How many Christians do not believe in God?

[Please check all that apply; for this poll "Christian" means "any religion which is based on Jesus Christ teachings"]

The reason for this poll is a survey made in 2006 in Russia targeting Orthodox Christians. The poll results were: 58% called themselves Christians, BUT:

- 60% of them have never read the Bible (the survey doesn't make it clear whether they never read the whole Bible, or never ever opened it);

- 42% have never been in church;

- 8% are not sure whether the God exists;

- and 1% believes that God does not exist.

Obviously all of them called themselves Christians.

However the survey claims that foreign surveys says that those numbers are much greater from Catholic Christians, and Protestant Christians. Just wonder whether it is true.

Personally I have no idea how could you be a Christian, and be not sure whether the God exists.

Just another example of how religion in general, and Christianity in particular is full of hypocrites and liars.

Your poll wont prove/show/demonstrate anything.

2 BITS....4 BITS....6 BITS....A DOLLAR!....ALL FOR THE GATORS....STAND UP AND HOLLER!!!!

its interesting that you got a similar result of about 10% of Chrsitians being not sure of gods existence. What this does indicate is that when polls show how many people are Christian they may be overstating the numbers. Possibly some popele ccall themselves christian because of cultural upbringing rathher than belief.

Nothing new here.

Matthew 7:21-23 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!"
