Religion: __________

A lot of application forms have this portion: Religion: ____________.

Most often than not, I leave them blank. It is not because I am an atheist or an agnostic or simply a godless wanderer, but it is because I think religion has its depth that no one could ever categorize. Be it a Catholic, a Protestant, a Muslim, or a Seventh Day Adventist, there's not much difference I think.

I am born a Catholic. I always say that my parents are both Catholic, so that makes me a Catholic as well (and basically because I am christened in a Catholic Church). I used to go to church until my fourth year in high school. I stopped going to church, and I started reading the Bible (Yes, I read the Bible). And everything became different.

I started discerning things. I listened closely to what the religious people preached about god and the universe. There I found fault in their understanding of the Bible and of their religion. I found that they took it according to their own beck. Some took the meaning of the Bible in a literal way, which I find to be offensive since I believe that no book or any literary work should be taken lightly. There must be some science that could explain the Bible. There must be some science to explain god. There must be. There will be...in time.

And as for my religion? I want it to remain a blank.
