I was born into two religions.
My mother was unitarian and my father Presbyterian.
I was raised unitarian pretty much.
We were the cool family on the road!
😂

@Dusty101 can't say I know anything of either

@JovialPlutonian I know nothing on Presbyterian...
So I actually wasn't born into his..
My parents were hippies... My mums parents denounced the Catholic when something happened to my grandfather as a teen.
And that was in 1915.
He was so cool for his time!

Yes, Catholicism. I rejected it in my late teens. I'd say some of what I feel to be right comes from the early brainwashing, though.

Have you chosen to be execommunicated?@alan20

@JovialPlutonian I don't know if they do that nowadays. I really couldn't care less. I no longer believe in any religion and that's it.

Born and raised a Catholic until I was 16. I don't follow any religion now.
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
Why is that? @FreeSpirit1
FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F
@JovialPlutonian Religion became illogical to me and I don't need it in my life to function as good person.

@MistyCee it lacks substance
@JovialPlutonian It does seem to lack substance, and a unique vision, really.
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
It's just a form of control and it's losing its control over its followers @MistyCee

Lately I have a knack for people rediscovering their religious roots.

Pretty much have the same beliefs I was raised with, and still follow the teachings
