    I am happy for those of you who go and for those who don't. It's important to be true to yourselves.
    I'm catholic but I don't believe in the church and what it stands for so I seldom go unless it's for an occasion. I really don't see the need to go. I choose the rules I see fit for myself and live by them. (which btw is just pure common sense like not killing or sleeping with someones wife etc)

    Not for a few years. I'd only go for funerals, weddings or if my family decide to drag me to a holiday ceremony, luckily none of these have happened at a church for a long time.

    As little as I can, most of the time I am forced by my parents to do so.

    I put other - I almost never go voluntarily but since I went to a Catholic school I went to mass semi-frequently compulsorily. I didn't really mind, we would sit in the back row of the choir seats and giggle at things.

    I don't, the only time I have been church is with my primary school (catholic), Weddings, Funeral and on a paris trip with school, we didn't pray but we wandered around the church, because it was massive. I went to a catholic primary school and high school, despite not believing in god.

    I used to go to a catholic church every sunday without miss till about the age of 16. However, that all stopped when I actually started to question my faith and religion. I am now an athiest and apart from weddings, have not been to a church since.

    I attend Church for Rememberance Day, marriages and funerals. I respect the buildings, and I always marvel at how wonderful they look, but I'm not particularly religious, so I don't visit too often.

    In primary school everyone used to walk down to the local church at christmas. Since then I have been to church twice, both for funerals.

    I go every sunday, I'm Catholic. It's just become the normal thing to do really, I don't find it boring as it's only an hour out of my life, and it's a peaceful place to go and worship God.
