Its difficult to be in your shoe on this one because if anyone asked me such questions at an interview I'd have to conclude that the interviewer is way underqualified to interview me and I'd be wondering why I was submitting myself to such stupidity and I'd probably tell the interviewer so.

exactly!! what kind of question is this?!

@OP
the only possible reply should be:" there are many religious people in Nigeria and anyone has the right to worship whatever they want to worship... my religious beliefs shouldnt even matter here, as it wont impair/enhance my working abilities."

IF YOU ANSWER ANYHOW YOU LOSE.
SO I'D SAY I HAVE NO RELIGION BUT I'M A PRACTICING CHRISTIAN.
IF THE SCREENER LOOKS LIKE MUHAMMAD I'D SAY NICE THINGS ABOUT ISLAM TOO BECAUSE RELIGIOUS DIFFERENCES CAN COST ONE A LOT IN THIS COUNTRY.

Nice one
Re: If You've Being Asked This Question How Can U Answer It? by Dani93(m): 4:31pm On May 14, 2020
Yes
I agree with you
This is how I answer them that day

Yes I understand the perspective that say Christianity is not a religion
But is a conviction, a believe and is a way of life
At the same perspective if we are being asked we do say we are Christian, Because is what we practice. Is what we know, is what we believe .
So, at this point as a smart young graduate, I chuck in some big big English and end the Question , he look at me and smile that's all.

Response: Sir, I believe the Lord Jesus Christ is the only Way, Truth and Life. And no one that hasn't accepted Jesus as Lord and Saviour can enter God's dwelling place.

Sir, James 1:27 tells us that there is a pure religion. And I believe that's Christianity. grin

How is Christianity not a religion?

First of all, what is religion?
Isn't religion the believe in a dirty or God?
Don't Christians believe in God?

What are characteristics of a religion?
1. Believe in God or a god.
2. Place of worship.
3. Days of worship.
4. Books of worship. etc.

Does christian have those characteristics? If yes, then how isn't it a religion.

I am a Christian and I believe Christianity is a religion... The true religion..

Perhaps the interviewer is a practising Christian who believes Christianity is not a religion but a relationship with Jesus Christ.

James 1:27 tells us there is a pure and undefiled religion.
