Hell no. I was raised with that shit.
That said, I definitely am a believer in God, and feel I have a lifelong relationship with him. I feel life is about discovering these mysteries, and my relationship and faith in God is, I believe, one of the greatest positives in my life.
I just do not in any way trust religion to... facilitate that relationship. Religion is "God is telling you...", whereas relationship is, "God is telling me." Subtle, but dramatically important difference.
