| I grew up Catholic, DH is protestant. We're both agnostic. Now that we have children, I wonder whether our children not growing up with any type of religion or religious rituals will have a negative impact on them. Thoughts. |

Do you still find joy in any of the rituals, even though your faith is absent? If so, you probably should raise them with something.
Plenty of religions care more about what you do than what you believe, so for at least some of us, your agnosticism doesn't pose a problem for practice. |

| Eh, you can have fun family "rituals" without religion that capture all the good bits of religion (family bonding, presents, family traditions, etc.). |

| No religion or religious rituals here and I'm fine. |

| I go to Unitarian church for the community and common bond, not religion or ritual ... |

Lots of church folks do the same. Only they claim they go for God and religion. |
