What's your religion?
I am just curious what are some of the Animesuki's member's religion are. I think there was a topic like this but I am not too sure and I can't find one. I am a Buddhist and I am not that serious, I do go to temple sometime but ever since our family moved we can't go there anymore.

Just a little FYI so that we're all clear: you understand that atheism is not the same thing as saying you believe in scientific laws or principles. Atheism is simply the disbelief of deities such as God or Zeus. How you choose to view the universe from that point is up to you. Quite simply, the term could be defined as a philosophy.
I mean like me - I have a strong faith toward science. I think the universe was created through big bangs and eons of dust gathering and comet impact. But at the same time, I believe that there are many things about the universe that we do not understand nor will I ever be able to understand in the 77 years I have left on this Earth. The world, in my point of view, was created according to complex yet natural laws. But I don't deny the possibility that there are deities out there who may or may not have contributed to the forming of the cosmos. Star Trek has taught me this and to keep an open mind. |

I think your post (or at least the second half of it) would be better suited in a thread such as Creationism / Intelligent design which seems to be discussing the topics you raise. Quote:

Eventhough I was born on a very religious family, I ended up becoming an Atheist as well.
Thankfully, my family is also very open minded, and has respected my decision since the very beginning.

Well, I am here to break the chain of expected/unexpected Atheists... Quite a few of my friends have made a claim towards Atheism as well as Wiccanism(?). At any rate, I will be truthful and note that I am a Latin Rite Roman Catholic.

Latin rites and the Tridentine Mass are basically the same thing. Speech and sermon at a Tridentine Mass is spoken entirely in Latin... ironic, since Latin was the language of the very people who crucified Jesus... the Romans.
I am an atheist... I just happen to know a lot about Roman Catholic tradition. |

Well, unfortunately the Tridentine Mass is not delivered in my area. I am on the Base-side of the Canadian Diocese while the local Diocese of Pembroke is moving towards the traditional Mass setting. The Bishop does not seem to be pressuring the Clergy to deliver Latin during the Mass.
