Friday Five

1. Were you raised in a particular religious faith?

Christian. Officially Catholic, but raised Pentecostal.

2. Do you still practice that faith? Why or why not?

I am officially Catholic and do the Catholic thing, but I would and could easily add a Pentecostal weekly service to my schedule. I am more often than not, unfulfilled after mass.

3. What do you think happens after death?

Die and go to Heaven or Hell.

4. What is your favorite religious ritual (participating in or just observing)?

None presently. I used to live for Pentecostal praise/worship. You can get that in some Catholic Churches, especially African American ones.

5. Do you believe people are basically good?

Yes, sort of, but we are all basically evil also. It was normal people, "good people" who did not feel compelled by goodness to do anything about slavery, it was good regular people that watched as the Holocaust happened, we can multiply examples. We were made good but have evil hearts which is why Jeremiah says that the human heart is evil above all else. how true.
