In the Ranma 1/2 manga, Kasumi is clearly seen wearing a cross on more 
than one occasion.  So it is reasonable to assume that Kasumi, at 
least, is Christian, and quite possibly the whole Tendo family.

Not necessarily... perhaps she was just a big fan of In Nomine? :)

	Well, Kasumi strikes me as the sort who doesn't wear jewelry for 
the sake of wearing jewelry.  Anything she'd have on would be of personal 
significance, either because of her own actions or sentimental 
attachment.  So if she isn't Christian, perhaps her beloved mother was...

walked in on Dr. Toufuu when he was with a patient.  Deliberately."

	"Kasumi, we've talked before about these fits of jealousy you 
have.  Since neither you have declared your interest in each other, you 
have no right to insist on his sole attention, even if he were interested 
in other women."
	"You're right, Father.  I'm sorry."
	"Well, I think 50 Hail Marys, 25 Our Fathers, and an extra pan of 
those delicious fudge brownies for the parish bake sale this weekend will 
do as penance."
	Yes, thank you.  You have no idea how much this helps, Father.  
Sometimes I think I'm going to break down and scream in public, but 
confession and prayer always brings me back to normal."
