Christian.
It was all my choice. I was an atheist, till some friends invited me to church, and after fighting it for a long time I went to just say I went. Eventually, the logic I had believed wasn't so logical anymore.
I was brought up in the church. Then I gave up on religion. Later I converted back to Christianity, but what I was raised with had NO influence on my desicion later.
I have hope. I have a Father who will always care about me, even when it feels as if no one else does. I was always searching for something more as an atheist. I just didn't know what. Now, as a Christian, I know what I was searching for, and I firmly believe that I have a guide. My life has gotten easier, not in it's situations, but in how I've learned to handle them.
The supposedly faithful can be hypocrites, ignorant, and many people who claim to live the Christian life, don't.

I am Christian. Brought up in it (sort of) then went through the usual period of seeing only the bad in it, asking lots of questions. The way I live out my faith now is not like everything I was brought up with by any means, but it is mine.
The good is the love, comfort, and purpose it provides. The bad is the people who say they are Christians but don't act much like Christ. I try not to be one of those people, but I'm sure I fail a lot.

Roman Catholic
Yes it was my choice
No I was not brought up with it, I went to an Evangelical Church
It brings me great joy and happiness each time I receive Communion each week.
It's bad that people just assume certain things about the RCC and never really do much research. I was one of those people, did the research and converted.

I'm Pagan. It's the religion that I feel most comfortable with. It brings me great joy. No, I was not brought up Pagan, I was brought up Southern Baptist. Everything about my religion is good to me.

I'm Christian.
My choice.
I was brought up with it, but I chose Wicca for awhile before coming back to Christ.
Jesus is good.
People that do not act as Jesus would yet claim to be Christian are the bad things, IMHO.

Cradle Catholic, left for many years, not a revert.
What's good may or may not be good to you.
What's bad to me...IDK
I do believe that God is a lot more understanding of our shortcomings than most people are.

Brought up with it, but selected it also.
Good: cookies after mass on Sunday
Bad: cookies after mass on Sunday(I'm diabetic)
I don't like their moralizing sometimes but Catholics are not as "Hollier than thou" as some of the protestant sects.--------besides we get into heaven befor they do anyway !(if we drive Fords)
