I'm an atheist, as well. But I'm not such a "tough-guy" as Jeff is I believe in things, but not in Religion or spiritual things, as of this moment.

Well I clicked other. I am two really if you want to know. B/c I don't believe in all the old wicca ways. I am wicca and so was my coven but we believed in the NEW wiccan ways. There are not many like us though...hard to find them but I have found a few online and around here which were my coven but we kinda broke the coven up after a few years passed. We believed in everything that Christians did but also believed in the powers of the earth and well it is confusing if i get into it. So I guess you can call me Chris/Wicc

A lot of religions are classified as "cults" these days.
Not to be confused with the occult.

I guess if I went by family, it would be either Buddhist or Christian. But I don't actively practice any religion, and I'm actually trying to find out as much as I can about the major religions - Hinduism, Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, etc.

I don't really consider being a Christian "religion" It's just knowing the truth. So, I am a Christian AKA a believer in the truth.

technically I'm a Roman Catholic. I think I'll stick with that. Even though I practice Wicca. Let me make it clear that I practice Wicca and not Shaminism, since people get the two confused.

Truth has different meanings for different people. Some people think that the "truth" is that there's no "god" per se,

I'm Christian...no denomination. Just. Christian. I believe in the bible; the Old Testament, and the New Testament, taken back to the original text, the way it was written.

But she is saying that Christians know that they see the truth, and other people have false truths.

I have paid very close attention to most Catholics opinion of me, and actions towards me, and some of them who don't know me very well, but have seen by my pentegram and cross worn together, that I believe in God and Wicca, treat me like the plague. Like if they get too close to me they'll go straight to hell.
