Religious people: what is your level of observance?

Quick and simple question for any person on here who considers themselves religious.

What is your level of observance? For the purposes of this thread, this includes the following:

- following halal/kosher/vegetarian diets, or any other special food requirements.
- attending services at a place of worship.
- practicing religion within the home (praying, scripture/study of holy books, grace/blessings at meals, bedtime prayers etc.)
- giving to religiously-based charities/causes (time, money, resources)
- keeping Shabbat (if Jewish)
- fasting on prescribed days (such as Ramadan, Yom Kippur or during Lent).
- following any rules on clothing, hair, bodily hygiene and cleaning.

The list is not exhaustive though.

So, post away! Poll coming...
