(Religiouscels only) Were you born into your faith or are you a convert

Born into a faith. Not of that faith any longer - never was into it emotionally, spiritually, tbh.

Orthodox Christianity here. I would think about the big questions, but concluded that Christianity was not really necessary to have as a way of life. It did serve as a strong foundation for many philosophical interests, specifically metaphysics and ethics (and even occultism), and through that, I concluded that God must necessarily exist and settled on deism. It also served as a foundation for morality - not so much the specific rights and wrongs according to religious doctrine, but the way in which I'd think about right and wrong. That led me to study and think about ethics a great deal.
Ironically, religion has helped me in becoming a better (and freer) thinker.

I was born into faith.
The disappointments of life led me to atheism in its strictest sense: "without god".
Sometimes I would like to believe.

i was raised catholic and became christian at age 12. i take my religion very seriously, and at age 13 i would have killed myself, if it wasnt for my belief in hell. i was supposed to be dead very long ago, but here i am at age 25.
I am born Muslim. Working on becoming more religious, it is one of the best copes.
Convert. Was an athiest for several years, but overtime, God called, and the final straw was the event I had to deal with a narcissist and yeah... I woke up, sought after Him, received the true gospel that Christ Jesus, the son of God, the word that became flesh and dwelt among us, died on the cross, which his blood was shed for the remission of sins, was buried and then rose up on the third day, that whoever believes on him shall have everlasting life.
Saved by grace through faith, not of ourselves; gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast.
That's how it happened.
