How religious are you?
Born and raised Catholic. Indoctrinated from birth, Catholic school from kindergarten to high school graduation.
We were poor white trash that ‘qualified’ due to low income and above average brains to attend Catholic school
By the time my younger brother was ready for high school, my fathers income had risen to the point my folks would have had to pay for his Catholic education, he went to a public high school.
My indoctrination continued through early adulthood by becoming a member of the knights of columbus.
I didn’t really start forming my own opinions until I got up and moved to Floriduh.
When you don’t know you’re being brainwashed, the realisation can lead to strange dreams.
The nail in the coffin moment for me is relatively recent however, when it was finally revealed that the pope’s knew about the Pedo priests and did nothing to protect the children.

There's no room for religion in a functioning brain, which is why conservatives are disproportionately religious

Re: How religious are you?
Atheist here, as are a few other members, I'll let them speak for themselves.
Started life as a Catholic, albeit as a member of a rather unfaithful family, just nominally so. Had between my early teens until my later 20's quite a little spiritual journey, along with the family mostly leaving the church into other things, and Dad becoming a Nordic pagan. But the bullshit all smears into more bullshit, and it just becomes clear what the end of a real journey like that is.

If you can't be a good example, you can still serve as a horrible warning.

Re: How religious are you?
Raised Catholic but got out of that as soon as I learned the true histories of organized religions.
I dont consider myself Christian or anything else except "spiritual"...and even that sounds kind of corny.
Not sure if agnostic is the right term as I do believe there is something more than us. Who or What that something is I dont know.

I guess I might be as religious as it gets around here. But I admit I stopped attending church regularly.

Re: How religious are you?
Raised catholic, forced to be an alterboy, sunday school, communion and the whole nine yards. For me it started when the people I'd see drinking and doing drugs with my dad show up all dressed up for Sunday mass acting all pious. It got me thinking how hypocritical these people were, my father included. It was the chrysalis for my disdain of organized religion. ALL religions are bullshit, yeah I said it.
Faith is simple medicine for desperate souls.

Re: How religious are you?
Seeing lefties in here claiming not to be religious, while lacking the self-awareness to realize they strictly adhere to the dogma of liberalism and worship of the state, is morbidly hilarious.

This is what happens when you can't call retarded children retards. Their ego inflates beyond what their drippy mouth can keep up with. Republucans have no way of getting votes other than introducing lead to the water.

I believe in the church of baseball.
Also, Jesus was a Jewish Black man. FWIW.

The problem is not that there is evil in the world, the problem is that there is good. Because otherwise, who would care?

He sure as hell didn't look anything like the depictions seen in Western churches.
Neither did any of the apostles (yeah, that includes Peter and Paul). They were all nice Middle Eastern Jews, making supposed Christians who are antisemitic hypocritical morons.

So why isn't the "Bible" found in the fiction section?

Raised Catholic, converted to Lutheran for the wife, and am now more of a deist. I want to believe there is a higher power but I dont believe there is one just solely for the human species, one that is judging our actions at every turn.

Re: How religious are you?
so this temple was built in South America in 100 AD. Notice the columns and how they are constructed. How do people on two different continents that never met end up with the basic same design?

Debates on religion will continue long after we are all gone and forgotten.

And again, studies show conservatives give more to charities than Liberals.
