I personally do; I follow Wicca. Quite interesting, if you ask me.
The rest of my family is Catholic, but from the age of about six upwards, I realized it wasn't the one for me, so I went off and looked for a different religion, and at eight and a half, I found it. I have been part of this religion since. =D
Can I quickly ask for anyone who posts their religion, or if someone is atheist, NOT to bash other people's religions.

xD Atheists are believe there is humans and believe completely in evoloution, or something. xD No god, no higher power, or anything.
=P But I agree. xD I was just curious as to how many religions we could probably get here. xD

I'm atheist, but I lie to my dad and say agnostic because he's Mr. Mormon who wouldn't approve of his oldest daughter believing in such blasphemy. He can deal with me not being sure, but being completely against everything he believes... Not so much. He even got after me when I accidentally told my sister I didn't believe in God; with her being who she is, she blabbed off to him and got me in trouble. =p
Kinda funny... But I like to hear the stories he tells. At least that way, I'm not being ignorant -- I at least know what I'm not believing in. |

Tell him you nihilistic... that should cause some trouble.
Well im antitheist which means im against many of the ideas that modern religion is about. I Dont believe in externalizing our troubles for example, to me it just seems a little stupid. However that doesnt mean im not a spiritual person, im agnostic with regard to the existence of god... I just dont like many of the, hmm, side effects..? of how religion is worshiped.

I understand what you mean, and it seems now days a lot of people who are religious tend to be all " OMG JOIN US OR DIE!". No offense to any Jahovas Witnesses, but seriously, just why? Just knocking on people's doors then getting offended when they say " No thank you." xD |

I hate referring to myself as atheist, as that gives credit to religion. While I don't believe in any god, why should I even have to label myself as such? It's a little backwards if you ask me.

Nobody should force their opinion (religion or otherwise) on anyone else, including and especially their children. He should respect your views, whatever they are, even if he doesn't like them. Obviously, it may not be worth tearing apart your relationship with your parents, but it's something you may need to think about approaching at some time. I hate referring to myself as atheist, as that gives credit to religion. While I don't believe in any god, why should I even have to label myself as such? It's a little backwards if you ask me. You make a good point, so don't refer to yourself as anything, including atheist. As far as I go, the way I've always described myself is this way: I have my own views and opinions but I don't define them with a religion. No religion is written exactly as I think, so I don't follow any. I do have a lot of interest in religions and their history, though. Religion has played a larger role on the history of humanity than anything else. |
