In England especially, we have paper Christians, some of whom are Catholic, who don't particularly do anything their church normally does. But you don't get to tell them they're not Christians.
You've got an atheist defending religion again. Are we in the twilight zone?
I apologize. Your correct. Usually and common are indeed better words in that sentence :-)
Not everyone is that religious I know. However most that I know are very religious so I had to use those words.
Sir your an atheist , the major difference (which I think) between you and me is that I believe in karma and rebirth where as you don't. In fact Buddhists are like peaceful atheists in some level. No God, you think for yourself , responsible for your own actions etc
