If yes do you follow it sincerely or you are among those you bend the rules?

Yes its very important to me; when I look at my parochial school class of about 275 most of them are divorced and don't practice.
Faith is a choice and no matter how much you're schooled in it if you want to bend the rules you won't be faithful to what it is truly about.
I sincerely believe.

Religion is extremely important to me and I follow the "rules" of my religion just fine. Fortunately my religions rules are not hard to follow for me. =)

Yes, it's important to me. It keeps me afloat when nothing else does.
No, I'm not strict. I bend the rules. God gave me a brain, so I question those rules, but I don't flaunt them.

The TRUTH is important to me!
Jesus said "you will know the truth and the truth will set you free" John 8:32
His emphasis was not on religion, but on truth.

Yes, faith ("religion") is important to me.
I do my best to live with the love and mercy of the one true God in my daily life. I rejoice in the assurance of the kingdom of heaven thru His Son, Jesus.

Actually---religion is of NO importance to me. Now ask if my relationship to my savior is important and I will give you a different answer. Religion is a means to an end. Meeting together with like minded folks. But my relationship means meeting with my savior. :-)

My religion is very important to me, an integral part of my character. Pagans don't have a lot of rules, you are pretty much expected to practice personal responsibility. We have the reward of giving ourselves credit when we do well, and the learning that comes through taking responsibility for your actions when you screw up.

i think you have to separate faith from religion for a second. because all religions are going to say my way is the right way to follow GOD. im a believer. i believe if read the bible and learn about God and his son jesus christ and accept God in my heart thats the easy part. the tricky part is finding people to fellowship with who arent false prophets or trying to preach their own agenda to you. i think before u conform to the teachings of any religion you should read and study the bible first. because everything we want to know in life is in there.
