My dad's side of the family is composed mainly of bible-thumping Protestants, atheists (many of the bitter, I don't need your god variety), and confused agnostics like myself. My dad actually believes there is truth in all of the religions throughout history, as these 'beings of the sky' were likely extraterrestrials visiting Earth, and the people looked on them as holy. So yeah, little different.
My mom's side of the family is all Catholic, or at least raised as such, like my mother. My mom typically only went to church regularly during one of her come-to-Jesus sort of phases. Mexican Catholics, shocking right? I used to go to church with my grandparents when I lived with them, and sometimes later on, mostly holidays. I didn't dislike it. Some of their beliefs are a little...intense, though. I remember telling my crazy aunt about my having seizures, and the first thing she asked was when was the last time I had been to church, and demanded that I go talk to the priest at her church with her before mass. LMFAO!
