This was pretty interesting!
But, to be honest - I feel completely content without religion in my life. I'm content in what science is able to explain, and I'm comfortable with how I live my life. I'm ok with the fact that there might not be an afterlife, because I know I'm living my life treating others well, and keeping myself happy along the way.
I wasn't raised with religion in my life, and at this moment in time, I most likely won't be searching for where I "fit". I'm quite happy where I am now  |

Im a die hard agnostic. I consider myself to be extremely "spiritual" but not at ALL religious. I do not believe in a "god" but I do believe in a higher power so to speak... I really thing my answers (well, at least 1-5) make a lot of sense. Universalism and Buddhism are sooooo interesting to me.

Secular Humanism is basically spot on for me. I went to Unitarian Universalist church as a young child and still do occasionally. I converted to Roman Catholicism in 4th grade and have regretted it since about three months after the fact. I identify as agnostic for the most part, but agree with/believe in a lot of the things listed in the descriptions of my top 5 or so. |

This is pretty much what I expected. Not that I practice Baha'i faith or even know what it is. I was raised and am a practicing Catholic, but I have a good deal of ambivalence about certain tenets of the church and feel very strongly about others. My spirituality really comes from my involvement in a 12 step fellowship. That really informs my Catholicism. Very cool survey though. |

This is really quite interesting to me as am have been/am being raised as a Roman Catholic, but I knew there must've been a better faith for me as I don't believe much of it  I'm now going to go and google Neo-Pagan
Oh and can someone explain the difference between Liberal Quaker and Orthodox Quaker? I know what quakers are as we went on a school trip to different churches and quakers were one of them. It was in a small room with benches and then everyone just sat in silence to think about things it seemed. Would this be liberal? Or would it be orthodox? And what does the other one do?
Hope that makes sense
Thanks
