I was born and raised in an Eastern Orthodox Christian family. Became a theistic Satanist in the 1980s - more specifically a Luciferian. It even got me a conscription exemption. Still one to this day.

    So my parents were Catholic and Atheist respectively. I have great respect for religious beliefs but am an atheist myself.

    My town is very multi-cultural and due to the work I do, every year I am privileged to be invited to Hindu, Muslim, Christian and Jewish cultural events.

    I can happily say that the main thing that always strikes me is the friendliness of ordinary people from all faiths and walks of life.
