any of u guys got an overly religous family? i do
my parents are religous, but not as religous as my grandmas and aunts and uncles who i always see. and when i say overly religous i mean relatives that go to church EVERYday of the week. monday, tuesday, wednesday etc. relatives that say everythings the devil, "this movie is the devil" "that book is the devil" "your the devil!" i remember once when my cousins lost their parents, my parents offered to take them in. but my grandma and my aunt are all like "no, you dont go to to church enough we'll take them." my aunt says she has a personal relationship with jesus, like she talks to him all the time. ![]() for having a girlfriend. and if i had a penny for everytime my aunt and grams was slain in the spirit i'd have about 2 dollars. |

No, my family is not THAT religious. I'm the only one in my family who doesn't believe in God, though. >.>; My mom doesn't pray. She rarely shows that she is religious. But I know she is. So I guess you can say my family isn't a religious-mentioning family. *Shrug*
If I had a penny for everytime my mother talks about God or something, I'd probably only have 50 cents. |

Nope, my mom used to go to church when I was about 4-7 and i would go with her but thats it. Now we never go to church..but my grandma is a christian and shes so religious also my grandpa. But we dont live together..I would get so pissed if we did though, they would be commenting on my clothes, the music i listen to and other stuff that would bug them.

My parents are reglious, not overly religious. Even though its was kinda annoying when I was younger, I love them the way they are and I wouldnt change them.

No. My parents hardly go to church, but they force me to.
I'm glad they're not overly religious though. I am not really fond of my religion. |

Haha, my friends family went with his gf's family to the movies and they were standing in line and he says "Wow, the lines really long" and her mom goes "It was God's plan for it to be this way, horrible things could have happened if it wasn't"
I don't like it though, you can't have a conversation with soemone who answers, "that's the devil" or "it was God's intentions" or "It was Gods will" It's actually quite annoying. |

When I was growing up, my family went to church at least three times a week, twice on Sunday and once on Wednesday. I moved out after I turned 18, and then I did what I wanted. I went through an agnostic phase, and now I go to mass once a week usually, occasionally I go during the week once. But, when I go visit them, I abide by their rules if I stay in their house. I feel like if you live with your parents (or really, whoever is giving you shelter and food and love) you need to abide by their rules, at least in their house. If there is something you really want to do, in most cases you'll do it ( reading in the school library, ha, I love that one, I did that!) but in their home, well, it's THEIR home, when you get your own home, you can have the rules the way YOU want them.
My two cents. |

My family is really religious too, we to go church is every-day single day, even it's like victoria day, my dad will be like "i know what he can do! Let's go to church!" It use to be really annoying and I felt like I wasted all my holidays and stuff. But I don't really mind now, although something I still get a bit annoy. Once I understand my believe and want to learn more. My motive and atitudes changes...

Hm, well... it's not that my family frequents church.
It's more or less of a "THIS OR THAT WILL TAKE YOU TO THE DARK SIDE" stuff. It annoys the living hell out of me, honestly. Afterall, what the hell is the dark side.... |

My friends parents are overly religious they said even if he was dieing and they had a choice between giving their 10 percent of their income to the church or buying the medicine that would save his life, they chose giving the money to the church.

:/ Well... I work with Vacation Bible School in summer, pray almost every night, and go to church on special occasions... but my family isn't really all that religious.
Except for my aunt and uncle... they pray before every meal and all that good stuff. Oh, and my Grandma is always saying how I shouldn't wear so much black because, "Black is the DEVIL'S color!!! Plus, it doesn't make you look pretty." ![]() The last time I prayed other than at night before I went to sleep or at church was when my mom and I were praying for the Spurs to win. ![]() |
