I still cross my fingers for luck.

I'm agnostic but Amy Grant's christmas music was a staple from my childhood and that still holds up quite well. Also some Jon Bellion songs, while I'm on the topic of music.
Honestly…I actively avoid all things religious, especially dogmatic religion. Of course there are religious influences all over the place and I cannot say with certainty that I don’t get affected by it, but given that the most popular religions currently (Abrahamic) were essentially engineered to control the masses, I consciously try to avoid them and their influences.
Sadly, where I live, I can’t throw a rock without hitting a church so without moving to an uninhabited island, it’s stuck in my life in one way or another.
And before someone says something about morals, morality both predates religion and doesn’t require being a human to have any. In other words, one can have morals without ever being exposed to religion.
I get this goes against the grain here, and doesn’t exactly answer the question, but it’s an honest answer.
Every December I start practicing classical guitar arrangements of Christmas music, just like I always have.
Was raised atheist.
After reading Flatland and playing The Forgotten City, I feel like any number of human religions could end up being "true" to some degree. But it would involve aliens, or interdimensional interlopers or something.
