And then I have a formerly LDS friend who lists atheist as his religious beliefs (guess who?), and that's pretty clear, too. I wonder, though, about the kid I knew in hs and college, whose dad was our bishop, and now he's got beach photos where he's covered in tatoos.

I find most people leave the religion section blank, which I also think is interesting. Don't you think you have a duty to proclaim your religious beliefs of facebook, Mike?
Why would you even bother listing it?

Mine is blank.

well, that particular question was more of a joke. why list it is the question, though. it's there to be filled out, as are a myriad of other personal details. why put anything? people fill out any portion because they want others to see that about them (presumably). or they are proud of it, or they want to claim it as part of them. whatever. so I suggest you leave it blank for some reason.

my favorite religion amongst my FB friends:

"if you are certain your [sic] right, your wrong."

Also this one:

"too complicated to label."

I'm thinking of listing mine as:

"better than yours"

or

"Non-Christian, Latter-day Saint

i leave most stuff blank, because i'm there to learn about others not disclose about myself.

Somebody told, 'yeah you don't disclose much."

"Nope."
