Does anybody follow the religion they were raised in? I'm asking the question because I noticed most Jews Catholics and Muslims follow the religion they were raised in. But most evangelicals jettison the beliefs when the opportunity comes up.

I grew up in IFB Church. (That's Independent Fundamental Baptist for all of you infidels. 😝) in high school I started messing around with wicca. Then I had no religious preference going into the Air Force. (They even stamped that on my dog tags.) I found religion in a Pentecostal church. Then I went back to being baptist. Southern Baptist, not IFB. Then nothing. Then Roman Catholic.

Right now I would consider myself non- practicing Catholic, with some Buddhist, Mythopoetic, and Gnostic ideas. Far from the religion of my origin.

So do you still follow the religion of your origin?

I was born and raised Catholic. First I was a lapsed Catholic in my late twenties, and now I am an agnostic atheist.

Gosh, you are a spiritual gypsy.

My father was anti Christian. So I suppose I should have said no.

It’s more participation, which is active, than following, which is passive.

I was baptized as a baby and that was the beginning and end of my religious involvement.

The denominations have shifted but I've always been a Christian

I did, then I didn't, now I do.
