The "bible" thread got me to wondering this. Were you baptized or raised in faith and are you still in your religion today (still go to church) if you were?

Nope. I come from a mildly religious family but thankfully it was never FORCED on me.

I was raised Roman Catholic, with all the attendant sacraments. I converted to Pentecostalism 10 years ago, and gradually backed away from that as well. I now consider myself a hopeful agnostic.

I was baptized, went to Catholic School for 8 years and made my Confirmation. I have my own beliefs, I don't have to go church every sunday to have faith.

I believe in God and I guess I'm more 'spiritual' than anything. But I don't go to church regularly on anything like that. I wasn't raised in a religious household either. I think people innately know what's right and what's wrong, can decipher good from evil and I'm one of those people. So I'm good.

Was raised Methodist but I have my own spiritual relationship with God that no church or religion dictates.

Not at all. My mom's family is Catholic and my dad's is Baptist, but growing up we didn't really practice anything, aside from generic universal religious traditions (like Christmas and Easter.) We only went to church for weddings and funerals.

Spiritual, faithful, and all that jazz...but I do not (and have no desire to) subscribe to any organized religion at the moment.

I grew up in a mixed religious household. My mom is Roman Catholic, while my dad is Jewish. They both respected each others religion and gave the kids leeway to experience both sides. As we got older though, I think the contrast of it became a little too convoluted and our house became less and less religious based. As a result, I'm not very religious. I was baptized Catholic, but I am not practicing anything at the moment.
