It really just gets hate because they stroll by your house every two days and want to tell you about their beliefs. It's pretty annoying when you're doing other stuff.
That reminds me of those mormon ads I constantly get on youtube.

EDIT: Also, saying you're "proud to be" anything is instantly going to get you hated by anyone who doesn't agree.

I'm an atheist. That's an absence of religion by the way, for anybody who tries to argue that it is a religion. Just saying that, as I know people that will argue to no end that it's a religion and it annoys me.

I mean it fine for people to state their religion, but there is a place, time and manner to do it.

Some just place a flyer on the door or something. Quite reasonable.

Funny thing is they actually give you a flyer (more like a little book) after they're done talking or you tell them off.

I don't even know what to call myself any more, I'm leaning towards agnostic. I was raised to be a Christian since I could barely talk, but as I got older I started thinking logically about things more and more, and science makes more sense than creationism in many ways. Natural selection seems virtually indisputable. Still, though, I can't just write off the possibility of some higher being. And, maybe this is just because habits don't die easily, but whenever I find myself stressed or in a tight situation I pray, if nothing else to calm my nerves.

I believe the most powerful object(s) in the universe (+ any other existential/transcendental realms) is God(s).

Any other inference on God is speculation and subject to be disproved. Even my definition requires some subjective views on what is the most powerful. Notice I didn't even specify if it is a living being or not.

Buddhist. And about religion being great, sure, I guess it somehow gives us something to believe in, to maybe strive for after we die, but I hate how many religions are the cause of deaths throughout history, and I wonder how the world would be if there were not to be religion.

I believe in a God, but I try to avoid specific religions.

I think every "Organized" religion is bullshit and a scam, but I just don't talk about religion because it ends up in fighting.

I just live life, and try not to think about how the life was created and what not.

I wouldn't exactly say that, because I do know some people who really have changed for the better after finding a path. It gets bad when people take religions out of context, but in those cases where religion makes someone a better person, it's definitely a good thing.

I don't follow any particular religion, but I have friends of just about every faith, from both ends of the spectrum of hardcore atheist to devout, God-fearing follower. As long as you have an open mind it's generally easy to talk to people about their religion and not end up fighting.

God cares. If God dictates then there be no bad and only "good" without freedom.

Either you're wrong and atheism is a religion, or you're a *censored by an atheist moderator* for posting a reply on a thread asking about your religion. Your enlightened mind really didn't see that problem?

I'm Christian. But I also share most of the scientific theories (less the evolutionary one). I think they explain the same things in other ways and with scientific basis.

I'm one of the lesser Christian Asians.

Not trying to be stereotypical or racist, but I believe most Eastern Asia people are Buddhists or Atheist.
Strange, All of the Asians I know are Christian and make fun of our religions.....I've always thought that most Asians (at least where I lived) were Christian, making me feel very left out.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I thought of that too before posting that, but whatever.

I don't know. I just feel like people take religion waaaay too seriously.
