I have 2 friends that claim they're more than one religion. One claims that she is Catholic and atheist (being that her dad is Catholic and the mom is atheist). My other friend claims she is Catholic and Buddhist (being that her dad is Catholic and the mom buddhist)...When they asked them about it...I was like 'what? you cant be two different religions...Its either or but not both..' Can you be two different religions??

Mmm, in the matter of Religion vs Atheism, Atheism will cancel religion out. Now I've heard of two religions coming together to form something new. I'm sure at some point in time here, I've mentioned this before.
There's a religious sect in Judaism that actually believe that Christ is their Savior and they refer to themselves as Messianic Jews: Jews that believe in the Messiah. It doesn't exactly make them Christian, and Orthodox Jews choose not to recognize the Messianic sect as part of Judaism. The point is, I don't think two religions can exist within an individual, but rather they would blend to form something else. |
