At 10 years old, what do you think you would have been at?

For me, I'm not what my parents are, so I don't think it would have affected me.
Do you think if you're parents would be hardcore fundie muslims lets say , would you still be an "agnostic" (whatever that is, since it tells me absolutely nothing about your beliefs)?

Claiming "I would be the same is ridiculous", since you aren't born YOU the way you are now, furthermore I can bet ya even during the timeline of 5 years your opinions on various issues will & have changed as a result of certain knowledge/experience/etc. So saying "I would still be the same me" even though you are ging to be brought up & have totally different experience is bullocks.
