At the risk of triggering BRTD, wouldn't this be an aspect of "cultural Catholicism" (or any other religion)?
In a way, yes (I'd be at least somewhat "culturally Catholic" and working my way toward some degree of "cultural Orthodoxy" and "cultural Protestantism" and hoping that some day I might find the time gain some basic notions of "cultural Judaism", "cultural Buddhism" and "cultural Hinduism"
), but I don't think it's how most Americans would think of that term.
Godfearer, was a term applied pre-Christ to Gentiles who liked Jewish morality and monotheism, and sometimes went to synagogue, but never actually joined the religion. That might be a good term for your views.
That's very interesting. I had no idea such people existed in significant numbers.
The term itself kind of reminds of Pascal's wager ante litteram though, doesn't it? Pascal's wager is
not one of the Christian ideas I find of much interest.
