your experince while visiting a religious place and saw the religious practice of people?

Answer 1

I went on a mission trip to Mexico recently, and while I was there we went to a Mexican church. It was AWSOME! We didn't understand everything they said, but we knew that we were worshiping the same God. It was really cool.

They did some stuff differently but when they went to praise God we could feel His presence. We knew we were with fellow Christians and it was awsome.

Answer 2

Been to many different christian churches all good experiences. Some have more of the Holy Spirit than others, some are in the shadows a bit on who they are and whom they serve.

I have been to a Buddhist Temple too. Felt pity for those who follow a man who never even claimed to be God, but had lots of creepy symbolism around him.

Answer 3

I was in Jerusalem for the Jewish wedding of my niece ! it was a lovely happy experience .

I have been at a Greek Orthodox wedding in London and that was a lovely happy occasion as well '

I would like to visit Lourdes in France .

I was in Westminster Abby ,for the National Remembrance service for the victims of 9/11 (the Queen cried in public , something unheard of here ).,

I have been to Vad-Va-shem , Holocaust Memorial Centre ,Israel.
It was very moving and the children's memorial was beautiful ,but so sad .

Answer 4

I've been to weddings, christenings, funerals, mass - and the whole time, I sit there thinking "huh?" I just don't get it - it seems arcane, out of touch, trying to equate the writings in a book 2 thousand years old with the 21st century. The ceremonies weren't personal and they weren't a celebration - rather a reminder of that we should praise or be damned.
The secular ceremonies I have attended were personal, they were celebrations and they spoke to me far more than anything I experienced in a church.

Answer 5

I have seen people from different cultures and also have been to religious places and saw the religious practices of people, its the greatest experience!...
they are very generous and polite...as they do not see ur skin colour as a matter of fact treat you as if your are their own. Trust me, its a great pleasure and experience

Answer 6

When ever I visit any religious place, I don't go there /see anything like a critic but I involve/participate/observe like a child and get lot of solace.

Answer 7

I stood in a monks temple in Xindu, China. During their ritual chanting mantra, "oooohhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm," one would say that there is a spiritual presence in the room. I felt what they were refering to, but it wasn't spiritual. Since they dwell in rooms of stone, the sound of 50 monks ohhmming at once was sufficient to reverberate off the walls and give the impression of divinity.

Also, when I was living in Mexico, I noticed that everyone would genuflect themseves whenever they passed a church.

Answer 8

Religion is legalism, putting on a false front. Behind all that kindness and piety are sinful people living sinful lives. Religion is lack of honesty with God and this is what is so terrible about it. True spiritual worship of God is stripped of all the pomp and ceremony and phony smiles. It is down-to-earth worship of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who is God. It is being totally honest about who you are with other people and with God. Too few people practice their faith life in this matter, preferring the damning qualities of pride instead. God hates pride and he hates a phony. Proud liars go to hell.

Answer 9

Many people cannot find a proper place to worship and thus give up. It is only through some major persistence that you will find what you are looking for. No one said it would be easy.

Answer 10

I saw many of the bigest Churches ever build. Keln( Germany), Vatican, SPain, Prague, HOlland, RUssian and many more.
I can tell you one ting that most fanatics and radicals belivers are in US. I guess Money create stupidity.
Most ppl just visits those churches as the part of history and not part of insanity.
Therefore GOD and Money exist.
