So today I was hanging out with some new school friends and then the religion topic came up. I was asked if I was religious, now all my close friends know the answer to this question, and considering it's not social etiquette to ask this kind of question, it caught me off guard. I responded, "I think so".
Afterwards, I felt unhappy about how I handled the situation, after some thorough reflection, I now have a more appropriate answer if anyone ever asks me again. I believe religion is a totally relative/subjective matter, therefore it's not right to quantify an individual based on their religious beliefs.
How have all of you handled this type of question? Do you answer straight away or do you find it's a personal matter?
