Your religion?
I know it can be a touchy subject at times, though I think it shouldn't have to be.


Im Catholic and I attend church (almost) every Sunday. I feel I have to gain more discipline in doing so.
All of our family is Catholic, except for my aunt and her family. We have a rosary during some festivities and though she doesn't participate with us, she's still there supporting us.

I guess i am as they say a Born Again Christian.....I have accepted Jesus as my Saviour......We attend a non denominational church and we do try to attend every week. I teach the preschoolers one Sunday a month and i love it.

My family wasn't very religious but my mother was always open to me attending church with friends. I don't remember it becoming an important part of my life until i was about 23.

Take care,
Jodie

I'm a Catholic aetheist.

Yes, I'm aware that sounds weird.

I was raised Catholic. I went to Catholic schools. I received all the sacraments. I'm raising DD in the Catholic church. What can I say? I really like the religion and the community. I consider being Catholic like a heritage, similar to a nationality. Being Catholic is apart of who I am.

I think religion in general is a good social experience. I like the moral reminders and opportunities to do good works through the church. Of all the religions out there that meet on a regular basis, I relate most to Catholicism. If I could meet with a group of Buddhists on a regular basis, that would probably more align with my spiritual sense but that's not available to me.

Yes, I have explored other religions.

As for the belief in God thing, I'm an aetheist. When we're dead, we're dead.

Interesting though, both of my parents had after-death experiences. My Mom flatlined and was revived by doctors. She said it was horrible - dark, shadowy, scary, etc. My Mom was mentally ill and a tortured soul. However, I don't think she qualified to go to hell! My Dad died and was revived by paramedics. He said the experience was wonderful. When he revived his first thoughts were very angry because he liked where he had been and he didn't want to come back to this earthly existence. He said all his worries washed away and he was filled with a overwhelming sense of love. Of course, he was the parent who still attended the Catholic church long after he had anyone to go with him (kids to take, my mom stopped going, etc.) My take on God is, if one exists, s/he will understand and smile on me.

We are evangelical Christians. We are members of a presbyterian church which is in the process of becoming a member church of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA). We attend services weekly. Dh is an elder and I am the assistant to the Sunday school superintendent and Vice President of the Ladies Aid. Neither dh or I were raised in Christian homes, we both got saved as adults.

I was raised American Baptist and am currently Methodist.

Dh was raised Methodist.

We attend a Methodist church with our boys. However, we're going to be church shopping soon as changes are coming to the church that we don't agree with. My dh does not like the new pastor, so that is a factor also. We're not going to restrict our shopping, so I'm not really sure where we will end up - we want a good, solid program for the boys so that will be important in our consideration.

Presbyterian! I grew up in the church I am at now!!
I am a Deacon as well!! Tho since I started getting sick with being preggo
We have not gone!! Tho before that we were there weekly!! I am abit fruistrated with the people there at the moment cause I am being critised sinc my kids have not been there!! they are wanting to be with me!!
my kids do learn at home and last year they missed 3 times 2 for being sick and 1 we went on a family trip!!
others who are never there they get oh yea your here!! and no one says anything to them!! so These days I am a bit down on some of the people there!! others have said they understand!! its the ones who are trying to make me feel bad about the kids not being there!!!
