666

I'm an agnostic existentialist.

Ghost Dance



tremble paleface, tremble.

Atheist of catholic extraction.

Church of Homer Simpson.

pretty much what it is

Agnostic on a good day

Atheist when i am pissy

agnostic

jewish

Catholic.

Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis.
Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis.
Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, dona nobis pacem.

Nominally Catholic, but not actively.

atheist with roots in german lutheran, jewish and buddhism

i'm a traditionalist jew, actually; i follow traditions and am not very active.

Catholic. Which is to say, the best religion. In your face, other religions.

Atheist, and convinced of it

Christian catholic. I do believe in God, but barely go to church.

Quite a few Catholics here..

I am fiercely atheist but i've learned to respect people who have faith in whatever god they believe in from my mum, who's a devoted catholic, but one who is totally lacking any sort of hipocrisy. It helped that we were never forced something like religion by both parents, and in a way it made IT possible for my brothers and sisters to respect her faith and religious customs. Seriosuly, she is one of the most tolerant people i know. My brother told me this story of when the pope died and he observed her silently weeping while watching tv with a jewish lady that she's friends with. At one point he said that they both hugged each other and wept together. I've found that a very powerful image of tolerance between people of different religious backgrounds.

Thats great. I know a few hardcore catholics though, and some can just come on too strong with it. Those types who want to be defined by what religion they are.

since everyone is getting more specific, I will too.

I'm more Lakota-Sioux Ghost Dance vs. the somewhat watery Paiute (no disrespect to Wovoka).



BEHOLD, THE PORTENT OF YR DOOM:

I'd say pretty much the same as Pantophobia. Agnostic but Atheist when pissed off. Up until a few years ago I would have probably said Atheist but I suppose I've become more open minded to other possibilities. Not that I remotely believe in a God but on the other hand I can't proved his/her/it's non-existence either. Plus that cunt Dawkins gives Atheists a bad name.

Also, I think on the last Census I put Mercerism as my religion. It was at the time that there was that internet campaign to get Jedi recognised as a proper religion. Me and a friend thought Mercerism was a slightly more obscure and cool fictional sci-fi religion so we put that. It was classic 'students being hilarious and oh so clever' type stuff and I apologise profusely for it and, in my defense, would like it noted that I never once stole a traffic cone, road sign or any other piece of public furniture when other intoxicated or sober...m'lud.

Hah.

I don't know exactly why I feel so strongly towards Catholicism. My parents are mostly agnostic- my dad is one of those people who collects far eastern knick knacks, so we have Buddhas and a Ganesh displayed around the house. There is a crucifix in the kitchen that my dad bought in Spain, and I have rosary beads in my room. Whenever I try to bring Religion up I usually find that both my dad and sister are atheists, which bugs me a little.

i'm catholic by birth but waver between unquestioning papism, and bewildered agnosticism.

it's surprising to see so many english catholics here.

NONE.

i was raised catholic but managed to get it out of my system-- thank god!



is it because the protestants are hard at work, trying to buy their way into heaven?

:eek:


ha! you misspelled Wovoka-- heretic!!

there aren't many catholics in england

yeah, since henry VIII -- but my point had to do w/ protestant morality... oh never mind

That's none of your business

I was born into a liberal Irish-Catholic family but I turned atheist when the "religious question" started to concern me in high school. Then I became agnostic and have been ever since.

But mostly I'm apathetic.

i understoiod your point. anyway, catholics didn't start getting persecuted and were still the dominant religion until elizabeth the first's reign.

Born a Catholic but now an atheist.

ugh.

it's hard to type with my shaman gloves on. :(

damn what is with all the catholicness? well out of 2 billion christians, half of them are catholic, and it's most associated with the Ireland, Italy, France, Spain, Latin America, Northeast US and Quebec

Thurston and Lee were raised catholic so throw them in there,

Atheist.

NONE

Same here.

born a mormon, but now nothing

If that was a joke, good one.

I'm a devout Christian, of the Anglican kind (of course, Church of England in my case). The Church of England's 39 Articles just about sum up my position, really.

I'm comfortable with all branches of the Anglican church, but the one we're involved with is more of the Evangalism-oriented variety than the Anglo-catholic type. Both ends of Anglicanism are fine by me though.

Our church, if you care:

Humanity, that is my religion.
