From a scale of one to ten, how do you rate yourself as a religious person?

A scale is hard; but I would say I am a moderate christian. So I will give myself a 5. I do believe in the teachings from the bible; it is a faith (in my heart). I try to live my life as a good person; but I'm not regular church goer. I find most of the people that go to church are old people that are frightened that they are going to die soon. The rest of them are a pack of hypocrits. I prefer to pray quietly by myself.LennyeTran wrote:From a scale of one to ten, how do you rate yourself as a religious person?
Me, too. I believe in Buddhism, but I rarely go to the temples and stuff. I don't believe going to a temple and praying to the Buddhas would make me a better person than those who don't go. To me, going to the temples and churches is all about being spiritual and nothing more. On the other hand, it's nice to go there once in a while, though. It makes me feel different and spiritual as like a lamb that has lost its faith and now is coming back .Shazzam wrote:A scale is hard; but I would say I am a moderate christian.
