How often have you changed lifestyle?

[Kean]

...and what led you to such a change?

....

In my case it was a pretty linear evolution of "updates" in my spiritual system.

My parents are Christian Catholic, but I grew in a multireligious environment so I heard from all possible cultures, took a bit from here and there since I was a kid.

I was, however, quite strictly educated in sciences (physics, biology, chemistry) since middle school and as a consequence I always compared religion to religious history and scientific evidence.

My philosophy has been more or less: science approximately states where we are / how things are, while religion can help or guide us towards where we want to go, or towards the unknown. Science can reveal new possibilities or confirm what is conjectured by religion.

My moral/ethical guidelines, however, changed (or have been confused) whenever there was some event in my personal and social life that contraddicted anything that was taught by a religious saying.
Example...
religion: monogamy is the best form of romantic relationships;
experience: very few people are actually monogamous;
scientific evidence: human beings can be both monogamous or polygamous;
---> my updated moral "rule": respect any form of romantic relationship while working on your own ideal form.
