No.Limberger responds:
Which Christian denomination represents the "real Christian
faith"?  Let's see, that could be one of the following:
Roman Catholic, Episcopalian, Lutheran, Presbyterian,
Mormon, Church of Christ, Church of God, Evangelical,
Pentecostal, Baptist, Southern Baptist, and the list
just goes on and on and on ad nauseum.

MD Shrugs:
I had every manner of religious faith around me, we were baptized and taught
to pray and told bible stories, my Grandmother is deeply religious and my
mother insist my Atheism is a phase I'll grow out of (hmm, I'll be 36 this
year, after 20 years you'd think I'd grow out of it already!) Had a
girlfriend who was trying to find a church and we tried them all. 

I could of course argue that Christians have never been truly introduced to
logic and reason because faith clouds their minds. I don't, because I am
respectful of other peoples beliefs and ideas so long as they don't impose
on my own, and I'm willing to say that if one day someone proves god exist,
I'll shrug and go "okay, you got me." I would also say that I don't believe
in the above statement, I believe that some people need faith an so as long
as they need it I wouldn't argue that it's wrong, only that I don't share
it.
