maybe it's because I wasn't brought up that way. I don't equate religious with ritual. My moms always taught me that religion is in your heart, and that whether you make it to church or not, you can believe in God. And to truly beieve in God, TRULY, you behave a certain way in life. That is religion.

Some people find peace in ritual and ceremony, but that doesn't make them more religious. I have a black and white view here, I know.


: : evolution, then you believe in God.

: : I don't know about your church going habits, but I do know that having a firm belief in god makes you religious.

: : a stark contrast to how you feel about 95% of your state, but who says religion isn't full of hypocracy.

: : no offense...I'm just a bit flinchy this morning

: : : If only you knew how wrong you are!

: : : The last time I went to church was 1989...because my mum made me. She eventually gave up on me.

: : : : how's that working out for you?

: 1. Nixx, i believe Supleemental was responding to jami, not you.

: 2. Being religious is more about practicing rituals and ceremonies, not faith. Which is why i am not religious, nor do i believe jami to be
