I am not Homophobic and along with that (3) I don't believe that giving homosexuals their GOD given right and American liberty threatens in anyway a "traditional" marriage. (4) I believe that there is more to a relationship than hurrying to get married (which is usually a reason to rush to "consummate" the marriage) and have children.

I must go now before I get myself into any more trouble. Until next time good luck exploring the Infinite Abyss
