30. I'm going to vote no

You can be an atheist who believes and follows many of the teachings of christ, but that does not make you a christian.

To be a Christian, you have to believe in god and christ. That is the basis of the religion.

That is what makes it a religion.

Actually, the only requirement for a membership in the christian club is the belief that Jesus is the son of god and that he died for your sins.

Without that belief, though, you are not a Christian.
