Raised Methodist.

Now an atheist.

If you answered agnostic ... have you read "The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins? If not, I strongly recommend you do so.

Same here.

Christian. Don't really care to get into the subtleties of denominations.

Lutheran. Still causing ruckus since 1517.

Raised Methodist but I've attended my wife's Southern Baptist Church since we started dating about 27 years ago. I've never joined because every time I think I might the SBC does something I think is stupid. That plus I'm just so Methodist I can't bring myself to do it.

Maybe I should be a Scientologist. The all seem to have a schitload of cash and hot wives. I am not above being a religion whore.

Episcopalian/Anglican. Anglo-Catholic.

Fo, those people are out there...waaaay out there.

Raised in a Protestant family (Assembly of God), went to elementary school at a Lutheran school, went to church with an ex girlfriend to a Christian "cult" called the Christadelphians, current girlfriend is agnostic but willing to go to church and raise children to be Christians. I'm non denomination after all of that and believe what I feel God tells me is true.

Second thought...after that schit this morning from Kirstie Alley?...I might want to reconsider. She is bat schit crazy.

You so understand that now we are on a their hit list for talking schit about them...right?

Catholic.

I also believe that things happen for reasons, that people and events are put in the paths of my life and that ultimately I will be judged on what I did when things/events happened.

When you view life through that prism, you realize it is your obligation to act to make a difference yourself and not wait for someone else to step in.

Lutheran. Raised on those "Davey and Goliath" TV shows.

Southern Methodist

The Northern Methodists and Southern Methodists split around the Civil War. But I thought they unified about 1925.

They did. They both are under the United Methodist. However, the Southern Methodists still have their own sect.

Nondenominational

I can honestly say I go to the best church in the country.

Our motto "a perfect place for imperfect people"

We have every type of person you can think of.

Nothing wrong that that IMO...it is after all...all about one thing......Faith

If non-denominational gives you what you need spiritually then that is where you need to be. It's not about one religion being better than the other. We are all ultimately all looking for the same thing and just need different support systems to get us there.

Besides it's not about what the church gives to you but all about what do you give to your church. People complain that church is boring, not entertaining or they don't get anything out of it. My question to them is always what did you put into it?

Southern Baptist born and raised. However, I do drink and dance, so I don't toe the SBC line. My pastor isn't the stereotypical fire and brimstone Baptist preacher and I think many non-baptists would really enjoy his sermons.
