I think this is an interesting thread for me.

I´m from a melting pot of religious believes; my Dad was an atheist, my mother non religious, one brother a scientist, another into paganism, one grand-father a politician and into spiritism, another a scientist interested in Oriental religions.

I learned psychology and I have always liked the idea of a profond wisdom inside of every human soul rather than God, although I won´t rule it out altogether. I strongly believe in the powers of nature, so my higher power is a mixture of nature´s energy, collective wisdom energy, my twelve step group and my ancestors.

The religion I like the most is from my Nordic side. It´s a belief that our departed loved ones are with us, help us and guide us when needed. They are not worshipped, they are just ordinary people who we can ask to help at any time. To me, this is what I´m most comfortable with.
