Are you guys religious? If so which one?

CanniBal1320 · 2021-10-27T12:24:46+00:00

I don't confirm with any religion but I do believe in the existence of God or a higher power.

Edit- I was born a Hindu btw

captain609 · 2021-10-27T13:03:08+00:00

Agnostic

PLForEver · 2021-10-27T09:54:25+00:00

I have an absence of belief in the existence of deities, therefore I could classify my self as an atheist. Does that make me religious? Not in my own classification system.

Starmind0 · 2021-10-27T17:33:22+00:00

And you are all valid and beautiful.

Hauntingmycorpse · 2021-10-27T13:21:15+00:00

Atheist cause none of the others make sense and are only used as a means of control and domination

yuval_D · 2021-10-27T11:28:39+00:00

I was born into a Jewish family but I choose to be an atheist

NeerajShedge · 2021-10-27T12:08:05+00:00

Born a hindu and still quite a religious hindu

viikoko · 2021-10-27T14:31:55+00:00

Shit, I voted "other" thinking atheist wasn't and option

Vanriel · 2021-10-27T16:42:37+00:00

I honestly don't know what I believe. I think that the idea of organised religion is dumb. We are all different so why would what we believe be the same?

ahmedino95 · 2021-10-27T17:38:24+00:00

I'm a pantheist. I believe that the entire universe, everything in existence, every cell and atom, everyone and everything is all God. We are all one and belong to a higher collective consciousness.

helicoprion08 · 2021-10-27T23:16:44+00:00

Roman Catholic

Actually a study was done on r/mensrights a few years ago.

Here are the results for religion.

https://pragmatarian.home.blog/2019/02/07/what-makes-an-mra-part-1-summary-level-demographics/
Religiosity & spirituality.
The data from this survey indicate that the men’s rights community on Reddit is a fairly areligious group. Seven out of ten individuals reported belonging to a non-religious group – 33.2% identified as agnostic, 36.8% as atheist, and 0.9% as anti-theist. The remaining 29.1% of respondents broke down as follows:
Buddhist: 1.8%
Chinese Traditionalist: 0.9%
Catholic Christian: 6.8%
Protestant Christian: 11.8%
Eastern Orthodox Christian: 1.4%
Jewish: 2.3%
Muslim: 0.9%
Sikh: 0.5%
Other: 2.7%

rainbow_bro_bot · 2021-10-27T14:24:01+00:00

I'm atheist.

At primary school I had protestant Christianity shoved down my throat. Every morning the class had to stand up and say the Lord's Prayer (this wasn't a choice, we just had to do it like it or not) and at weekly assemblies we had to sing Jesus songs ("I've got that joy joy joy joy down in my heart" ugh).

What a waste of time that was.

PARACHUTING_MOOSE · 2021-10-27T09:50:18+00:00

Agnostic-Catholic.

TheDwiin · 2021-10-27T13:11:32+00:00

I'm Norse Pagan, a worshiper of Hel.

Don't worry, I'm not racist with it, as I acknowledge that the Vikingr weren't homogeneous. There were African and Byzantine Vikings.

elebrin · 2021-10-27T13:42:06+00:00

I don't think the question is a good one.

Do I believe? Not sure. I do follow Christian traditions and culture, and I have a strong backing in Christian mythology.

Religions, however, are more than just some beliefs or dogma. They are a system of beliefs, but they are also a set of rituals and a community, and different religions put the emphasis on different bits.

Christianity really subverts that reality. The core belief is accepting Jesus as your savior and taking that internal journey of belief, and to many Christians, that is the only activity that makes you Christian. Other religions aren't really like that. Islam absolutely requires active participation in all three (obeying the pillars/ceremonies, having a deep personal belief, and participating in the community).

Culturally speaking, I celebrate Christian holidays and have participated in Christian ceremonies including observing several of the Sacraments. If we were talking about any other religion, I would be considered Christian. I do consider myself part of the Christian tradition and culture. Nobody from another tradition would call me anything but Christian after observation.

That said, I don't particularly carry the belief that I have been or need to be "saved." I find Christian mythology to be relevant to my life, and to my understanding of Western culture, but there is a lot dogmatically that I do not accept as objective truth.

Scottish_Jeebus · 2021-10-27T15:02:48+00:00

I was born into a Scottish catholic family

Though I don’t believe in god and my family don’t practice I would still identify as Roman Catholic

MrElderwood · 2021-10-27T13:25:58+00:00

I'm not religious. I just don't trust them and faith has always been a massive letdown!

My take on others religion? "If it works for you, great. But please don't try to 'convert' me!"

I'm surprised you left out the 'None' option in the poll, I would have thought that it would have been interesting to compare. As such, I can't see the results!

Reddit_Sux_Hardcore · 2021-10-27T14:44:41+00:00

Religion is bad. We need to get rid of them all.

Jezz_ah_bells · 2021-10-27T12:08:47+00:00

Not many Jews I guess

DubsPackage · 2021-10-27T12:33:40+00:00

Not too religious.

Christian-light or deist.

Areebu1 · 2021-10-27T14:50:49+00:00

Born a Muslim in India. Have pretty much remained that way and don't see it changing.

theCourtofJames · 2021-10-27T15:52:28+00:00

I'm not religious but if I was it'd be the Greek gods. Those guys and gals are awesome.

Raised Orthodox. Now I'm an Atheist

Reiwa_ · 2021-10-27T17:10:37+00:00

Not necessarily religious, but I've found myself in interest at Roman paganism.

If I have to align to a religion of sorts, Taoism, but it can be argued whether is is a Religion per se.

Teguray874 · 2021-10-27T18:29:02+00:00

No. Agnostic

AHHHHHHHH123xj · 2021-10-27T23:22:35+00:00

I was raised Christian but I'm still figuring it out

dungeonmonkey69 · 2021-10-28T00:41:53+00:00

Non religious. Even atheism has a dogmatic partisan stank to it these days.

Aggravating-Equal-97 · 2021-10-28T00:45:45+00:00

Would say Christian on a particularly pious day...generally, I believe that there is a higher power "out there" doing its own thing. Probably having a blast watching us destroy each other over things that a fucking 9-year old is smart enough to figure out.

Its_K_M · 2021-10-28T04:24:55+00:00

I am a Hindu but I don’t really believe in god, is that weird? But I still consider myself Hindu

chintan22 · 2021-10-28T05:41:10+00:00

Atheist in the sense of don't believe in a divinity, but culturally hindu, in the sense i value the tradition and legends, and find them relevant.

It's a school of thought called charwaka, which is a part of the Hindu community.

RottingVillain666 · 2021-10-28T09:57:17+00:00

My grandma is a voodoo witch and i’m also interested in satanism

mug-buliku · 2021-10-28T13:10:10+00:00

Atheist, irreligious, mildly antitheist.

imextremelymoderate · 2021-10-29T08:36:16+00:00

Not related to men's rights at all. This sub is so pathetic at this point

SupaJenkins · 2021-10-28T04:37:17+00:00

Sorry, but I've met enough crazy religious people (99% Christians, crazy ex included) to steer clear of the concept of religion entirely.
