Can a Christian Be Furry

Note: Ask Papa Bear, a furry Advice columnist, contacted the moderators on Christian Furry Fellowship Discord server asking for letters on how Christians explain its ok to be a Christian.

Why Christian furs.

A good friend challenged me at one of our fur meets. He ask why Christian furs. As I thought about it, it was a good question why.

The thing is I could not come up with a good answer at the time.  As I look back, perhaps he and I lack of clarity is we Christians integrate the fandom and Christianity. Second, we as Christians are the light of the Gospel, even to the furry community. Finally, we share a distinctive relationship as brothers and sisters in Christ that transcends and become part of the fandom we belong. This can be I see similar beliefs amongst Christian Science Fiction and Anime fans. I am also not discounting the question was asked as more to opposition to Christianity or that Christians chose to identify themselves publicly.
