avs, I was raised a Baptist but now attend a Methodist church. Very similar.

As for your religion, certainly no one would "hate" you for it or make fun of you. We were all raised differently and that is pe

I was raised Catholic, but at present am not a practicing one due to some of the teachings of this Church. Actually I am a very spiritual person, pray daily, and incorporate ideals from most of the religions in the above poll.

Same! Also, I find a lot(not all but a lot) of them being hypocrites who even go to church out of obligation these days... I dont see any improvements despite preachings and all, and worse! A lot loves to condemn others cuz of their beliefs/faults/etc...

So I quit, not on God but any religion structure. I still am spiritual in a way, and I do a lot of good. I still believe in God, but for me, as long as Im not doing anything evil, I dont need too many rules here and there...

Am of course planning somewhere along the road to try a new one... maybe Buddhist, heard its cool, or find one that I find satisfying for me. If not, its ok... Sadly, no Buddhism community here.

Yes, I heard about this. I saw some of them when I am going to school (then), but I haven't seen one lately. I have a friend here who is a Mormon, and we get along just fine. Wink

So avs, are you going to visit the Philippines one day?

I am born Catholic, but I knew I was a bit of a rebel. When I was small I don't like to go to church. Now I miss going to church. But I pray alot to God everyday, and always try to do good.

I've always found this to be a great tool:

http://www.selectsmart.com/RELIGION/

It's a religion selector. You select your beliefs in the various questions and it tells you what your religion is most like, based on the principles of that religion. Most people have found it to be fairly accurate.

I was born into the Baptist church and was baptised by total immersion as a young girl. After I was married there was no Baptist church near our home and some good friends of ours asked us to join them at church so we transferred our membership to the Methodist Church. I have respect for all religions and practice mine in my own way that doesn't always mean I attend the church services.

I took the test and my results said I should be Bahai (100%) and second a liberal Quaker (92%). I have never considered either of these! hmmm

I am a Christian. I have always attended Baptist churches but I do not like to call myself "religious" because that term would seem to indicate more of what humans try to do to reach God. For me, belief in Christ and following his teachings in the Bible are the major components of my faith.

I'm not a good person and could never be good enough to work my way into God's good graces. For me, it's all about faith and a personal relationship with Jesus.

I'm with you rupe! Always gone to a non-denomenational church. My belief and faith in Christ is from the Bible. It's all about having a relationship with him. Trusting him (even with the twins) no matter what.

my mouth!

That questionaire asked my beliefs, not what I do Grin

All of my Dad's family were Catholic, my Grandad left the church when my Dad was a boy. He did not want my Dad anywhere near a Catholic Church. My Mom and I have determined over the years why he did not want my Dad to go near the Catholic Church. (My Dad had five older sisters.)

My Mom started taking me to the First Baptist Church when I was five and I joined at age eight, still a member there. My Dad later followed us in joining the FBC.

As Jaypee said, "I'm a bit of a rebel" and tend to do things my own way. I do not adhere to all their strictness, that is the ones that can't be seen in the light of day! Hypocrites there, yes! We don't go for that reason, or non-reason, we go for ourselves. We feel better after attending church on Sunday. Each person will have to stand for themselves on judgment day.

P.S. We'd both make better Methodists Grin
