Taboo poll...

What would everyone consider themselves in terms of faith/religion?
I was going to add a clicky poll but I guess they are still broken, so obviously don't worry about responding if you don't feel comfortable.

Methodist
Ooops, once again I almost forgot to answer my own question again.
I'm Christian. DH and I are members of a Christian Reformed Church, but it isn't nearly as traditional as most of them are.

Ha ha this is us too
. We're quite involved with leadership and we also have a very close, strong relationship with our church family. It's definitely a main aspect in our lives.
I was raised Christian, but consider myself agnostic, now.
However, I direct several music ensembles at a church, and am therefor pretty active. The way I see it, I may not believe what the people at my church believe, but I believe in them, and their ability to be a force for good in the world, and I support that.

This exactly.
I second this.
This is us, too! Non denominational Christian and I volunteer in the nursery twice a month.

My mom was raised Catholic and I received communion and reconciliation as a child, but I only went to church when visiting my grandparents. My mom never went to church. When we moved away from my grandparents when I was around 11, I never went to church again until I was an adult and went on my own.
I am hard to describe. Maybe Agnostic? I have my own certain beliefs and thought that I didn't fit in anywhere. Then I found Unity Church and they teach just about everything I believe- they identify as Christian, but it is not Christian like most people would think of.
Since we moved to another state, there is no Unity church where we live. The closest one is 1.5hrs away. I would like to attend church and have DS involved in church, but I am torn about attending one that I don't believe most of the same things as them.
I guess I "third" this. However, I wasn't raised with any particular religion.

My family is a Foreign Service family. Families like mine are posted in every corner of the globe. We live our lives away from family, friends and the conviences and comforts of home. We often live and work in dangerous places among those that misunderstand our intentions and purposes. Sometimes members of our ranks sacrifice our lives to further diplomacy. Please remember that we serve too. And I'm always open to questions.
I knew I loved you!
I was raised Baptist. My Papaw is a Baptist minister. I call myself "Christian", but I'm definitely rooted Baptist.
For clarification: I believe Baptist. I am muscially more liberal than that... I like a good mix of the old hymns and the newer contemporary stuff. My Mom, Sister, and I were in the church band together for a few years until we moved churches. (long story... heartbreaking church split....
)

Christian, raised and still attend Methodist.
I study the teachings of the Bible and try to live my life by that example. I know I fall short, but I try.
For me, I have a hard time reconcilling "spiritual" with "religion" because I feel like it is a cop out.
Should have saved that for FFFC I guess...
I am Christian, Baptist to be more specific. Both DH and I were raised Baptist, although I was raised in a Full Gospel Baptist Church. We are currently members in the church DH grew up in.
We are working on becoming more active in church because it is how we both grew up and hope to raise DD the same way.
Couldn't have said it better. This.
