My its been a strange week. From a late Monday Mission to an early (for me anyhow) Friday Five.. here goes:

1. Were you raised in a Particular religious faith? Yes indeed. I am a red sea pedestrian.
2. Do you still practice that faith? Why or why not? Well, not really. I am not sure how I feel about the whole "GOD" issue. However, there are certain traditions I grew up with that I still observe or remember fondly. However, I do seem to believe in fate, which presupposes a higher power, doesn't it?
3. What do thing happens after death? I'm not sure about that that. I'm fairly certain that the body decomposes and gets eaten by worms. I have empirical evidence suggesting that something happens with the engergy after a person dies. There is a transfer of energy somewhere.
4. What is your favorite religious ritual (participating in or just observing)? I have only celebrated this particular holiday a couple of times, but there is a fun holiday called Tu'Bschvat. It is a combination of Arbor day and Earth day - kind of giving thanks, appreciating the fruits and nuts and the trees. I'm a tree hugger - what did you expect?
5. Do you believe people are basically good? Yes I do.
