I have never been a religious person. I was not raised in a specific religion, even though I was christened as an infant (it's just the thing to do in my family). However, my mother is a spiritualist and did used to take me to her services occassionally.

When I was about 16, I was very much into Judaism, and wanted to convert. It wasn't about a belief in the Biblical god, so much as I just loved how I viewed the Jewish culture and traditions.

I guess I was agnostic for a time, then after completing my degree in Theology (and before my PG work), I realized atheism was most logical.

Definitely not!

I've been a "born again christian" since July 1991 and can honestly say i've never looked back.

Not even for one minute have I considered not being a christian, it's a lifestyle decision.

I don't know that I have ever seriously considered converting, but in my younger days I explored three religions in some depth, the three being Christianity, Buddhism and Hinduism.

I think they all have a great deal of value, and anyone could learn a lot from any or all of them. They've certainly each played a part in shaping my outlook on life.
