Modern Religious Experience: Reflection Question #1: "According to Mircea Eliade religion has 'not vanished without a trace; [it] has contributed toward making us what we are today and so, after..."
My dad comes from a family of very devout catholics. Since my mom does not practice her religion very often, if at all, my parents have raised me as a Catholic. They have put me in small Catholic Schools for all of elementary, middle, and almost high school, where we went to mass every friday morning, reconciliation once a month, and took religion classes everyday. I have been baptised, gone through first communion, and been confirmed.
Despite all of this, I still dont see myself as a true catholic. I never practice my religion anymore, except for the few times a year my dad takes me to church. Althoug I dont, see myself as a true catholic, I still abide by the same morals that I learned in my 8 years at a Catholic School.
