Are any of you religious? How does your religion affect your life?

Grew up catholic now I’m atheist. I like Buddhism. I feel like I need some spiritual practice to keep me grounded. Rituals are important. I believe in family, marriage and I don’t believe in divorce. I guess if anything out of being a Catholic I was always prepared to not be divorced. I guess when I say I don’t believe in divorce I don’t mean I don’t think it should be illegal. Rather I don’t believe I would ever divorce after being married. That to me is for life and once you become family it’s not in me to try to undo that.

I’m Orthodox. My religion helps me stay motivated to be healthy because treating my body poorly is a sin. Other than that, I think I’m relatively a regular woman.

I keep my beliefs to myself. Why advertise what you believe in. Most do it as some form of self promotion.

I'm Methodist.

My beliefs give me the motivation to be the best version of myself that I can be and give me a vision of what comes after this earthly life.

My beliefs give me peace and help me to understand that the injustices of this earthly realm will be balanced out in the life to come.

I'm not, but I deeply wish I was.

I grew out of imaginary friends by the time I was 8.

I believe in God but I’m not religious. I guess I’m more spiritual

I'm not religious but I'm not necessarily saying i don't believe in God either

Roman Catholic

Nope. Left it when I left a cult. 🤷‍♀️

I’m not. I grew up Catholic, switched to Buddhism and eventually became an Atheist. I just gave up on religion because I honestly found it pointless.

I find that it's a mathematical improbability that our universe is the original one given the knowledge that eventually, if not currently, we will be able to fully simulate universes. So there may be a "god/creator" but I don't believe them to be worthy of worship. And I take personal issue with the gods represented by most religion, abrahamic or otherwise.

I am a troll.

Life is funny and no political philosophy and religion can explain it wholesale for me. I lost my jimmies in the mid 20s (still in mid 20s) and I am enjoying it ever since.

I was brought up as a Catholic, lapsed and became a secular humanist / atheist but recently I found myself returning to Catholicism.

evangelical

I believe in The Eagle. Let me know if you want me to elaborate. It effects my life because I value individuality and inner strength.
