    Would you Open Carry to Church?


    I saw the post about the Church Nursery Concealed Carry Question and it got me thinking about this and I was just curious.

    I'll add that I have OC'd in a church, though not during services (I don't regularly attend).

    Being Deist, I do not regularly attend church. But my travels do take me there for this and that. I would definitely OC in a church provided it was allowed. If not I would CC or no-C depending on the importance of the attendance (my kids church group, etc) or find another church.

    Really no different than anyplace I go as it relates to OC/CC/no-C

    I always CC in church because the congregation's attention should be focused on God rather than on me.

    I voted never carry to church. I mean think of the children! LMAO! No seriously. I don't go to church so I don't plan on carrying there. I mean If I had to for a family member I would probably CC.

    I personally am not a religious person, and therefore never attend church - however if I DID go, I WOULD OC, unless the pastor asked me not to.

    If I were to attend I would conceal. Not because I feel it's wrong to OC, but as DNAR said I think people attention should be focused on god and the sermon and not on me.

    I vote CC. I don't OC very much anyways, and wouldn't want to steal any thunder from that "God" guy I keep hearing about. Must be a sin or something.....
