1) To go or not to go?
Every Sunday morning millions of Christians go to church. Fellowship is an important part of being a Christian as this gives us the opportunity to fulfil the key commandment that Christ gave to us to 'love one another'. If we isolate ourselves then it is difficult to demonstrate our love for others to God, but I was interested to know if visitors to the site thought it was important to go to church every week.
An overwhelming 93.2% thought that attending church each week was important, leaving 6.8% with the view that it wasn't necessary. The sample size was 1654.
I was also interested to know how many actually went to church each week, and 87.7% said yes, while 12.3% said they didn't. The sample size was 1417. The more astute among you will notice that this leaves a discrepancy of around 5.5%, but at least they think going to church is important!

3) Overcoming Temptation
The word "temptation" has been trivialised. Offer a chocolate to a fashion-conscious lady - she will take one at the same time saying, "You really shouldn't tempt me." There is even a perfume called "Temptation".
