I was baptized Methodist, but I have always been atheistic agnostic (well, since I was able to think and remember, which was around age 5). I'm a European-American, but, first and foremost, I am a conscious citizen of the world.

Born - A Roman Catholic, in London, of complete Irish heritage. Some i'm one of them..london-irish folk...yet i've moved out long ago.
Now - well, now i'm not sure. I respect my religion and i study religion at sixth form/college held in a catholic school. Basically, I put my opinions to one side and learnt the opinions of others, yet did not follow them, just observed them. Its all I do. I love to study faith, and what it does to people.
However, I myself have thought to renounce my faith mainly because it serves me no purpose anymore, I have a bible that i read, just as i have a koran. Every one of these world faith books contain lovely ideas which, should I agree with, I might live by. Hell, i've looked upon the work of the current Dalai Lama, all the way to that of Anton LaVey. I'm still trying to define God in my life, currently he is a non-physical symbol for universal brotherhood, yet something more would be nice. Maybe i might just resort to some pagan faith thats all about peace and worshipping the Sun. I can see the deal with that, without the Sun there would be no life on Earth.
I don't know. :D
Birth religion? People are not born religious.
My parents are if that counts. My mother is a catholic/santeria practitioner and my father is a satanist.
I'm part irish
Part black
Part cuban-taino
part scottish
which in turn fragment into bits of little parts since my family seems to feel the need to marry quite different people from random countries.
I'm not religious right now, i like not to believe in lies.
the phrase 'opposites attract' springs to mind. cool.Quote:

Religion is not a thing I was born with or attached for that matter now. I do not want to repeat the same mistakes that divided me among my own brothers and sisters and separated me from being in the same clan you are. No I do not want to belong to any anymore now.
Friends I am none, not even a human being and if I say I am a human being there are other beings or species they are not human beings and they are just beings and I am a being and nothing else, a part of this existence. I do not want to draw a line even between beings and non beings. We are the universe, a whole, an integral whole!
hello~
My mum was a non-practicing Catholic, Dad an Atheist, so I was baptised Catholic as a baby. Now I am a Christian which I find very difficult as I find myself struggling everyday. I received life but find it hard to accept.
I'm Jewish, born to very irreligious parents who consider our culture more important than our religion. I attended a yeshiva for most of my youth, though I later went to public school.
I fancied myself a very reluctant agnostic, because I don't practice as often as I should, and feel that I need to practice my religion regularly in order to regularly feel G-d's presence. I'm very much culturally Jewish, and agree with a great deal of, if not all, the tenets of my religion but try to keep my Bible and laws in context so I better understand them, and whether or how I should agree with them. I feel my idea of G-d very much half-formed, and am so unsatisfied with that. I also feel that living in a very atheistic society, despite my religious Jewish neighborhood, does me more harm than good. Whenever I practice, I am happy, but somehow, I do not do as much as I should.
My current religious position is Vaishnavism.
Islam; from craddle to grave (by God's grace).
I am a Roman Catholic but not a practicing one in the sense of going to church. This is strickly for myself - I don't believe that you have to attend a certain place on a certain day to prove that you believe so I guess I practice religion in my own way.
My religion is kindness to all.
Birth religion - none
Following religion - baptist
Next - methodist
After - I dabbled (dabbled meaning looked into/studied) Wicca
Now - pure and absolute Confuzzledness!!!! :( I belive in something, I just don't know what.
