Independence Day is not a religious holiday. Why do people keep asking questions like this?

Well I would say no. My dad is a priest and I don't believe we have any services on the 4th. And there is also that whole part of the constitution that has a seperation of church and state and I would say that the 4th of July has so much to do with the nation, rather than the church. So I don't think you have to.

You don't ever have to go to church, but if a loved one died serving their country (be it solder, police, fire fighter, cop) it seems like a good thing to do. Many family gatherings have a few minutes of prayer to thank their luck for living in a place with as many freedoms as we have and how we got them.

Funny you should ask....in the 1928 Book of Common Prayer it is a "Prayer Book Holy Day"
I would do something - but - I guarantee I'd be doing it alone!!!

No, you don't have to go. If your church is having a service and you feel obligated you can. I imagine if they are having one, it's a service of thanksgiving for our country.

No.
Independence Day's got nothing to do with my faith.

You don't have to go to church any particular day of the week or any particular day of the year.
