What is your religion? And why? and did your parents(or people you grew up with) also have the same religion? I do not want big discussions, and name calling(basically please do not ban it to the D&D) I am an atheist. My parents send me to a christian school, they wanted me to know what the religion was about, but they both are not christians.
why? i just asked wich religion people have, to get an indication about this site. If it goes to the D&D i will not get a good indication. And furthermore this is not a thread where people should discus the religion.
that is what i'm afraid of. But i thought that if i posted in the D&D that it would defenitly turn into a riligous discussion thread. And i hoped that it might not if i posted it in the Hangout. we will see.
My mom was raised Baptist, but switched to Presbyterian; my dad, Episcopalian. (In the context of this poll, that's all Christian.) They decided that my sister and I should be able to make our own choices about religion, so we never went to church with them as children. To my mom's surprise, we both ended up atheist.
Raised Baptist, both parents are. Discovered Deism in AP history class of all places and I consider myself a Deist to this day.
There are poly-theistic religions (i.e. Hinduism). I guess I'd be poly-religious. I find all traditions pretty damn fascinating, but don't ascribe myself to any one of them. I'm probably most strongly drawn toward easter religions like Buddhism and Taoism, but of all the religion's leaders/prophets/founders/etc, Jesus was by far the most influential on me. So, I'm sort of a Christo-Budd-Tao-ist with humanist tendencies.
My dad and my mom are both Presbyterian - I became Presbyterian when I was 8, when my dad decided that going to church was better for me than sitting around watching NASCAR all sunday afternoon. I went to church for 10 years, moved to Austin and tried to get involved with the Pres church up there, and found nothing but snotty uppity people who actually managed to make me feel like an outcast. I haven't been back to church since then. I'm currently without church, and I like it - it gives me the freedom to explore the other religions as I please.
