I think it's the same here, lots of meanings is attached to which type is used.  It's too obscure for someone like me.

I like the 1662 one though.  The language has rhythm and weight, 'it is very meet, right and our bounden duty, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto thee....'  I love that 'bounden duty'.

I only attend for hatch, match and dispatch,  and only when there's decent wine afterwards.

nope, waste of time.
if for a second we assume there's a lifeform we can classify as a god then he or she will nkow his/her own when the time comes.

Yeah if you are going to please God you are really rolling the dice.  There are thousands of religions out there.  Chances are you are going to the wrong one.

Wow, I knew you were a bunch of godless heathens, but seriously, this is scary.

I go to church at least twice a week, most weeks.  Vespers every Friday, and Liturgy every Sunday (which service invariably includes two shorter services, so there).

I went to a church yesterday for a first commununion. Man it's boring.

I went with special occasions as closest though sometimes I go just for the hell of it.

Einstein was wrong, God does play dice.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Probably neither one of you.

Yeah. I don't see why rational thought would be scary. As opposed to insanity of going to a church on a regular basis.
