Budhism, [Orthodox] Judaism, and Mennonite are all lifestyles, Christianity is a belief and a religion. Anyone anywhere can be a Christian, no matter what the lifestyle, language, or nationality or any other restricting factors. To be Mennonite you must shun electricity. To be Jewish you must eat kosher food (for religious reasons, however). To be Budhist you must be with all that "at peace" stuff. Which is all fine. It leads those people good, healthy, and truthful lives. But that doesn't mean it leads them to Heaven.
And sandmann, you present all religion as false. What am I doing that you're not doing, just opposite? So everything I've witnessed as a Christian has just been fake, a huge elaborate lie? HA! What a twat.
But whatever. "Let him who does wrong continue to do wrong; let him who is vile continue to be vile; let him who does right continue to do right; and let him who is holy continue to be holy." Revelations 22: 11
Do what you like.
