Religion/Spirituality Poll
« on: November 29, 2015, 11:15:09 PM »
Well, I've seen a lot of religion related threads floating around here. That got me thinking. What is the belief/religion distribution among a sample of the furry fandom? Hopefully we learn a bit from this.

I myself am considering joining The Satanic Temple.

2edgy4me If you'd like to know more about the spiritual distribution of this forum, look at this poll.

EDIT: Didn't realize the old thread was closed, but it's still fine for reference, if the 0P's purpose in the thread is learning about the distribution of beliefs.

Simply put, I'm agnostic.
Though I must add, for the silliness of it; BREE!

Atheist.

Honestly as time has gone on I am slowly leaning towards being an Anti-theist. I will not worship any gods. however real they are.

I won't go into details due to the risk of starting a flamewar.

Agnostic atheist, as in I currently don't believe in a god but I accept that we can never truly know if one does exist.

Aren't a vast majority of furries on some level irreligious?

California Spiritualist. I just sorta go with whatever. If there truly are gods, most likely they're beings whom have evolved past the need for consciousness or something like that. Also Praised be Cthulhu and Satan

Atheist.


To be honest, it's just the lack of proof that's real and actually studied, that and I get a lot of crap from religious folks for a whole lot of nonsense, you know?
But I don't honestly care if you're for a god or against. You're cool either way.

Atheistic


I like to perceive what is there and don't feel the need to believe in anything to in someway enhance my experience of life or give me answers. I look to science for answers about how things work and why. I refuse to believe in anything that can fall under pseudoscience or anything that doesn't have any credible facts to back it up.


Basically I'm boring.

I feel 'atheist' is the closest thing to my position although it's not really a religion per se, although religions can encompass atheism.

Born, raised, and after a lot of struggle related to me being furry and pansexual I remain, Christian. I respect everyone's beliefs, though I don't tolerate aggressive anti-religious sentiment (meaning violent or vehement insults and negativity born of a dislike or disagreement with religious sentiment). In other words, respect my beliefs because I respect yours.  ^_^

I'm very new to the fandom and also life itself, if you think of it like that  :D I respect all religions, and beliefs (Christianity, atheism, Islam, satanism, etc.) but personally I am theistic (believe in a god), am very spiritual but I do not necessarily conform to abrahamic religion.

If I'm not mistaken, the furry fandom seems to be very accepting of all religions, from what I've experienced. There is a growing number of irreligious people in the world, and so is reflected in the fandoms of the world. Tis all well  :) acceptance is key anywhere  :P
