Religious beliefs poll.

1) Agnostic

But every single person in my entire family is a strict Catholic. This will be difficult :/

 

atheist and proud

 

Christian. More specifically, Roman Catholic.

Threads about religion never end well on EC. To all those who insist on being ignorant instead of just answering the question, everyone is entitled to their own beliefs and opinions. Also, you can be religious and still "believe in science." :icon_roll

 

Every Native American tribe has its own views on death and the afterlife (which is much different than Christan views of Heaven), a creation story, meditation/prayer, spiritual dances, and the significance of Mother Earth. We are taught that both men and women have different spiritual medicine that is used to help others. What I particularly like is that being Trans* is called Winyanktehca and holds special spiritual significance. I am to be taught both the male and female spiritual practices. :icon_bigg

 

Cool.

 

I use Christian because I'm a "believer" and try to live my life accordingly, but don't attend church or identify with any particular religion.

 

I wish more people knew that. People are always shocked when I tell them I believe in God and believe that evolution is correct. The two beliefs aren't mutually exclusive

 

Although I used to think I was established with this, I keep on finding myself questioning just which religion I'd say I'm in.

Brought up catholic but that isn't working for me, but I'd still consider myself a Christian. Though I must say that I find myself thinking more and more that religion is man-made and thus has its flaws and I feel these flaws are why some of these religions are so bigoted.

When it comes right down to it, I do believe there is God.

 

As far as I'm aware there are two kinds of Satanists: the one where they are teenagers just trying to be rebellious so they pick up the moniker of Satanist because it's edgy; and the 'proper' Satanists where there's a very heavy emphasis on free will and treating others respectfully but "not turning the other cheek" or otherwise sacrificing your own needs greatly. I'm not sure if they actually worship Satan/Lucifer as a deity or if it's just a kind of mythical archetype (Lucifer was the embodiment and instructor of free will in the Christian bible).

I'm neither of these though so I can't speak from personal experience!

 

I am Agnostic and I believe in hope, serenity, and peace.

 

atheist

 

Very interesting, Ridiculous, thanks for the info.

 

Christian

 

I just saw that the term Apatheist is a used term... I think that better describes me than Agnostic.

 

I was raised in the Roman Catholic tradition, but now I identify as agnostic.

 

I'm an atheist.

 

I'm a nondenominational Christian, formerly Southern Baptist.

I also believe in evolution, woo hoo!

 

Atheist.

 

I'm not sure. I have grown up a Christian, and for the past six years or so I've had a strong faith in God. However, I no longer believe in Him, and I don't know whether I identify as Christian or whether I want to. It's confusing, and sometimes scary too.
