Comment on What's the term for someone that likes Jesus of Nazareth, but doesn't identify with church, religious dogma, or whatever?

There is a lot of good messaging in the Bible, the Quran, the Torah, etc. You don’t need to be religious to appreciate that. Just like how somebody who appreciates in the mission and words of The Amazing Randy does not need a special label.

The labels start to come into play when discussing your belief or disbelief in a god or gods.

Yep! I was trying to find a short way of describing my situation in this area when asked about it.

  While not a term maybe a short blurb like “While I am not religious, I admire many of the lessons of Jesus as portrayed in the Bible, and I try to model parts of my life after his example.”
  
  If applicable you can also add “Along with others I consider to be positive examples for leading a good and virtuous life.”

  I’m assuming we’re talking about the late, great, Randy Savage. So, their spelling is correct. Oooh yeah!
