Which is why I don't like to use the word religion as it applies
to Christianity. Religion is a belief system - a set of rules - 
a doctrine to follow. Christianity is the following of Jesus
the Christ - period.

Now churches (denominations) have made it into a religion. I
point people to Jesus, though, and not 'church.'
