I consider myself basically a Christian/Catholic as it's the basis of my beliefs, though I don't really stick to one specific branch of Christianity, or even religion. I also don't go to church except for special occasions (weddings, funerals, etc.). I went to Catholic school all the way from gr. 1 through high school. I went to a pentecostal youth group for a while because the pastor was really open minded and it wasn't really preachy or anything, it was just a bunch of people hanging out and having a good time. He got fired for his acceptance of others and the place went downhill from there so I stopped going. I made a lot of great friends there who I haven't seen since because most of them don't want anything to do with someone who has left the church.
My personal favorite was getting yelled at for playing secular music with the rest of the band there (I played guitar for a bit, then bass for a while, and drums for a couple weeks) when we'd jam on stuff like Foo Fighters or whatever we all knew off-hand. But when I'd bust out Tool's "Schism", no one knew what it was but me and my friends
We weren't even allowed to play any CDs that weren't on a Christian label, even if the band was Christian, or the messages were all positive.
