I do believe in God, but I don't believe in religion as such. I think I have mentioned this before. My husband was raised protestant and I was raised catholic. Served as an altar girl and I used to go to church at least once a week up until I was about 16.
At that point I decided that I would no longer attend church because the ideas they have are in no way linear with my own ideas of what or who God is.
I believe you can have faith without having to conform to dogma or rule, applied by an organisation too rich and powerful for its own good.
For that very reason I won't have my son christened, nor will I take him to church or send him to a catholic school. You don't need a set of rules and a building to believe or to pray.
I believe, though, that faith is a very personal thing and each should experience it as he or she wants without pushing other people into it.
