I know we've had polls on Atlas' religious demographics before, but I thought it'd be interesting to see what religion(s) everyone hear was raised with, even if some have since left that faith.  I allowed for two votes in case people grew up with two religions equally.

Though my mom was raised Catholic, my sister and I were raised Lutheran (Missouri Synod until we moved to Iowa City and ELCA after that).

None, became catholic around the age of 9 and then became an atheist around the age of twelve and have been some form of agnostic or atheist since then. Though I've increasingly just stopped caring about such matters.

My fathers side are Conservative Catholics, My mom went to a local ECLA church where my best friends dad was the pastor, so I went there for around 3 years and my grandmother used to bring me to her Baptist Church when I was an infant so I voted, Catholic and Protestant

I was baptized by my uncle, an LCMS minister, as a baby, but was primarily raised Seventh-Day Adventist.  I was baptized in the SDA church when I was 13, but am now considering joining the Seventh Day Baptists.  I guess you could say I have dual LCMS/SDA citizenship.  And since my hometown is predominantly LCMS (with a significant minority of Catholics and ELS), I don't mind that.

Lutheran Christian. My parents stopped going to church at around age 7 or 8, I explored secular beliefs and agnosticism around 14 years old, didn't care before.

My dad's side is Methodist; my mom's side is Lutheran. My parents were married in the Lutheran church, so I just consider myself Lutheran. I went to a few different churches growing up, such as Assemblies of God and believe it or not a Messianic Judaism church, where my mom is currently going and is hands down the best praise and worship I have ever seen.

I don't go to church, but I definitely consider myself a Christian and close to the Lord. I pray daily (and sin too), though I would like to become more involved in it (church, the Bible, etc.).
