Just a little something I found on a friends site...thought I'd share
Religious versus faithful. Which one are you?

• If you are religious you go to church because you feel you have to. If you are faithful you go for no other reason than to worship God and learn about him.
• If you are religious you remember who wasn't in church. If you are faithful you think about all the missed opportunities YOU'VE had that you could have shared time with God himself.
• If you are religious you condemn other people's mistakes (but of course say you don't judge). If you are faithful you forgive and look at your own mistakes and realize you aren't any better or worse.
• If you are religious you recite the Lord's prayer because its what you've always done. If you are faithful you get on your knees every day knowing that you are not worthy of his love but live for him because he alone IS worthy.
• If you are religious you only celebrate Jesus' life and death on holidays. If you are faithful you wake up every morning knowing what he did for you and trying your best to love him with everything you have.
• If you are religious you believe what you hear or raised to believe and take it for what it is. If you are faithful you are urgent in getting to know what God really says about it in his word.
• If you are religious you open the door for another person and feel good about yourself for doing it. If you are faithful when you open that door you feel humbled because its just something we ought to do for each other.
• If you are religious you hide your faith as if its a secret. If you are faithful you let Jesus' light shine in and through you as if its the greatest gift of ALL!
• If you are religious you believe you get to heaven by being a good person, doing the right thing, or being in church more than not. If you are faithful you believe that it is finished and there is no other way to God the father than through Jesus Christ dieing on the cross and by confessing with your mouth and believing in your heart that Jesus is Lord and Savior.
• If you are religious you take pride in your RELIGION. If you are faithful you boast only in your Lord God. (and generally, you don't like the word religion; What is your religion worth if you do not have faith, and what purpose does it serve?)

More to come later...updating this during my break in my 3 hour soc. lecture!
