Re: Do you follow the same religion as your parents? -

My entire extended family is one small mob of godless heathens, happy to say.
Also, I'd like to point out that the poll here is badly worded and something of a false dichotomy; both "yes" and "no" answers imply that you and/or your parents follow some religion, which is obviously not always the case.
The atoms that make up you and me were born in the hearts of suns many times greater than ours, and in time our atoms will once again reside amongst the stars. Life is but an idle dalliance of the cosmos, frail, and soon forgotten. We have been set adrift in an ocean whose tides we are only beginning to comprehend and with that maturity has come the realization that we are, at least for now, alone. In that loneliness, it falls to us to shine as brightly as the stars from which we came.
