What do you believe in /x/?
I believe in the Zodiac and Tarot cards. So... I'm pagan? Wiccan? If so, neat. (Also learning about Vodun)
I mean, I'm ok with either, but I feel like Pagan sounds better to me. While Wicca makes me feel like I'm just in a Harry Potter cult.
I know a lot of people say"You don't need a religion to define yourself/be happy" sure that's true, but I feel sorta "Naked" without it if that makes sense.
At one point I thought maybe I was a shamen cause I liked to learn about different beliefs and what they teach.
I believe in everything. I believe in nothing.

I'm nominally Catholic but I feel more and more that I'd be better suited as a Jew. I'm doubtful that Jesus was the son of God let alone God himself, I find transubstantiation a little weird and I am doubtful of the Trinity as well.
I think that Jesus was the Messiah and that he is the perfect model for mankind though and I will still follow him no matter what.
I really don't know what I should call myself seeing as I am doubtful of many Catholic articles of faith but I find the Catholic way of going about things quite good.
I believe in the total freedom of man to find meaning wherever it lies for that individual, be it religion, academics, physical activity, crafting, etc.
I'd like to believe in the spooky, but I hold an agnostic atheist viewpoint: If we can't know if there's a god, higher power or whatnot, then why assume there is? It's all Russel's teapot. That being said, I find ancestor worship fascinating, and I think it might be psychologically healthy to have a shrine to your ancestors where you can talk about whatever if you need to. I've always felt extremely in touch with my Celtic heritage, and have been considering checking out Celtic reconstructionist paganism from an academic point of view.
One thing that I'm against is the control of thought by other people. It's an immutable part of our nature that some are too lazy/ desperate/ whatever to seek meaning for themselves, but I don't like the idea of institutionalized control over hearts and minds that exists in many organized religions.
