What are your guys' religions? I don't really consider mine a religion (It's a relationship) but I am a Christian. Please no hate on this thread and don't get into fights!

Proud Catholic Christian. I can't speak for any others here on CB, but I'd like to assure all you of other religions, especially atheist/agnostic that I will never be prejudiced. For evidence, see my best friends: one is Buddhist/agnostic/atheist, one is Jewish (non-orthodox), I'm Catholic, and my best best friend is Hindu. Nope, I can't even try to be prejudiced with my best friends so diverse! Love to you all.

First of all, I just wanted to say that I read Butterfly's thread about how we should try to think about preserving old or "dead" threads before we post on them. So, CBers who agree with that, if you're reading this, I'm sorry and I really am not trying to destroy old memories and/or threads.
I really just need somewhere to kind of vent about my religion problems and if this is not the place, I'll ask admins to delete this and I will create a new thread or vent to someone in real life, or write this down in my journal. I hope you guys aren't offended by this, and if you are, let me know, I'm really sorry.
So, I'm half Jewish and I'm half Presbyterian, a form of Christianity like Savvy said earlier in this thread. My dad's family is Reform Jewish and Humanist which is not orthodox.
If you don't know what in the world I'm talking about, basically, there are orthodox jews, which are more extreme. Then there are conservative jews, then reform, which some of my family are, and then humanist, which some of my family are, and then Secular, which is basically atheist. (If I got any of this wrong, let me know)
My Dad doesn't go to Temple, and he doesn't really believe in any religion, so he's Secular. We still celebrate the holidays with family, which is fun. My Mom goes to Church and brings me and my brother with her.
But here's the thing: I wasn't baptized in either religion, and I won't be confirmed or get a bat mitzvah when I turn 13. And my Mom's not Jewish, so in the orthodox religion, I'm not a Jewish person. And at my church, when I turn 13, I will have to explain to the church that my secular Jewish father won't allow me to be confirmed. But then there's the issue of do I even want to be confirmed. Which leads to another issue: Do I even believe in god? So to answer your question Joss, I guess I’m agnostic.
