When did you first realize what faith you were?

When I was about 9, I wanted to watch Harry Potter but my grandmother wouldn't let me, when I asked her why she said that it was because it had talking snakes in it which meant it was honoring the devil. Unfortunately for my grandmother my young mind interpreted this as saying "You have to choose between religion and snakes." As a looked at a framed picture of Jesus later that day, I suddenly thought to myself; 'Do you know what's cooler than some dead guy? Snakes.' So what was your first revelation? When did you first think "Hey, I'm a(n) ______."

    I am a Panendeist, or somebody who believes in Panendeism. It's the belief that the universe is part of God, but not all of God, and that this God is laissez-faire when it comes to human interaction. When I couldn't get into any well-known organized religion, I thought I was an Atheist, but I couldn't bring myself to accept that this vast universe was just random chance. There's so much beauty and good that's overshadowed by malice and evil that we think that a God has left us or has never existed at all. Or that because we have science proving how we came about, that this completely disproves a greater being planning out these systems and laws of life that we have been built upon. Life is not just black and white... ...man. TL;DR I believe there's a concept of God. He's a cool spirit and doesn't afraid of anything. This happened around...end of sophomore highschool year.
