What religion is most common where you live?

Do you share that religion with the community?

If not, do you feel like an outsider?
 
Christianity, if you want to get technical, Catholicism. No I don't. I'm non-denominational.
Not at all. I don't have to follow what other people do.
 
Christianity, including Catholicism and Anglican, is the predominant religion here. However, Christianity is declining, while some other religions are on the rise.

Christianity (43.9%)
No religion (38.9%)
Unanswered (7.2%)
Islam (3.2%)
Hinduism (2.7%)
Buddhism (2.4%)
Sikhism (0.8%)
Other faiths (0.5%)
 
Around here....

Absolute and total devotion to the NFL, with the majority practicing Chicago Bears fans and a sizable minority going to the church of the Indianapolis Colts.

There's a lot of backslid Freemasons, and a pretty good population of disillusioned UAW members. But anything else would be a fraction of the total population.

No, I'm not kidding.
 
What religion is most common where you live?
Offhand, either Southern Baptists or Methodists (I know 'cause I grew up Methodist).
Do you share that religion with the community?
Nope; was "nominally Christian" until a few years; at present, I'm a baptized member of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church.
If not, do you feel like an outsider?
Nope, those would be the Pentecostals and Catholics. :LOL:
 
Most people I talk to seem to have a Catholic background. I'm of a different faith, usually trying to convert them, lol.
 
Christianity, I think. I don't know. I'm not religious. I don't feel like an outsider because this is a pretty big city and is quite diverse. Hell, the hospital I work for is Catholic and doesn't even push it's religious leanings. I think they just use it for the loopholes anyway.
 
I talked to a couple of jehova’s witnesses one day and after two minutes of my logic I convinced them to leave the church

There is no way you can convince anyone in any faith to abandon their beliefs in 2 minutes, whether it's a Catholic, Pentecostal, JW, Mormon, Muslim, Jew, or Buddist, etc.
 
Hard to say, I'd say its 50/50 with Christians and Catholics. We have a large Hispanic population and a majority of them are catholic and everyone else falls into the Christian umbrella. Of course we have tons of other belief systems as well.
