Not very surprising, as most of my family practice Reform Judaism. I avoided answers like "There is no God" or "We don't need religion" because I recognize that religion is an important (yet often damaging) aspect of human society.

I've never actually bothered to know what my beliefs are called, so I guess accurate.
After looking at their definitions, Secular Humanist seems a bit more accurate…I just have a few of my own beliefs to slightly alter that.
EDIT: More like Theravada Buddhism minus being against abortion abortion actually.

Totally didnt expect that, which is funny because I attend an Adventist church. (I have serious issues with their beliefs though and would never call myself an SDA. My beliefs dont hold to a particular denomination IMO.)
