Random Thoughts For A Friday

The Christian Chronicle says were are number one. Americans who give their religious affiliation as "Church of Christ" are more likely than any other group to attend weekly worship services, a new Gallup Poll reports. Sixty-eight percent of Church of Christ members interviewed by Gallup said they attend worship services at least once a week or almost every week, according to a poll released April 14. The analysis is based on an aggregate of more than 11,000 Gallup Poll interviews between 2002 and 2005, including 123 identified with the Church of Christ. Pollsters did not ask respondents to specify whether the churches were a cappella or instrumental. Denominations on the list included: Mormons - 67 percent Pentecostal - 65 percent Southern Baptist - 60 percent Catholic - 45 percent Methodist - 44 percent Presbyterian - 44 percent Lutheran - 43 percent Episcopal - 32 percent For more information, see poll.gallup.com I am still trying to figure our how I fell about that???
