No, I don't. I wasn't even in Cuba where is kind of forbidden. In the University the comunists asked us every year, or more frequently sometimes, if we believed in God. The comunist party kept us under surveillance as possible dangerous individuals

I don't feel ashamed. But sometimes I feel embarassed by the fluff-bunny Play-gans out there who treat the Craft like a trend rather than a religion. There are the ones who have watched too many episodes of "Charmed" and now they want to be Witches because they will get everything they want and psychic powers. Those Pagans are the ones that ruin it for the serious ones.

Nah, Im not ashamed of my religion. I will proudly say Im a Roman Catholic. Hey it is enough to make those who try to force religion down people's throats walk away from me haha. Really there is no need for anyone to feel ashamed of their religion because its your own choice.
Tho those people who are extremeists and insane fundamentalists I just want to say why do that? Why make others think of your religion as hypocritical or take things word for word?

No.
But I go to a school where a different religion is practiced and they sometimes compare my religion and their religion, so it gets a little weird. And when my religion is compared the things that are different are often "wrong".
But I don't get ashamed. Freedom of religion!

I do not feel ashamed because I have no religion and neither am I religious. I firmly believe the godhead (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) is a real live entity. That is who and what I worship and I am not ashamed of it!!

I am often ashamed of the religion I grew up with. Roman Catholic Christian.
The fact that most of the believers are of non-European origin, yet none of the church leaders (popes) have been is one reason
not allowing women to be priests/bishops/cardinals/popes is another
and then of course there are the pedafile fiascos
there are too many reasons to mention

Yes. . . Many of Christian claim to believe in God, but still practise Homosexual, and claimed that they are accepted by God.
So far, in many religion, only liberal Christian attacking their own bible and fellow brothers who hold on to the teaching of the Bible.
Do you ever see the liberal Muslim do that to their fellow fundamental Muslim?
Or the liberal Hindu do that to Fundamental Hindu? Or Buddhist?
This is what I am ashame of.
More so, as an Anglian, I am more shameful of myself and Church, for there even Gay Bishop in US! Wow. . .how to face people when they ask, 'why Anlican like that?'.

Sometimes I feel ashamed of people in my religion because they are representing it incorrectly but, of my religion itself, no.

Never.Though sometimes some people who claim to practice it. But then I sometimes am ashamed of other people who call themselves human.

But I am ashamed when people do bad things and say its justified in my religion when it clearly is not.
