    I was raised some sect of Christianity. Honestly don't remember it. For a while I was agnostic. Much more lately I've been more an agnostic atheist.

    My parents attempted to make me a Catholic but it didn't really work and I am now an atheist.

    Not really a religion, but theological non-cognitivist with a streak of pantheism.

    I don't believe in god but I believe its possible there is a god/creator. so I guess im more of an agnostic. I don't think im smart enough to KNOW and either is anyone else lol. but i 100% don't believe any of the religions out there like Christianity,Muslim etc.

    Well, I was making what I thought was fairly good progress in going back to the Catholic church. I posted previously on "LGBT and Religious Beliefs," it's a rather lengthy hopeful message. I used to be very non-religious, recently started easing back into the Catholic church, and now have been dismissed from being able to receive the Eucharist because of my views on LGBT rights. I have been explicitly told I am not Catholic. Any major Catholic figures who have a positive view on LGBT rights, who comforted me when I was terrified of living alone or going to hell, are apparently not Catholics and have cursed themselves by breaking the oath they swore with God when becoming priests/nuns/etc.

    It's funny because when I really didn't believe, I insisted that I shouldn't take the Eucharist as a nonbeliever. I took it whenever I was forced to church. Now when I felt a true glimmer of faith returning, I cannot receive it.

    In short, I really do not know. I believe in a Creator. I guess I'm back to spiritual non-religious.

    I don't really have a religion, I think my family grew up as Church of England but I myself have not been to church for things other then weddings, funerals and christenings/baptisms. I do believe in god and angels though and in a higher power.

    I don't have one. I've never felt the need to acquire one.

    I'm been raised in a Christian Catholic family, did took two sacraments (baptised and first communion) at the usual age but refused to take the Confirmation due to my disagreement with the religious hiearchy views' on some issues, so I consider myself more spiritual.
    I do believe there is something, I don't care how you call it. Since the Christian have the view that at some point people was given free will, and told said people not to judge each other, honestly I don't see the point in the strict religious people forcing each other to live a certain way, New Testament never said to do so, pretty much the opposite, live your life in a good way and help and understand each other.
    I base my morals on philosophy (specially ancient greece) aswell as the New Testament.
