I believe there is a God and I pray but I am way to introverted to take my beliefs to a church.
-
I am spiritual - I believe in God, Jesus, the holy spirit, the bible but I am not religious and I have no use for attending church. Tried many times over the years but too political I would rather worship on my own.
-
Yes, I have a Ministry
-
Yes I'm Catholic. Still going to church for service and I like it.
-
I am religious. I believe that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior.
-
Yes of course
-
I believe there is a higher power and I still cling to some of the catholic beliefs. However I don't go to church.
-
Yes Jesus Christ is Lord of Lords and King of Kings as well as King of my life!!
-
Yes, I am religious if that means I am a Christian, and for those who stated they are but do not attend church then they are not religious because God said "when two are more gather in my name",.
-
God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, the bible and the church is a major part of my life.

Heb 10:25 New International Version
not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another--and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
-
I am irreligious, because I believe in rational thinking and if there is a proof that we are not alone then I might reconsider.
-
No!
-
Yes,of course.I am Orthodox.
-
I am not religious but I have nothing against it. I do kind of have something against organized religion. Most people are just there for show.
-
I'm a Christian and I go to church most Sundays, sing in the choir, serve on Boards. I consider the members to be my church family and we support each other. We don't do it for "show."
-
I'm not religious but I do have a relationship with Jesus Christ. For me, there is a difference.
-
I was raised a Catholic but, my "taste" for the Catholic church took a nose dive years ago when they refused to let my severely asthmatic child learn his "religious" lessons at home. I felt they made the choice for me to disown them - although I will never turn my back on God - with or without a church!!
-
yes god is great
-
I have faith in the Almighty God, Jesus His son, and the Holy Spirit.
If you mean do have "religious practices", no.
I have faith that is always there....in church, in home, in the grocery store.
:rose:
-
no
-
I was baptized Catholic and believe very much in God and Jesus. I pray every night but I don't go to church. I would like to though, I did when I was a child.
-
I'm a Born Again Christian. I believe in the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior.
-
Yes. I respect religion of every type.

6265AT99, Have you ever considered looking for a different Catholic parish to attend? Even though the Catholic church is universal, you still are dealing with other human beings with human faults and clashing personalities. That doesn't make the Church bad, but some parishes or priests or administrators tend to be less personable or accommodating. Again, that is a flaw in the individuals, not the Church as a whole. I've known many people over the years who have had bad experiences at one parish and rather than leave the Church, have chosen a different parish where they thrived and felt like a part of the family.
I understand and respect the people who feel a sense of individual spirituality, but I would feel absolutely LOST without a parish family -- especially since I have my parish family to thank for introducing me to my wife and my resulting nuclear family!

It's complicated. When I was younger, I definitely was. I went to Catholic school all my life, went to church and prayed often. Then as I got older, I began to lose my faith. I gave up on God and declared myself an Atheist. But then something amazing happened. I met a man who I feel deeply in love with, but he lived in another state. Long-distance was a struggle, so we decided it was best for me to move up to where he lived. I began to apply for jobs, and got a call from a company. I wanted the job so bad, and wanted to be with my man so bad, that I began to pray again. I went to Church, and prayed the Rosary every night. Well I wound up getting the job, and now we live together and I couldn't be happier. And now I know, there is a God, and he is GREAT!
-
spiritual but I do believe in the bible
-
Not exactly, but I still maintain my faith.
-
I don't call it religious, but I do believe in God and pray everyday. I go to church occasionally
-
I am religious. I attend mass weekly. I enjoy it and I am raising my kids to believe in something and to know there are so consequences for negative/ bad behaviors.
-
I pray every night before I go to sleep and sometimes multiple times a day. I also try to go to church every sunday, but don't make a big fuss if I can't make it.
-
yes i am very happy to say i am
-
I am spiritual and religious. I love God and I am constantly trying to work on our relationship. I live to be thankful and gracious fie the earth and all our resources...
-
I am very religious. My Lord and Savior has been with me and helped me through things I that I could not handle by myself. Hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. :)
-
I was brought up Catholic. But now I don't practice or go to church. I still pray from time to time but haven't been to mass in years.
-
Im not really religious but about half my side of the family is.
-
I pray and give thanks to the Lord everyday. I have been out of church for about 10 years. I didn't like the way the Minister was a back stabber.
-
I am not religious at all. I find it interesting that while I respect the decisions/beliefs of others who are religious, yet that respect is rarely shown back.

Did Jesus say that at ALL beliefs lead to the truth RE his father?
By denying that Jesus expels demons with God’s power, the scribes and Pharisees are at risk of blaspheming the holy spirit. Hence, whose side will they take—God’s or Satan’s? Jesus says: “Either you make the tree fine and its fruit fine or make the tree rotten and its fruit rotten, for by its fruit the tree is known.”—Matthew 12:33.

I am not religious anymore... tried to when I was younger (and got disappointed in so many ways), therefore I don't see the point. Always open to reconsider of course, but right now I don't really believe there is someone watching over us from a cloud....
