Nope and nopeeeeeeeee
Athiest.
Nope. Definitely not.
christian but dont go church.
Catholic and do go to church.
I am not a believer in any of it sorry.
I would sooner stop in a warm bed than sit in a cold church on a sunday morning its more exciting.
I'm supposed to be catholic but that's only because of my parents. I don't class myself as anything - Religion sucks!
Your thoughts on Church are totally incorrect. Not all Churches are cold and quiet and boring. Do you really think people would want to get up on a Sunday and sit in a cold Church?:rolleyes:Quote:

No I'm English.
Nah I'm not going to be told how to live my life by some "sacred" book.
I have been to lots of weddings and funerals and they have always been to huge stone churches that even in the summer are cold inside :s If I was going to go to church I would want to go to a proper church and not some crappy building that in no way resembles a church but just been blessed by some old guy with disturbing interests in young boys.Quote:

i've never been to church in my life
Much rather prey at home, its much easier for me.
Just to make my point :o below is a church :o it looks nothing like a church :s if i was religious i would want to go to an old stone place that looks like a church and if you would go to the church below i suggest you go to the pub instead at least they serve beer.

Churches don't have a proper look, the generic look is a building with a point at the top. I can name loads of old churches that don't look generic. Totham URC looks like a village hall, Totham Barn Church is hundreds of years old, and looks like a village hall come barn :PQuote:

Or it does in my church.
Shows how little you know:rolleyes: Church means "the people" the building does not matter. The reason for you have been in cold old churches is because people want a traditional Wedding in a nice old church that does not make a spot of difference to where God is. As for old guy who has blessed it and is interested in young boys you really really need to get out more or grow up.:rolleyes:Quote:

My comment on old pervs was aimed mainly towards the catholic church and at some of their lot and the cover ups even at the vatican where they just moved priests on to other churches to offend again as soon as there was any question mark of the paedo priest getting close to the young kids and not in a good way.Quote:

You call it a con and that we are all weak minded people but i think you have already slated religion in your own mind without giving it a chance.
People parting seas seems a little far fetched :o i saw a program that it was a shallow part of sea and wind did it lolQuote:

Some old guy building a boat to fit 2 of every animal on in the world :o he would have needed to destroy a rainforest or 2 to get that much wood :o did he fly them in on easyjet or pick them up from each country?
if their is a god why does he let all the bad stuff happen?
I just look at things logically and think the bible has alot of daft stories in that i dont believe but I also agree there are lots of things in it that must be true :)
If you enjoy church and religion I have nothing against that and i am not telling you not to go or believe :)
You are right these are all my opinions and I am very sorry I have managed to turn your thread to this. I made a small off the cuff mark into a bit of a rant :o i think it was your :rolleyes: at me :o they annoy me lol
I value your opinions and i do enjoy learning about things from all religions but that will never make me a believer unles theres lots of evidence to prove it.
I am a christian i had been going to Church every Sunday until i have a massive fight with this lady in there. Only went back three times ever since. I dont think i will go back. Full of old peeps anyways.
Not much good Churches around mine. :(
