My Religion Identity Jarod

My religion identity is hard to define because of the big difference between my

paternal and maternal family background. On my mother’s side, my grandparents
and uncle are all piety Christians, including my mom. They would go to church
together once a week before I was born and bless the food before every single meal.
Some family members on my mother’s side have lived in Canada for decades.
Sometimes, they will come back to Taiwan just for celebrating Christmas together. On
the other hand, the father side of family’s religion is Taoism. They burn incense
sticks, join temple fair and traditional parade. They also pay attention to the good
days and bad days on a lunar calendar Taoist use.
Back to myself, it is difficult to obey and understand the rules on both sides, it is
also hard to cater to all of the family members. Honestly, I feel more comfortable to
be a Christian. In my opinion, Christianity is like a religion which tells you to first love
yourself then love others in order to be blessed by God. Though there are still some
taboo in Christianity, there are more taboos and things you shouldn’t do if you are a
Taoist. Maybe I will become a Christian formally in the future.
