[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a teen, and up through college, I attended mass regularly even though I do not think I was ever a believer.

I did this because my parents wanted to me to, because it was a cultural heritage, and honestly, out of habit (no pun intended).  My (incorrect) assumption was that everyone else went for the same reasons and thought as I did.

So I think the label “religious but not spiritual” definitely applied to me.[/quote]

You don't sound religious (or spiritual).  Most Americans are like that; they will check the box "Catholic" (in your case), but they really don't believe. They just go to church out of inertia.  Thanks for commenting.[/quote]

“Most” check the box but don’t actually believe? Cites, please.

[b]“Churchgoers are there for the fellowship only” poster rides again. [/b]To continue the metaphor, why have you been beating this dead horse for years? You have no data to back it up. [/quote]

Fellowship and sense of community and feeling good about love your fellow man and stuff.  Religion lite.  Which church do you go to?  Church shop any?[/quote]
