  • I wondered how may people who are religious actually practice there religion. I am an atheist so I do ot have a clue. I don't want this to turn into a religious debate. If I did this would be in other chat. Just a yes a no & a description of what you do will suffice.

  • I'm not sure if they will allow this but I don't practice a relgeon. I believe in a god but I don't beleive in heaven and hell. I believe that god is more like a greek god rather then create-the-world type god. If that make sense.

    I think talking about religion and politics is against the rules. Well anway, I don't practice religion and I don't believe in any gods or stuff.

    Actually, I don't think the rules say that we can't discuss religion. We just have to be sure to be respectful of each other and avoid a flame war. I do practice religion, although my beliefs are not exactly the same as the church that I attend. But I do believe in God, pray a few times a day and all that good stuff.

  • You're right, ryan. It's not against the rules but we have to keep a more scrutinous eye on these sort of topics.

    Anyway, I am a Christian by birth, but to answer your question, I am also one by choice. I have gone through the process of questioning and universal, paradoxical angst that we all do and have come out with the conclusion of retaining and strengthening my faith. I look forward to learning how to expertly profess my beliefs.

    Anyway, keep it civil. I've no qualms about ending this if it gets hateful.

  • I do. It gives me a little bit of security, I think. And I think it's true. I think. Maybe. ^^;

  • I am a Catholic, and yes, I do practise my religion. Otherwise, I wouldn't be going to a Catholic school, now would I? My family is a very religious family. I remember waking up at 6 in the morning to say the rosary with my granparents.

    I am Christian and practice religion. I do believe in God, obviously... Why is this a topic to discuss? It'll only bring controversy and judgemental anger. But that's just me... I can't believe I used that big of words... O.O

    It won't if it is heavily monitored.

    I'll do my best. But all the turmoil tends to happen when I'm offline. Maybe someone should report this just as a cautionary measure to the uppers <_<;

  • I'm a Christian, and I'm extremely proud of it too! In order to grow religously, I read my bible every day, pray every day, and attend church on Sundays and Wensdays. I've also joined the Expressive Worship Team and Puppet Ministry at the church I attend and have became a First Priority Leader at school and the Chaplin of the Beta Club.
    However, I not a Christian by birth... Sure, I've been going to church nearly all my life and my Grandpa was a Preacher, but I go to Church willingly with my Aunt and Cousin since my parents don't go...
    Okay... I shut up now... :dead:

  • I'm Jewish by birth, but I don't practice it that much. I feel like my beliefs are constantly switching between agnosticism, meaning that I believe in the existance of a higher power but religion is not necessary to connect with it, and atheism, meaning that I do not believe in any supernatural power or beings whatsoever. I can never seem to settle on one of those two, and it can trouble me sometimes.

    @_@ There's no need to be so worried about this turning into a debate thread or something. there's ALWAYS a staff member nearby to close it so don't make a mountain out of a molehill. Jesus.. :/

    No, I don't practice religion and I don't plan to. lol. I was born a christian, but I just don't find it interesting no more. ^_^ Religion is too boring for me, and there's all these rules I don't want to follow. lol. So yeah.. ._.;

    I'll make my words yours, because that's exactly why I dont practice any religion.

    And I don't believe in God.
