DH and I are both Jewish

Non-denominational Christian.

Christian - Non-Denominational
DH is Lutheran, and since we're by his family I go to church with them. Not my favorite, but it's a continuing discussion in our house. -
Catholic
-
Agnostic/humanist, somewhere in that territory. I don't really know, to be honest.
-
We're Catholic.
We were both raised in pretty liberal churches though, so Pope Francis really reflects our beliefs (for the most part). I consider myself a cafeteria Catholic - there are certain parts of the doctrine that I just don't agree with. I supposed I'm borderline agnostic...
-
Christian. We go to a nondenominational church, but I was raised in a Baptist church.
-
Non-denominational Christian. My dad was a Methodist pastor growing up.
-
Catholic through and through.
DH and I tend to associate with the more liberal and social justice side of Catholocism but in my experience, that is most practicing Catholics in the US. It's pretty important to us although we definitely miss mass out of laziness and all. We giving our son the pope's name for his middle name so that probably ups our religious cred.
We are more religious than most of our friends/siblings so people think us having two close in age is because we were hardcore religious and following the birth control rule. Nope, just not religious enough for pull n pray to work.
-
Christian. We are members of a Southern Baptist church now. We would join a good PCA church if there wasn't a good Baptist option. Our beliefs align most with reformed theology, so we would only be members of a church that reflects that.

Non-denominational Christian.
-
Christian. I am very active in my Assemblies of God church, but I consider myself a bapti-costal haha
-
@dillonlion: Jewish! That's awesome. DH is all about learning all about the Jewish faith right now. He's been reading a lot from a man named Art Katz who is a Jew converted to Christianity and we find the Jewish religion so fascinating.
-
First United (Church of Canada)
-
Christian!
-
we're both Jewish.
-
No religious affiliation. Though both DH and I were raised in Christian households (me, JW & Baptist and DH Pentecostal).
-
Non-denominational Christian. Raised Southern Baptist, but I don't agree with a lot of how they believe.
-
I used to be non-denominational christian, but these days I think I'm more agnostic.
-
Raised Catholic but more of agnostic now. DH was raised non denominational Christian and is in between agnostic and atheist.
-
I'm Christian. DH is Catholic.....
-
I consider myself to be Agnostic.
-
None really. I was baptized United but don't practice or believe in anything really.
-
@Smurfette: Try out Buckhead Church! They have a great children's program too. We love!
-
@chopsuey: I tried Northpoint years ago, once, and I didn't like it. I will tell you more about it tomorrow. It wasn't for me.
-
@Smurfette: My first experience was Northpointonline.tv when I was still in CA. Didn't like it either. HA!
Anyway, can't wait for tomorrowwww!!!!!
-
I'm agnostic and DH is Catholic.
-
None, I'm an atheist.
D went to Catholic school until he was kicked out for repeatedly asking what kind of god would send non-Catholics like Ghandi to hell.
I was raised in a very Southern Baptist home and went to church 3 days a week. I had some very bad experiences at different churches as I got older and we moved around, and eventually stopped going.
As an adult I started questioning more, and teetered between being an agnostic and an atheist for a long time. I didn't want to be an atheist. I still WANT to believe there's a god, and an afterlife. It's a comforting thought that I wish I still believed. The loss of that...eternal safety net...has left me in tears more often than I'd like to admit.
I'm still not completely comfortable calling myself an atheist, though. For me, an atheist is someone who unequivocally believes there is no god. I'm pretty sure there's no god, but I don't know for certain.
I get nervous, sometimes, about raising a child as an atheist. Not about teaching him morals or anything like that, but I live in a fairly conservative area, and I don't want E to suffer because of our (lack of) belief. When I was growing up there was an atheist family that lived on our block and I wasn't allowed to play with their children because of it.
I also really, really miss the community that comes along with church. D and I have been talking about starting to go to a Unitarian church for that reason (and we were married at my IL's Unitarian church).
ETA: Haha sorry for the novella to a simple question--it's just not a simple question for me!
-
Christian: grew up Protestant, baptized Episcopalian, now attend mass with Catholic DH.
-
None. I don't think about religion in my daily life, unless I'm having a discussion about others' beliefs. Religion isn't on our radar, so I wouldn't even know what category of "non-religious" we'd be in. So, maybe agnostic?
-
non-denominational Christian, AKA "Jesus Girl."
I currently attend an Assemblies of God church, but grew up in a non-denominational, somewhat charismatic church.
-
Catholic
I really like seeing all of these responses. It's interesting to see the diversity here!

Non denominational Christian

@lovehoneybee: i was raised atheist, i do not believe there is a god, i don't know that as fact, but that's what i believe. i convinced mr. bird to attend a UU church after being a lapsed catholic (he went to church every sunday, even through college while in a fraternity he got is ass up every sunday and went, it was shortly before we met that he had distanced himself from the catholic church), he was searching and found comfort in the routine and community of attending church, but didn't agree with most of the catholic church's teachings. UU was perfect for him (each church is different, but the one closest to us is amazing), it had all the parts of church and religion that he loved without all the parts that had driven him away. i started attending with him at one point, i found it to be meditative. it wasn't about a god to me, it was about spending a couple hours each wk focusing on what kind of person i wanted to be, my place in this world, how powerful we are as individuals and even more so when we come together and the positive influence we can have. it was a truly beautiful experience and i would highly suggest giving it a shot even if you aren't into the god part of it or most organized religion. i haven't gone since mr. bird has been working wk ends and i miss it (i still don't believe in a god, apparently i just like church
)

Agnostic.

Cafeteria Catholic because I take what I like from what's offered, and leave the rest for others to enjoy.
Pope Francis!
-
I grew up Lutheran. I don't attend church anymore though. I guess I'm agnostic.
-
Christian.
-
I was curious about this...so I though I'd revive this thread!
I identify as a Secular Humanist and have attended Unitarian Universalist fellowship in the past.
-
I am Catholic, my husband was baptized in the Church of England but is not practicing. He isn't really interested in converting to Catholicism, but he is on board with our children being baptized in the church and attending Catholic schools. He is the best
Pope Francis!
