What religion are you and why? [I Love Researching Religions]

If you're atheist/agnostic, why are you as such? This could be a loaded question but im curious to see what you all have to say here.

I was raised Catholic but I am now Episcopalian.

@peskyone can you identify the main differences between catholicism and Episcopalian?

@astrosandorbits

There are many but the important issues, for me, are:

Women can become priests in the Episcopal Church.
Gay marriages are allowed in the Episcopal Church.
The Episcopal Church is accepting to everyone - if you walk into any church you are allowed to receive communion (not so in the Catholic Church)

I would have to say the sexual abuse cover up, in the Catholic Church, REALLY cemented my distrust in the institution.
