I don't have a religion. For as long as I've known, my family haven't either. In the past, I did believe in God, but that was down to my primary school, which emphasised Christianity and praying to God every day. I went along with it because I thought it was right. When I got older, I stopped believing in God, just like I stopped believing in Santa and the tooth fairy. It's quite ironic that I don't believe in God because the idea of it fascinates me. The idea of Heaven and angels to me is awesome and (forgive me) magical, but I can't expand that view enough to actually believe in them. Science also fascinates me, especially space and the stars and planets. Science is more believable to me because well, it makes sense and applies to absolutely everything in the world. It's a poor reason, I know. I guess I need to think it through more. However, this view could also be seen from religious people about God and Heaven. I don't think my view will ever change, I'd like to believe I could start putting faith in a religion, some day. I'm happy enough how I am at the moment.
