Before I begin my question I want to state two things:
1. I am ignorant (have little education in Christianity)
2. Can we please keep out biblical passages

My simplified version of a Christian is someone who believe in the existence of Jesus and his teachings.

Can one be a Christian and not believe or have doubt in god? After all isn't Jesus the son of God? Doesn't Christianity subscribe to a theology?

Is it possible to be a Christian and not subscribe to a diety? An-jel posted a thread on Christian-Agnosticism, but I can't reply with the intelligence I want to because I need a better understanding of Christianity. There seems to be a lot of Christians on this site with a wide spectrum of belief.

Is Christianity a faith based theology or is it just that you believe that Jesus existed and carried a 'moral' message or is it something in between?
