Reading: Growing up in a devout family, I started attending the Pentecostal church at 16, even though I wasn’t sure about my faith. However, when I turned 21, my interest in religious practices waned. Now, my church friends and neighbors are urging me to join the choir and participate in other activities. Is it truly necessary to do all this? Are religious duties compulsory? Do I need to attend every church event?

Indian law does not mandate religious participation or attendance at specific events. Your faith is a personal choice, and you are free to practice it as you see fit. You are not obligated to join the choir or attend every church event if you do not feel inclined to do so.
