i really appreciated your family tale...and while i also disagree that 
christianity is a cult, there seems to be such a fine line in certain 
churches. sometimes the actions and flamboyant nature of the tbn people and 
televangelists and various charismatic churches just flat-out scares me. i 
used to think it was because satan was turning me from the truth (like satan 
would want anything to do with me?) but now i realize that it's just plain 
scary.

christian culture isn't a *bad* thing, it's just...well, your porn analogy 
fits perfectly. it's very limited, and sometimes i think christianity 
shouldn't be. limiting oneself just seems to go against the purpose of 
following christ (imho). i think being critical without disowning it (if you 
are a believer), and not limiting yourself and not buying into the bookstore 
believer mentality is fine.
