“You might be religious if…”~Jim Taylor

You may be religious if:

– you go to church because if you don’t you feel God will be disappointed in you
– you go to church because if you don’t you will feel guilty
– you try to do things to make God happy with you
– you think God only speaks through a book
– you are afraid to take communion because of some hidden sin and you are worried God might kill you if you do
– you think you get some kind of points with God when you do good things
– you believe those in “the ministry” are somehow more holy than anyone else
– you think you have to say certain words just a certain way to get God to hear you
– you believe God hears you when you curse but you are not sure He hears you when you pray
– you believe some buildings are holy
– you believe God causes tornados and hurricanes to destroy places because they are wicked
– you think God only speaks in King James english
– you think the only holy worship songs were written in the 1700’s
– you give God 10% but don’t mind giving your waitress 17% .. if she does a good job
– you are not sure the building is really a church if it does not have a steeple
– you are pretty sure that only your group has the whole truth
