About Me

"But you've abandoned Christianity, haven't you?" "No, no. I am still a Christian. It's just that...' He stopped. Then a look of resignation came into his eyes, suggesting that he could not convey his feelings in words. 'It's just that... I don't believe in the Christianity the Padres preach." - The Samarai, by Shusaku Endo

You’re St. Justin Martyr!

You have a positive and hopeful attitude toward the world. You think that nature, history, and even the pagan philosophers were often guided by God in preparation for the Advent of the Christ. You find “seeds of the Word” in unexpected places. You’re patient and willing to explain the faith to unbelievers.

Find out which Church Father you are at The Way of the Fathers!

My life is pretty much rediculous. If I were you I'd be pretty damn jealous. www.acmnp.com www.xanterra.com www.coolworks.com
You scored as Neo orthodox. You are neo-orthodox. You reject the human-centredness and scepticism of liberal theology, but neither do you go to the other extreme and make the Bible the central issue for faith. You believe that Christ is God's most important revelation to humanity, and the Trinity is hugely important in your theology. The Bible is also important because it points us to the revelation of Christ. You are influenced by Karl Barth and P T Forsyth.
