Hi everyone. I’m Simone from Surrey in UK. Just been diagnosed and very relieved .
is there anyone here who is specifically interested in religion?
I have Been fascinated with religion since the age of 11 when I attended Catholic school and preferred the tranquility of sitting in the chapel at school to get away from everyone and questioning the nuns on a daily basis . I have researched and explored almost every world religion.
anyone else have interest in religion?
I have a professional interest, as I teach RE at secondary level. I remember when I was younger I wanted to know about all of the religions there was to know. Having a sociology degree helped too. I find how people act fascinating. From the Abrahamic faiths I love Judaism for its rules based approach to life, and for Islam for its focus on a higher being, but my heart and mind will always be with Buddhism. So accepting and different to all the others.
Mostly through my interest in the Late Roman and Byzantine Empires, I have cross over interests in Christological disputes and heresies.

If anyone would ever stoop to properly explain such concepts as the Holy Trinity, i suppose it might be interesting .I was brought up in the system and I reckon it spat me out quite young, because I found it almost impossible to have their deliberately arcane faith. Right from Sunday school age, I've had the impression that I'm deliberately excluded because I tend to go looking for understanding rather than just 'accept' what others say is right
My current special interest is philosophy and Atheism.
Newton and Darwin, my two favourite Englishmen!
Hi there :) I also love religion, theology, communication and culture and have a particular interest in Islam :)
Surrey eh? Very posh (I’m a poor neighbour next door in Hampshire). Religion interests me but I’m not religious. I find it interesting from an analytical perspective and love understanding why people hole the beliefs they do - it fascinates me :) Also as a history geek, I like to look at the influence of religion on certain historic themes.
I studied theology at uni (not completed degree, last year was pure Christianity and I wasn't learning anything I didn't already know - importance of that piece of paper you get at the end wasn't something I understood at the time).
My interest is more from an anthropological perspective, how cultures, conditioned behaviour, and perceptions evolve from one generation to the next.
