    I am a non-believer in god/s (I do believe in other things, like humanity, love, et al). I was raised in a religious home, by a very religious mother and a lukewarm father. I always thought it a fairy tale but called myself a Christian throughout childhood.

    I believe in a higher power, however, I don't go to church. It seems a little far fetched to me. I left organized religion because I was asking questions no one could answer, or wouldn't answer. I decided I liked thinking for myself better than being told what to think.

    I was raised as a christian but never really believed it. Just did the whole Christian thing because my parents made me

    Now I am a pagan.
