Yep...that there's your problem...
I'm not really a church going guy...I was dragged along a fair bit as a child...that all stopped.
I follow a belief/value system by which I don't set out to hurt others, and try to do more good than bad. I don't worship *ANY* idols, because nearly every single religious text says not to worship false ones and I don't want to screw myself over as the odds aren't great I'd have a winner.
So I go by this value system, try to live a good life etc, and hope that if there's some kind of God/creator/whatever out there - this will be good enough.
Really though if it's not good enough, I don't need what any given afterlife has to offer.
I'd like to say that the following isn't intended to be a blanket statement, for all of the subscribers to the catholic/christian bit I've known, not *all of them* have been like this, but...

This DOES seem to apply to a majority...they're quite quick to judge based on a difference of opinion then act as though you don't have the right to your own without being labelled "wrong" very dogmatic crowd considering they're breaking their own rules by doing that.
As a rule though anybody that tries to bring "God" into a conversation outside of a Church, I tend to avoid...they shouldn't be doing that really, people find religion, not the other way around - this applies to subscribers of any faith.
Nova, I read a funny church billboard the other day that hit the nail right on the head though...
"Don't let Christians put you off Christianity"
HOW. APT. IS. THAT?
Re: facebook...It's mainly a place where people just say "lookit me, look what I did, look what I got, look how awesome my life is....etc etc etc" when it comes down to any actual interaction it's few and far between, people are too busy validating themselves through their friend count and proving how "cool" their take is by ticking "I LIKE THIS", more friends, less friend
ship
This is why I pretty much don't use FB, for me as I only had about 4 people on it, just turned into a glorified email system anyways.
