1)Do you have a Religion?
No

2)If yes, do you regularly attend church/equivalent?
No

3)Do you think that somebody has to regularly attend church/equivalent to be 'religious'?
No. You can easily still be faithful to your religion without regular attendance of church or it's equivalent.

4)Do you think that Religion has a place in teaching children in terms of morality, etc?
I can't speak on that, because it depends on who is raising the child.

5)Should children be educated on a specific religion from a young age? (E.g. prominent religion in that area, religion of family, etc)
No, they should be able to decide what they want, but at the same time, the religion of the family should not be ignored when they're younger.

6)Do you ever watch Religious television?
No

7)If yes, how often?
see above

8)Have you ever taken an interest in Theism/Spirituality? (Buddhism, meditation, etc)
Well, I would like to learn about different religions to gain a better understanding of them.

9)Which do you see more often where you live, Religious, or Theistic/Spiritual points of view?
I haven't lived here long enough to decide on that.

1. No
2. n/a
3. No
4. No (if you have to threaten a child with eternal punishment or tempt him with infinite reward to get him to do the right thing, I don't see that as a good thing).
5. No
6. No
7. n/a
8. No
9. Nobody really talks about religion or spirituality in my life. I see very little of either viewpoint (which I like).

Religious



In short: I'm not religious, I accept religion if people choose to believe in a God (or what not), but I am against any form of indoctrination. Children don't need religion to teach them morality. In fact, religion tells people other ways of thinking are inferior, which is the opposite of a good morality.

I hope this helped!

5 How do you mean? They should know about a variety of different religions, certainly, but as far as actually teaching them to believe a certain religion, NO! I take the Richard Dawkins point of view that this is effectively institutionalised child abuse, and that children should always be completely free to come to their own conclusions free of bias. /rant.
6 no
7 -
8 no
9 spiritual. Religion doesn't have much of a role in people's lives in the UK, and polls generally show that people are more likely to believe in a 'spirit or life force' than any particular god (though note that even this view is a minority position).

1) Yes.
2) No.
3) Yes.
4) Yes.
5) Yes.
6) No.
7) N/A.
8) Yes (I studied Theology at University).

9) Neither really, as I don't get out much, but I'd probably say Religious, mainly due to the number of Churches I recognise in my area... however does being able to identify a place of worship count as seeing a Religious point of view?
I'm siding towards Religious because of my recollection of my life here 10+ years ago, but that doesn't reflect my current, sheltered existence in which I don't have any real awareness of either point of view.
