>What sect of Christianity are you?
Roman Catholic
>How often, if at all, do you worship? (pray, go to church, read the Bible)
I pray multiple times a day every day, for one thing or another. I try to pray the Rosary at least once a week, since it's a powerful prayer. I go to Mass every Sunday and every Holy Day of Obligation, and I also try to go on the feast days of saints I like.
>Do you actually believe in the religion? Meaning, do you believe the mythological aspects of it, like presence of an omniscient creator and the divinity of Christ?
Absolutely. I affirm all the supernatural, otherworldly aspects of the Church's tradition: healings, apparitions, visions, mystical experiences, and so on. And of course, like any good Catholic, I affirm the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
>If yes, do you also believe in science that may seemingly contradict the above?
I don't believe there's a contradiction, simply because the divine and the miraculous continues to evidence itself beyond the explanation of science. I certainly recognize science's great power to explain and manipulate the natural world, but it has its limitations.
>Do you believe that, considering you believe your religion is true, that others are necessarily false? (Especially in regards to other Abrahamic religions)
Yes. I certainly believe there is a some degree of truth in all religions, since all of them affirm the reality of a more-than-material universe. However, none of them are as true as Catholic Christianity. This is a matter of course for me as a believer. If I believed Islam had the ultimate truth, I'd be a Muslim. If I believed no religion held any truth, I'd be an atheist. There is no point in following a faith out of custom or habit; that would be a waste of time. I believe and practice because I believe truth is found in Christ alone through the ministry of the Church.
