you don't have to go to church or pray every day to have some very profound beliefs and live according to them.
So I ask you back: what is YOUR description of religion?

I never go 2 church, i never pray, even i did it often since i turned 14 or 15. I think as well, mentioned by vlamm, we dont need buildings 4 real faith. I say there is sg out of there, several names was given 4 it, 2 make ppl easier 2 welcome and understand it. Personally i am very interested in budhism, esp d tibetian. I do believe that my soul dont die with my body and we return here again and again d face new challenges and destinies. Thats my point and basic of my excistence.

Well, I am a Roman Catholic. But honestly speaking, I do not go to church every Sunday - I don't believe that it's a must, it's just like a show-off thing, and after going to the church, peole just goes back to their wicked ways.I just pray 'every' night directly to him using my Nokia fone - direct, via satellite w/o interruption.
Also, I don't go to places like this one - has a very ironic signs as well!
When I feel like doing it, I sometimes frequent the church . . .

Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night. |

I'm christian, but I don't go to church. Make that me a bad christian? I don't think so. I know people that go to church and are thiefs.

This is my personal opinion and hope doesn’t cause offence to anyone.
I think religion is the cause of most of the world problems. In this time and age it does more harm than good. I personally think religion was created to bring order from chaos, hence the phase “Put the fear of God into you”. But because time has moved on and we have a social structure, religion has become redundant.

religion in itself has never hurt anybody. It's is people and the way they twist ideas and beliefs that were once good, that cause all the harm in the world.

Yes, twisted interpretations of their religious beliefs have caused a lot of problems but great interpretations have also caused a lot of good. Religion can be both beneficial and harmful - it all depends on the person interpreting the scriptures.
LIVE LIFE AS YOU WANT - AS LONG AS IT DOESN'T HURT ANYONE!!!
I'm not religious but I like to study all different religions. Their scriptures make for good novels and interesting reading. I find a lot of tranquility in Buddhism.
