I am a Catholic and that has had much bearing on my choosing to work in nursing. I am curious as to your faith or belief and choice of occupation or career.
Peace Be WIth You,
Debra

Yes, being Catholic has given me lots of wardrobe ideas for my pornography film shoots. Plaid skirts and pigtails, and we'll even put the man in a priest outfit. We think of it as film imitating real life. Peace be with you

None at all.
I'm an atheist and by "profession" (I'm loathe to call it that) I'm a water shepherd - I use the element to please the senses of humans, bolster local ecosystems and provide a viable life support system for things that live in water. I reckon anybody from any religion or non-religion could do what I do without having to deal with any internal conflicts about whether it's right or wrong.
So maybe it's more likely that religious people tend to follow paths in to professions, as you have, which might give them some way to express outwardly that part of their psyche that wants to help other people?

I was not raised in any particuar church but with the teachings of the Bible I know that without God I would not have gotten through my early years of life.His saving grace of the young protected me very much and I am a better mother for what I went througjh and I pray that no more children have to go through what I did. I know some do and that is not God;s fault it is the evil heart of man that causes the problem so the second part of the prayer is for God to help the children through this if it happens to them to make them better people. I am a Christian and follow the Bible.

NOpe. I was Catholic at one time till I got to studying the bible and seeing how I was lied to in that church about so many things that the bible says totally different. I do not condemn anyone that is in it today and I beleive there are many good Christians in it but one day there will be many that will exit as they will see the truth and follow it but others that will join too. Have a great day.

Though I was raised in a Buddist temple, I learned to separate career and religion goals(which sometimes are goals that are set up by somebody else). Then, of course, job is a big part in satisfying one's own desire to actualize the potentials, which are also learned by following other people's role models.

Yes. I am a non-denominational Christian. I believe in Jesus and in the Word of the Lord. I wanted to make a difference in my lifetime, so I tried many jobs. I now work with children who have behavioral and/or emotional problems. Many of them have been abused by adults. They have lost faith and hope in humans all together. I believe I give them hope and help them to become better human beings - more loving, understanding, forgiving, and compassion toward others. It has it's benefits for me too. I am more compassionate with others because of my experience with these children.

Being an atheist helped me in my profession as it needed rational thinking about and critical analysis of the real world

Not really, but I was raised in the Baptist church and I have worked for Baptist Hospital since the age of 19.

I am Muslim designer.
Choosing this career because of the need for our Muslim women to be fully covered in modern yet stylish clothing.
Peace Be With You.

Yes as an athiest I have found that I can be far more fair and impartial. I have always found that Christians are far to quick to judge and condemn people.
