made up your mind what religion/or not that you would be. Have you ever changed since that age?

Not at all. That's actually when I embarked on my own spiritual quest and began learning about as many different religions as I could muster, starting with comparing all the major religions first [Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, etc.], before I delved into the more esoteric ones later [Jainism, Sikhism, Taoism, Kabbalism, Ufology, Theosophy, etc.].
It took me decades before finally settling on the one that I now follow and adhere to.
Seek and you, too, shall find.
Peace be with you.

No one ever knows everything about religion. I did decide as a teenager that I didn't want to follow my parents religion. I haven't changed my mind since then. I'm a very happy pagan who knows in my heart that the decision I made was the right one.

No at all. You have to undergo the perils of being a teenager discovering yourself and the hormones stuff. But you can still study the bible and make application still as a teenager. I did it over 15 yrs ago and never regretted my decisions. I studied as a Jehovah's Witness and investigated and found it to be true as Phillipians 1:10 says. Do not fall into the trap thinking you are too young. Doing so shows you are maturing as a young person.

Oh, no. When i was a teenager, I was what you might call a "Child of Religion." I read every religious text I could find. I read philosophy, I went to churches and temples, and I spoke to anyone who would talk to me about their faith. I was convinced that there was something missing in my life and that it was something of the spiritual nature.
My mind was made up for me, however, much later in my life. I think everything I learned in my teenage years made me extremely tolerant of everyone else and humbled me in my faith, so maybe that was meant to be. :)

Atheist since about 12 or so.
I hope that my thinking about religion has gotten more sophisticated since then, but it's all been from roughly the same angle. I'd like to think I got religion right early so I could swing around wildly in terms of politics.

Well I'm 19, I made up my mind at 18 that I didn't believe in god, religion is bogus, and that I'm a born again atheist...and I don't see myself changing my views ever.

Does anyone know everything about religion...?
I think if you believe what a particular religion preaches, then thats the religion for you. If not, keep searching.

When I was a teenager, I started to realize how much I didn't like how my church was trying to tell me how to run my life. I began to question things, but not until age 24 did I shed all religious belief.

I have believed in Jesus since I was a toddler. Religion is man made. I believe in the Holy Bible.

No, I didn't. I was still searching for the truth. I embraced Islam at the age of twenty- nine. After more than twenty years of being Muslim I am still a devout follower of Prophet Muhammad (saws).
