I am an atheist, and I have been one for as long as I can remember, although my parents are Christian. Already in elementary school I was furious about having "completely unbelievable fairy-tales taught to me as if they where facts"
If asked about mindfulness and spirituality I come to think about Richard Feynman, as in this comment about a flower.

That said, I have been scratching very lightly at Buddhism, since I started my mindfulness. And while I will never become a Buddhist in any real sense, I think it might be a good thing for mindfulness to remember its roots.
Are you religious?

I am a deist. I believe in god but I am not ready to accept the facts about super natural power. But I am not religious. I have faith in all religions such as Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism etc.
