Absolutely not! Such arrogance and self-righteousness. There are many morally upright people who do NOT subscribe to the Christian faith who live more rigtheous lives than those who have embraced Christianity. The history of Christian practice (e.g: the Crusades), is littered and polluted with immoral practices against fellow Christians and those of other faiths, or of none.
Pagans, Wiccans, Buddhists, Hindus, Sikhs; all have a much higher regard for human and animal life, than those who glory in bloodshed as the basis of their faith. As a former Minister with the Church of Scotland and previously a Lay Preacher in the Methodist tradition, I was glad to abandon the dark ways of the "Spirit" and accept my liberation, by becoming a Pagan. I became a vegetarian, so as to avoid distress to animals. I do not buy cut flowers, only potted plants and trees.
Live and let live! Be of service to those in need, not because your own karma will be improved but because you will improve the karma of those you are of service to.
