Heh, none of the above. I was baptized in the Lutheran church as an infant (by my Thai Buddhist mother), raised as an agnostic/Buddhist (very loosely), confirmed as a Lutheran (age 14, encouraged by my Buddhist mother to go along with my Icelandic father's tradition), became a Christian (also age 14, on my own), attended Baptist church throughout high school (on my own), enrolled in a Free Methodist-affiliated (evangelical) university for my undergrad (totally on my own), converted both my parents to evangelical Christianity (stepdad was a lapsed Catholic, mom a fervent Buddhist)... and then went out into the wide world, and lived.
