If Jesus was sinless like I believe, then he couldn't have made something to cause others to sin. He also drank it at the last supper.

IMO, Baptist miss this here, although I understand where they are coming from. Drinking alcohol is not a sin, drinking to excess is though.

Seventh Day Adventist have the Saturday as the sabbath correct, IMO.

Jews have the correct feasts. ETC.

So no, I don't think my religion is correct, since I don't really have a definitive religion.

I am a member at a Baptist church, but I wouldn't call myself a true Baptist.
That's kinda hard to pin down, SpottedDog. You speak a lot about "Truth"--and I certainly respect your obviously firmly held beliefs. But you seem to suggest that this Truth can only be found on your own, not through one religion or the other.

And that leads me to wonder...if Truth is so readily available, why hasn't one religion found it, after all this time?
