    I was brought up Catholic, but I really don't like their style. They have no idea how to keep people in the church, at least Americans. I pick and choose from different religions now. Agnostic, I guess? In my college World Religions course, I really liked some of the ideas of Judaism and Buddhism.

      Christian. I'm not religious, at all. It's not a religion to me, it's a belief that takes much faith. Religion is crap...man made, only to be divisive.

        I agree, what Jesus taught is in essence the same as the past spiritual masters.

            Proud Catholic.

            Though I don't attend church, as I don't need somebody elses interpretation of a book that I can, and have, read for myself.

              With the holidays coming up, I thought this was cute:

              What denomination?

              A woman goes to the post office to buy stamps for her Chanukah cards.
              She says to the clerk, "May I have 50 Chanukah stamps?"

              "What denomination?" replies the clerk.

              The woman says "OY vey! Has it come to this? OK give me 6 Orthodox, 12 conservative, and 32 Reform."

              Stolen from here

                I think it's interesting the balance of Christian/Atheist we have here.

                    Terrible quality, but I HAVE to share this. I love this song.

                      God damn, what a horrible recording. I couldn't even listen to half of that shit. I sure hope the flying spaghetti monster originated from south park and not this horrid shit. ****.

                        Originated from Richard Dawkins, he uses it in his speeches/lectures/debates alot.

                        EDIT: Nope, I was wrong. That was where I first heard it.

                        WIKI: "It was created in 2005 by Bobby Henderson as a satirical protest to the decision by the Kansas State Board of Education to require the teaching of intelligent design as an alternative to biological evolution in public schools. According to Henderson, since the intelligent design movement uses ambiguous references to an unspecified "Intelligent Designer", this leaves open any conceivable entity to fulfill that role, even a Flying Spaghetti Monster.[4]"

                          You have not seen the last of his noodly appendages. We are the silent majority!

                            This might be considered my first 'epic' bump haha. I missed this the first time around. I was raised christian (protestant) but am an (even though it clearly isn't a religion) Atheist.

                              The one established religion, I mostly agree with, is Hinduism.

                                Never been religious, wasn't raised religious and definitely fit into the category of "I don't give a s**t". I think 97% of the world's problems (and historical problems) are due to religious people (notice I didn't say religions, that's like blaming guns for murder).
