I know theres a few religious clubs you might wanna look at joining (they all pestered me during last years clubs and societies expo, and you couldn't find anyone less religious than me, lol)

I can tell you roughly where you'll find the catholic churchs around newcastle.

cyph you'll find a buddhist temple in sydney. it's sorta on the north shore.

as for what's on campus i have no idea probably just a building with the word church on it and acouple crosses on the inside.

Your getting confused there is a church as in a group of people who meet on sundays to worship God and jesus, not a building. Apprently the church service is held in Mcmullin theatre on a sunday night.

IMO, look around Newy for a church you like... the unichurch is very set in their ways and closed to certain alternate opinions...have a look around newy tho! apparently Mayfield Baptist is quite fun and energetic although it is in mayfield.... hmmm.. shifty.... Toronto Baptist is awesome!! thats where i am! but its a decent hike from uni.. but yeah.,.. by all means check out uni church (theyll have a stall at o-week im sure) but dont discount other local curches as well..

i think ive rambled enough...

Thanks Princess that was the sought of advice i needed. It was one of the churches that was recommended to me as an option. When you say a fair hike - how long would it take to get there walking or by push bike (i can't drive). Thanks once again

It's a fucking church! Just do a cruise around in a car until you find one! They all pray to the same God!

Fucking religious people.

Jumb, I think I may have just fallen in love with you (in a totally platonic way, of course!)

they all may pray to the same God but each church will be different to the next (even if only subtly) - yeah you're praying to the same god, but there are certain churches that will suit certain ppl and that's what nicho is trying to find out - a church that he/she will be suited to

maybe if you went to a church you would understand that they are all different - instead of being close-minded and saying "fucking religious people" coz you obviously don't know what you are talking about

SJ, surely T'ron'o is more ...umm... doubtful, shall we say, than Mayfield.
Yes, I know Mayfield is rather dodgy, but I'd prefer to be there than T'ron'o
