Shotglass is a jewel in the rough
My mother tried many different religions, with me tagging along of course, trying to find something that was right for her, and she couldn't find anything that suited how she felt about God. She was baptized baptist, she tried a Pentecostal church for a while, among others, and she wound up deciding that she was just spiritual, not religious.

Living with my dad and stepmother was interesting. Those were three years where I was a part of the Mormon church. I was baptized Mormon and went to church every week. I can say right now that of all of the religions that I have explored, Mormonism is the scariest. They aren't scientology, but they have some practices that I haven't seen in any other religion or church.

What I'm trying to say from all of this is that I believe in God in one form or another. I have too many beliefs of my own about things that would get in the way of me really getting into any religion.

But then, that's just me..

I should add that by believing in God, I believe that there must have been some form of higher power back when the universe and everything was created, because so far there hasn't been any real evidence to back up anything else. Until science can show me why and how EVERYTHING works, a small part of me has to think that there was something else that kickstarted things. And maybe governs us in some small way today. Who knows.

It's moreso that I just don't know all the answers yet I guess.
