My religion is agnostic-roman catholic. It's a kind weird religion but I explain it: I'm agnostic but I feel attached in some way to many traditions of my country, I like to go to Spanish "procesiones" on Easter and I find adorable these figures of the Virgin holding child Jesus. Well that is, in the end it is really not a true religion, I would like to fully believe.

Sorry, the message above was intended to be placed into the thread: your religion. This is my first message anyway here. I need practice :-)

So you're a cultural Catholic, Sir Galahad?

In some way yes, but there are many aspects of the catholic moral tradition I'm not agree with, such as the ban of abortion and anticonceptive methods. Anyway I find what Jesus said very interesting and it can be perfectly applied to everyday life, whether you believe he is the son of God or not.

Yes, me too.
I'm atheist, but I go to the religious festivity because of my culture.
For us, this is synonym of the Basque Pelote, traditional activities , "fanfare", dance the fandango, drink one Patxaran, Beers or Suzes, and eat Bayonne's Ham, Méchouis, Piperades and ewe's cheeses(ardi gasna) and at final the Gâteau Basque (Etxeko biskotxa or Pastiza).

I would say the same. I'm not catholic in the sense of belief, since I'm agnostic and don't practice any religion. But in some way I feel to be part of the catholic cultural herency.
