I was raised as a Zen Buddhist. My parents are non particularly religious and I lived near a Zen Temple, so I always went there when I was a child to do zazen meditation, martial arts and stuff like that, and listened to the Temple's "abbot". Years ago, looking for my ancestors, I found my family has jewish ancestry. It's strange that, even before, I always had an interest for jewish history and culture. I'm currently taking in consideration conversion to judaism. Very interesting

Thank you! I know it's not the stereotypical image of italian catholic, but that's the truth! where I'm living, real catholics, I mean, church practitioners, are kind of a rarity. I live in a historically anti-cleircal part of Italy, and this counts. I remember that schoolmates that said they went to Mass on Sunday were looked as "weirds" and called "i cattolici", the catholics. Nonetheless, these "catholics" form a combative minority. Ciao!

Can't really put a label on myself. My beliefs are Hindu to a certian extent but it isn't limited to one religion necessarily.

A Jew with a casual interest in physical anthropology? I've seen weirder...

As it was just guessed (somehow) by a member, I might as well say it. I'm Jewish.
