I was never raised in any religion, though there are many Christians about me and my parents have some very Christian people in their families. My experience with religion came from looking at what came in from elsewhere and from my peers (as well as reading a teeny bit of texts, but that's something on its own). I once would have considered myself a Christian (believing all that), but I lost it.
I think there may or may not be anything, but it doesn't matter. So many people think of it so many ways - different gods and systems and values, those who believe in the absence of any gods, etc. - that, as a whole, I think we don't really know if there's anything or not or what it is if there is. What we do have is this - here, now - even if some believe that it's just part of a whole reality or that it's not actually reality. I think we should live our lives as best as we can, whether we believe it's our objective "purpose in life" or we just sort of make up our own purpose (so to speak) or whatever. Do what we can with what we're pretty sure we have.
Hope that makes some sense. I've never known how to word that. One can never quite get across precisely (accurately) what they are thinking to other people because nobody thinks exactly like anyone else!
