: : Are you a religious person?

: I'd say definitely spiritual, but I'm not so much for most organized religions.

: : If so what religion do you practice?

: Zen Buddhism -- although I'm not sure I'd call as much of a "religion" as a "path".

: : Have you ever questioned your faith?

: Yep. All the time. Buddha told his followers to question his teachings and find out for themselves. Questioning is part of the path.

: : Was there a particular moment or event that sparked your questioning?

: I was raised Christian and tried that for awhile as an adult, but it just didn't work for me. After one of my best friends committed suicide, I started reading all I could about religions and philosophies. I stumbled onto Taoism and then Buddhism, both of which led me to Zen Buddhism.

Buddhism and Zen Buddhism?
