During my research on the INFJ, I recall multiple times where it was stated that we tend to waver towards religion and spirituality
As I've seen on the forums, there are certainly a number of us that seem religious
I am not religious in the least
I believe I am far too analytical to be able to cope with the thought of being governed by some unforeseen entity
(But also due to heavy cynicism, I believe most people only go to church to earn what I call "Soul Insurance")
Instead of immersing myself into faith, I look at the values taught by that faith and 'adopt' them as my own
I have done this with Christianity, Paganism, Buddhism, and so on
What I have comprised I call my "Ideology"; rather, a collection of values and guidelines
In my eyes, if I were a teacher of great wisdom and spirituality, I'd rather have my lessons epitomized and myself forgotten
I've read before though that what I do is a big religious no-no, because it apparently makes me a Satan worshipper (So I guess you can see where I got that from)
Aaanyway, what I want to know is this: What is religion to you?
Ready? Religious debate is GO!!!
