Question

I asked the "Perspectives on Relgion" question and...?

I found out a lot of people were Christian, and Muslim which surprised me..
But how many go to church? JW

Answer 1

Yes, most Jehovah's Witnesses do go to church, but they call it "Kingdom Hall".

Answer 2

I go to church every Sunday. It is to only place I go every week where I feel that the people there actually know me and care about me. I love the sense of community at my church, a feeling that I do not get at work or in my day-to-day business transactions.

And I disagree with the person who said there they saw no need to go to church because they were just fine with their own personal "religion". Interacting with others of similar (but slightly varying beliefs) expands my knowledge of my faith and helps me to question some of my own biases or predispositions. I suppose one could accomplish the same thing by reading widely about spiritual issues (which I do also), but I doubt that most non-church attenders who consider themselves spiritual do much of that either. Basically, I think they are mainly just too lazy to get up on Sundays and/or too self-centered to want to share and interact with others.

Answer 3

"How many go to church?" is a question with very different answers in different countries. It is very low in Europe compared to the USA.
(in the UK, for example, on any normal Sunday, 6% of the population attend church.( English Church Census 2005))

For the USA, have a look at these maps:
1)by church
2)by percentage of adherents in overall population
3)source page.

Answer 4

Christian. No church. I left my church home about 2 years ago. Nothing against the folks, they are all great. No hidden agendas or harbored grudges on my part either. I have serious misgivings about organized religion.
I woship, pray and study my bible on a regular basis.

Thanks for asking.
Blessings

Answer 5

I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Due, in part, to the health problems of myself and my Dying Father I am not at the Kingdom Hall often.:( We do listen over the phone often though. When we were in better health we went to the Hall on Sundays and Tuesdays. We also go/went to smaller bible meetings either at the Hall or at someones house. We also met at the Hall before going from door to door.

Answer 6

I am Christan, I go to church every Sunday, on Wednesday night for Bible study, and I sometimes go on Tuesdays for prayer.

Answer 7

I hardly ever go to church. I should as that is one way we are supposed to feed our spirits. I do however mostly hang with like believers and pray with them.

Answer 8

I try to go every Sunday.

Answer 9
