Religion is vital for your life.
May I ask you?
What is your religion?
- Islam
- Christian
- Jewish
- Christian/Protestant
- Christian/Catholic
- Christian/LDS
- Christian/Other
- None/Agnostic
- Scientology
- Hindu
- Buddhist/Taoist
- Atheist
- Spiritual but not religious
- Not Religious
- Other
P.S. We are Muslim.
We should of course respect other peoples cultures, opinions, religions and values.

Why the combination of ´none/agnostic´. It doesn´t make sense in my opinion. And since when is ´atheism´ in a list of religions

That was exactly my first thought when I saw "atheism" in the religion´s list.

Isn´t being ´Not religious´ the same thing as ´none´? And as DK says, how is Atheism a religion? You didn´t include Satanism or Witchcraft in the list. I am sure we have had a thread/post like this recently - it´s a bit repetitive.

Plus there is not just one form of Islam. Check out this map:

Even that does not take into account the millions of Alevites in this country. They are not the same as Shiite or whatsoever. The map further disregards 3 million muslims in Germany, 1.7 million in the UK, the Muslim populations of Bulgaria and Greece. There is also no talk about 7.5 millions muslims in the US.

Oh I got it now, I just forgot the "fact" that 99.99999% of the Turks are Muslims for a moment.
