Probably zero. That isn't to say that all (or most) of them have actually been religious.

"A religion is an organized collection of beliefs, cultural systems, and world views that relate humanity to an order of existence. Many religions have narratives, symbols, and sacred histories that aim to explain the meaning of life, the origin of life, or the Universe."

If none of them are atheists, then they all hold a positive belief, of some sort, about at least one god, of some sort. That qualifies as being religious.

this is pure semantics, but

it's not very accurate to qualify 'being religious' as one simply identifying with a particular deistic belief-set label

since the conjunction 'being' denotes an active status in this context, it's probably more accurate to qualify it via actions; i.e. someone who doesn't go to church, doesn't regularly engage in religious function, et cetera, isn't truly 'religious'. they're only wearing a label.

and, obviously, this is what i meant in that other post


so i suppose what you really meant to say before was

I would bet that there are a lot of people that are apatheist. They don't really care about religion enough to declare one way or another. They are functionally atheist, but have not said as much.

As far as I know, everyone who wasn't born braindead and hasn't sustained damage to their skullcabbage still has the necessary parts to engage in "spiritual" behavior, they just don't because it's something that you physically grow out of and only unlucky stunted fuckers and total nutjobs get stuck in that state. Outside of the few christians who've rang my doorbell with a really crazy glimmer in their eyes and a special needs kid or two, I don't think I've ever met anyone who was, uh, tuned in on that particular wavelength. Also, the christian/atheist/whatever dichotomy is entirely linguistic pedantry and anyone who argues with someone about it at lenght should realize that unless you're successfully using language for its intended function of conveying information to others, you're just generating meaningless noise/word salad.

Here are my top three favorite questions to Evolutionists:

1. Explain evolution in light of a 6000 year universe - (Genesis 1).
2. Since God pronounced His Creation "very good" in Genesis 1:31 - why the need for Evolution?
3. Since Jesus didn't believe in Evolution - (Mark 10:6; 13:9) - why should we?

I've had these questions multiple times in class. The problem being you can't use the "The evidence shows the planet is over 4 billion years old, so your argument is invalid" argument. It simply does not work.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

i am a jesus lover and i believe in charity, humility, forgiveness, tolerance, and fraternal love of all people, even those I dislike

i don't always live up to those ideals but I hold them close and try to implement them in my daily life, even when it is uncomfortable to do so
