Losing My Religion?

I was brought up as a Roman Catholic. My entire family is Roman Catholic.

I had a Christian education (and am proud to have done so). if I ever had kids, I'd want to give them the same education I received. If i ever am married, I expect to do so in a Church.

Where religion loses me is the bible itself. I like to think that the bible has a good set of values if not taken literally. It is after all a collection of books that were deemed bible worthy (by man) over 2000 years ago. I think most stories themselves are no longer relevant, though the values behind them hold some weight.

I believe in Karma, even though this is not in my faith.

I used to work with a Coptic orthodox lady who was one of the most dishonest people I have ever met. She would hapily spend 6 hours at mass and would 'fast' for a third of the year (though this meant she ate chips and Oreos from what i could tell). She would decorate her desk space with saint pictures but would freely lie through her teeth to get what she wanted, then I assume she would go to confession and be good with herself.

For myself, I am happy going to Church at Christmas and Easter, in addition to Christenings, Weddings and Funerals. I am increasingly disagreeing with some Church teachings and think I should be free to make my own mind up. The bible is after all vague in areas.J

So how many concessions do I need to make before I lose my faith? I am sure that my family and Church would not agree with all of my life choices, some of which I do not regret. I still like being a Christian on my own terms but I do wonder sometimes.
