I find that with a lot of Catholics who were born into it, they sort of give it up. I haven't been to church in forever, but mostly because I work on Sundays and it's just not what we do. But I went on my own in college (going to a school in the South encouraged that, but being Catholic I was still slightly outcast)

I don't follow a lot of the beliefs but Lent is the one thing I do every year. I take it as a small sacrifice. I try to remember not to eat meat on Fridays, but that's not always the case.
