I feel something of a need to contribute.

Although I was raised as a Catholic, I am now veering towards Buddhism. Buddhism is, as I see it, at the core of virtually every religion and has a firm grounding. My faith in it is not total, but with time I may have glimpses of enlightenment that will solidify my belief. In Buddhism, life is a pursuit of truth and purity.

That is, for me and in Buddhism, the purpose of life.
