WHOO RELIGION.

honestly, i'm not terribly invested in any form of faith or whatnot, because as a nineteen year old, i am one of those unfortunate, apathetic, self involved souls. however, i am trying. lol and Kurt Vonnegut is my hero.

i was predisposed to dislike my mother's chosen religion (jehovah's witness) because shortly before christmas the year i was ten, she decided we were going to become part of that church and she swore off holidays. that means, no christmas, no birthday parties/presents, no easter, no dressing up for halloween, no SINGING christmas/halloween songs in SCHOOL. no participating in ANYTHING holiday-like, no standing up for the Pledge of Alligeance, no watching hoilday movies. nothing. i'm not saying i really DO dislike that particular religion now, i just think it's not for me, and not JUST for that. it didn't help that those rules were the ONLY ones my mother adopted - she still smoked and swore and stole, and many other things. and she never made us go to kingdom hall/church for services, either. it also didn't help that i was kind of a young child, and so was my brother (almost 7 at the time), and the only reason we were given as to why there were to be NO more christmas trees/presents or birthday parties or ANYTHING was, "it says you're not supposed to in the bible". she neglected to look that UP and SHOW us, which is what a true member of that church would do, also. she forced us to go to services when we were teengers, which pissed me off because she still didn't GET it or even get their version of baptized, just commanded us to follow the rules of theirs that SHE wanted us to. i did a bible study until i was almost twenty, and then quit because...i'm not even sure if i believe in god.

I wasn't raised religiously at all, so I'm kind of *shrugs* about the whole thing. Doesn't matter what other people follow, as long as I'm not made to feel like I'm a bad person for not following their religion. (See my extended family and their rabid Christianity.) I do think there probably is a higher power, but who's to say who it is? And free will, man, we all have the power to pave our own paths. At least, that's what I think.

I love religious discussions. I grew up in a VERY strict Christian home, and we were actually missionaries for awhile in Papua New Guinea. I don't believe in anything anymore, really, that might resemble some sort of god or diety, but I do think that there is a certain energy or spirit after death that can stick around.

What do you believe?

Me? I don't believe in God, but I think religion can do a lot of good for individuals and I;m very, very involved in my Jewish community. I've had a few experiences relating to religion (but never God) where I just wept because I've been so overcome with the love I feel from these people and too these people and just... Man, the stories I could tell. I love being Jewish! SEE ICON.

Oh yay for polls! :)
I was very Catholic as a child but only because I didn't think about it very much (although even back then, I remember hating church, and not being very satisfied with the answers about death that my religion gave me). It was mainly after my mother's death about three years ago that I started actually pondering over my beliefs and making realizations, and eventually I came to identify as Agnostic, pretty much.
Which leads to a lot of frustration being in a Catholic school...I just console myself with the fact that I'll never be mandated to go to church again after the next two years.

I went to a Protestant church as a child. Up until I was about 6 probably. My mom wasn't really religious at all; it was my dad who insisted my sisters and I were baptised. I don't think it's fair to baptise young children though (I was four). It's basically forcing them to be in your religion, before they have the ability to say otherwise.

I'm an atheist, but Chrisitianity does still interest me. I find churches comforting, even though I have no belief in God.

I like this poll, I've been thinking about religion a lot lately and it's interesting to see what other people's opinions are.

I consider my lack of faith in any sort of god or religion extremely important to who I am and my every day life. That weird?

religion is a source of infinite lulz.

This was definitely the poll I wanted to fill out just now, for no apparent reason. If that makes any sense. I haven't had much sleep.

Is it weird for me to say that I just don't care? I'm open minded about what people believe in. I like listening in religious discussions. But it really is irrelevant to my life. My mother is an atheist; my father is agnostic; my brother is Catholic; I don't give. Religion has never been a huge part of my life.
