Just got interested when I did read the social class thread.
My mother, a Roman Catholic, converted before marrying my Protestant father... in order to please his family... but only pro forma because she used to pray with us every night, took us to Catholic Church services and made us light candles in church. Still she told us we were Protestants which must have been odd for her. My dad on the other hand did not care for our religious education at all, he is nearly an agnostic.
As a kid I used to hate my misfortune of having a Protestant father because I wanted to be a catholic. I felt so much more like a catholic. As a grown up I am happy to have no pope telling me what to do and am not overly religious... still I FEEL more like a catholic.
What is your experience?
