In reply to the discussion: Wondering how it is where you all live (extreme religiosity) [View all]spin
(17,493 posts)Most are fundamentalist Christians. I lived in the Tampa Bay Area of Florida for 37 years before I retired and moved here. I feel I higher percentage of people here attend church on a regular basis and that may be because most people here know each other and church is more of a social gathering than in Tampa. The people here are more willing to push their faith on others than in Tampa. Unfortunately this often alienates others who are less "religious."
Not to be critical but it seems that only a few Christians have actually read the entire Bible which is the user manual for their religion. Perhaps that is why I often say, "The only problem with Christianity is Christians."
Admittedly the Bible is a difficult book to read and comprehend. I feel a person could spend a lifetime studying the Bible and still have questions. Still I feel that if more people would try to follow the guidelines set out in the Bible we would have a better society.
