I was raised Roman Catholic my whole life. As soon as I was 18 I stopped going. Now I only ever think about church twice a year: Christmas Eve and Easter when I'm home with my family. Many of my friends who I grew up going to church with are now the same way.

Edit: words

And on top of all these things the arrogant righteousness that many Christians carry themselves with in spite of all the things you just listed is what really rubs me the wrong way.

Edit: this is in no way directed towards OP. He's been very gracious and open minded in this thread

I commented above but this describes me perfectly... I have my own belief and faith in who/what I believe God to be and I don't need to sit through an hour of preaching and singing every week to make peace with my God.
