Not asking for belief, but rather which you find most culturally and intellectually appealing. 
non practicing catholic, the way it's done in Quebec. :)
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.

Which Christian denomination should be burned at the stake?
But if you want the most historically correct answer (in the sense of the ones that did get burned at the stake) go with the Gnostics.

I'd say Anabaptists.
















Delicious. :)

11 poll choices for different brands of protestantism, really?

I do prefer the term "mainline" Catholic over "mainstream" Catholic, anyway.  It sorta gives it a Tarantino IV-drug-use-is-kinda-cool-and-hip-as-long-as-you-manage-it-properly appeal.

I had you for a plain "Roman Catholic" kind of guy. Either that or just One True Church.

There is only One True Church with its home office in Rome, and I am nestled in the Love of Her Bosom.

"Mainline" sounds nice, though.

Papists are the best in the sack.

At least it gave an opening for one of the all time best lines.

You Catholic girls start much too late. Sooner or later it comes down to fate. I might as well, will be the one

It's "Mainline Protestant" rather than "Mainstream Protestant", Mainline seems less like an endorsement for some reason.

"Dysthymia?  Did they get some student from the University of Chicago with a hard-on for ancient Bactrian cities to name this?  I feel cheated."


Queequeg

It's use as an adjective more or less synonymous with mainstream is common knowledge.  I didn't even know it could be used for drug usage.

I thought it had to do with ship rigging.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
