Is Taylor Swift a Christian?

Is Taylor Swift a Christian?  Recently, in a fan forum, the mega million seller, wrote a message to her fans on a forum on her website: "Just wanted to remind you guys that let's try to avoid topics and conversations that lean towards political or religious topics. In the end, someone will inevitably get offended and this just isn't the place for that."

However, we do get hints that she has a Christian background. The lyrics for her single "Our Song," for example, contain a prayer reference: "And when I got home, before I said amen/ I asked God if He could play it again."  

Further, she enrolled in the Aaron Academy's homeschooling service, which has a strong Christian ethos, for her final two years of high school. She has given $250,000 to Christian schools around the country. Her younger brother, further, is a student at the University of Notre Dame, a Catholic research university.

But regardless, she certainly has the approval of Christian parents around the U.S. and even high-ranking Catholic officials have sung her praises. The Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Minneapolis-St. Paul wrote of her:"It is refreshing to find a popular, musical role model who is focused on friends, friendship and family values." 

Most obvious is that Swift stood up to her record label execs to get Christian band NeedtoBreathe to go on tour with her.
