I chose Pagan, as it's the closest single choice.

Actually, I am a Buddhistic Christo-Pagan. The "Christo" was orginally Roman Catholic, but lately United Church of Christ (UCC). The Pagan is primarily Wicca, with a bit of Asatru (Norse), although my matron goddess is Pele (Polynesian) and my patron god is Perkunas (Lithuanian). The Buddhism is Soto Zen.

My wife just completed her Master's of Divinity (M-DIV) course of study and should be ordained in the UCC later this year.

I put Catholic, though I'm really Episcopalian.  The Episcopalians I know usually identify as Catholics (in the sense that Catholic means Universal).  Also, most Protestants I know (like the rest of my family) abhor some Catholic devotions that I like very much, like the rosary. 
Despite being transgender (or whatever I am--I identified as a crossdresser for a while) I don't feel odd about calling myself a Christian.  I haven't come out at church or anything, as I'm still feeling out my gender identity (and will be starting to see a therapist somewhat soon, I hope)  Despite the confusion about who I am, and though I may not understand everything, I like to remember what Job said, "Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him."  I believe that everything will work itself out in time. 
There's much more I could say about this topic, but I'll keep this one short.

This is a topic that is very dear to my heart.  My gender issues and my spirituality are very strongly connected.

I am a heathen (one of that species of pagan who venerate the Northern pantheon--Odin, Thor, Frey, Freyja, among many others), and primarily dedicated to Loki.  I feel that my androgynous nature is something that brings me closer to my shapeshifting, gender-changing God (this is not to say that people of all gender identities can't have a connection to Loki, just that this is mine).

I'm glad this poll was posted.  It is amazing to see the wide differences in spiritual belief.  And look at us.  We all seem to get along.  What is it about us where we can set aside our beliefs to do this?  I find it absolutely amazing.

I can't tell you how proud I am to be a part of this forum and to "know" all of you.

Well, I know I'm only new and all but I have to say that people here have been a lot more friendly and welcoming to me than mainstream heathen fora have... heheh...

Open minded and anti-dogma for me. Had to click Agnostic I guess.

With those options I do not know. Maybe non-evangelic and modern theology Christian. It was not an option in this poll however.

I thought that I had voted on this but maybe not.

I am a witch, non practicing.  But I believe in the Goddess and the God.

Lol, you forgot to add 'Jedi'. ;)

I'm not really any of the above. I don't follow any preset religion. I do have some metaphysical beliefs and I consider the Universe to be sentient, but not in a 'bow down and worship me' kind of way.

Above all... remember: you are beautiful, you are valuable, and you have a shining spark of magnificence within you. Don't let anyone take that from you. Embrace who you are. <3

Not mine first religion but there are not the logical religion of the post-industrial society. The religion where humankind tries to find the higher level entity by natural metods. When the ''stories'' are left behind and humakind tries to reach higher level entity. I mean extraterrestials.

I am a child of the Sacred Feminine, I am a spiritual being having a human experience.
We are all minute projections of the infinite intelligence or we are all individual sentient beings perceiving this reality individually but we are all of one conscience within the oneness of all realities.

What is life? Why are we here? What is our purpose here? We all have the answers to these questions within us. It's up to us to seek within us. I believe the answer is already there, then all that remains is to make the correct choice . Follow the little voice or as some call it, your gut instincts.
