God?

I am in religious limbo, and I'm not talking about that place you allegedly go after you die. My mother is Jewish and my father is Catholic. This leaves me stuck somewhere in the middle. They never chose for me, thus leaving it up for me to decide. After 21 years I still have not decided what I am, and I don't plan on it. I've been to both church and temple, doing so didn't sway me one way or the other. I have to say that the only perk of this limbo is being able to celebrate both Christmas and Hanukkah, and yes I do get gifts on both. My parents never focused on religious beliefs, so I am not affected by them at all.

With that being said, I wouldn't be able to bet everything I had that there is definately a God. Maybe if I had strong religious beliefs, I would be able to bet everything. I do not know enough about either one of my religions to make that wager. Besides if there is a God, would he or she really want us betting all of our stuff on the question of his or her existance?
