Sure
and if you want to add in there "read the Bible Daily"
So happiness is our purpose in life?
Also, so you mean that you read the Bible daily or???
I meant generally.
also you are one of the more pronounced culprits
Show me a quote and I'll take that into consideration.
You're making a pretty big assumption there - one based solely on a person's religious views and not their own history. It's also blatantly prejudicial, which is something I'd avoid if I were you.
Prejudicial? OK, let me back up for a second. Religious views (even atheism is a religion) are a definition of who you are because it is what you believe. It is not "prejudicial" to say a Muslim President would make different decisions in foreign policy than a Catholic President; it's logical.
Think about this for example: if you were to ask a military veteran on how to shoot a gun, and then asked a Call of Duty player how to shoot a gun, don't you think they would give different answers? Sure, they're both people, and we can't KNOW for a FACT they would give different answers, but it is logical to assume, just like it is logical to assume that someone of one religion would act differently in situations compared to another religion because said religions have their own sets of rules and regulations, which a true believer of that religion would follow and base his life upon. Catch my drift?
There is a lot more to religion than going to church or temple... Non-practicing generally means they do not regularly go to church or participate in religious activities.
I will go out and say that I am Jewish. Although I am Jewish in faith, I am non-practicing. I do not regularly go to the synagogue for services. I do not believe in god. I do, however, believe in the moral teachings of religion and the culture brought along with Judaism. Because of my religion, I have a close knit extended family that often gathers for celebrations and we have lots of fun together. I am culturally Jewish even though I do not believe in some of the fundamental bases of it.
So... I don't want this to sound judgmental or anything (honest), but that would be making your own religion, right? Kind of like if I said I was a Christian but didn't believe in Jesus Christ's redeeming power, y'know? It wouldn't technically be Christianity, would it?
I don't want this to sound harsh or anything. I know plenty people who are on the same path as you are.
