However, I know quite a few people in my life who are Catholic and despite expressing agnostic beliefs or general indifference, they are pretty loyal to the church. They attend mass at least a couple times a month, and some of them even have kids go to Catholic school. i’ve asked my good friend about this, and for him he goes just because it’s so ingrained in him since childhood he can’t imagine life any other way. It’s just part of life and always will be.
How is this a real thing? It's not the first time I've heard it, but... is it hard to imagine doing whatever you want on Sundays instead of going to church? Or not making your kids get taught things you think aren't true by priests?

I've obviously never had religion, but I truly don't get going through the motions, if you already did the hard part of calling the beliefs you were raised with bullshit.

Practicing religion is neutral to good. Believing in religion is very very bad. The priest and the converting wierdo are ugly because of their belief. People practicing the religion because that is what their family has always done are partaking in something beautiful.
People doing anything because of "their family's" identity is why this thread exists, pal
