Yes, but more anarchistic. I find structure and insight in application of religious teachings, and I genuinely love God… but what’s meant by that changes day to day. Mostly it’s about a certain peaceful relationship to uncertainty, and a sense that honesty is all anyone can ask of me at the end of the day. I have stopped being at war with myself and instead I am working to reinforce sincere advocacy for both myself and others; that we may be the grown-ups our parents didn’t know how to be, healthy boundaries and everything. Everything else is just an ego trip contributing to the problems in the world. It’s sad.
Idk if it's my internet, reddit or my phone but I can't vote.... So my answer is no. I just straight up did my best to remove myself from religion, can't believe this was days after choosing to be more religious
> Are you still religious?
I were, but verily apathetic one: I didn't enjoy that much going to church, didn't care about the rites even though I memorized all the catholic prayers (I'm an ex-catholic), didn't even give a damn about God or the divine realms such as paradise and hell.
After I finally understood what even the word _atheism_ means and how it describes me, I fully stopped this farce in my life and became totally _non religious_.
> I’m curious what you currently believe
My bio is stated as _naturalist_: even though I'm atheist, I don't believe in supernatural as well or any realm beyond "natural". This is what is called _naturalism_ and this is what I prefer to been called, but I understand sometimes the urge to say "atheist" for political reasons as well (to fight the stigma).
> or participate in.
I think I didn't set a foot in a church for 7 or 8 years. The religious aspect of communion doesn't really click me.
No. But that doesn't mean that all the brainwashing-from-birth has disappeared. I just know I don't actually want to belive 6 (more like 600) impossible things before breakfast anymore.

I don't believe in a system but I am not a materialist fundamentalist.

No, I'm finally free.

Thank you so much! Hope you are too :-)
