  1. this is such a bogus list, Steve Jobs was a practicing Buddhist, and to include Marx makes the list more satire than fact

  2. Since they were raised Lutheran, it could be considered a common denominator for the group, yes? Unless you can find something else to tie these folks together.

  3. I was raised Lutheran and still consider myself one; however, my dad was Dutch Mennonite, I was saved at a non-denominational Dutch Reform church in Chicago, baptized and spirit-filled in a United Methodist church in College Station, Texas, and currently attending a fundamental, non-denominational charismatic mega-church in DFW. I'm kind of a religious mutt.

  4. My mom was a non practicing Lutheran, my dad an ex Catholic and I'm atheist. Could be on the list too?
