What are your religious beliefs? How do they affect your everyday life? How did you come into these beliefs? What were your previous beliefs?
I'm allowing two votes, because sometimes people are between two beliefs/religions.
I was raised Catholic, when I turned 20, from the influence of my parents, I decided I wanted to be a priest. I studied theology on my own, doing a lot of reading. I eventually began reading philosophy, which lead me to begin studying world religions. I became more interested in Taoism, and eventually ascribed to those beliefs. After I left home, I came back to Christianity, and just sort of viewed the teachings of Jesus as a sort of guide for how to live life.
Essentially, for me anything outside of the gospels doesn't really impact my beliefs. I do quote Romans to people to explain to them about Hell, but outside of that. I just try to take the lessons that Jesus and the Dao De Ching taught, and live with an open mind.
If you post in this thread, please do not post just one word or 'I am this religion.' Give a little bit of detail.
