Belief - repost

Question three was borked. Rewritten to actually cover all the bases, and not be internally contradictory. Apologies to the 7 people who already filled it in!

Sorry, how is "I believe in.." not a belief system?

What I'm asking for is the poll to exclude those childhood beliefs burned into us by society/parents/whatever.

I mean that there is a difference between believing in what a religion teaches and practicing its rites and rules.

Most children do not follow the full set of rites and rules of a religion until they are past a given age. In some religions that age is marked by a ritual. In others it is not.
