[quote=Anonymous]My take on this question is that it is not that surprising that so many feel that the religion of their birth is the one for them. Religion is a two-way street -- each adherent is shaped by the religion and also shapes it to fit her/his character and personality. If the religion of your birth is at all reasonable for you, you will adjust yourself and your religion to make the fit even better. If the fit is really bad, you will look elsewhere. Terminology also plays a role. My parents were secular Jews who more or less believed in God. I'm a secular Jew who does not believe in God. Have I kept the religion of my birth because I consider myself a secular Jew, or have I abandoned it because I also consider myself an atheist?[/quote]
