    I do,somewhat . I joke around and say that God is my dad and call the devil uncle Lucy... I think it's also funny How they kinda have a hades and zeus relationship when explained in Christianity. Of course as a child I was always threatened by going to hell but didn't really care. It amazes me that even as a child I understood what they were talking about (preachers at the churches I've visited ) and applied it as common sense. Even now, I guess I associated myself with psychics and new age... there is science and logic behind it. I do think faith and trust is important though <3.

    No. I vilify it. I am ashamed that I ever even associated with such people.

    My parents aren't religious and always said they wanted me to make up my own mind and that they'd support me in whatever I wanted to believe just as long as it wasn't hateful. I've basically always been an atheist. I tried to make myself believe in something in my early teens, but I could never convince myself that it made sense.
