whats your religion? (if you have one)) and why??

Jehovah's witinesses

Baptist (Which is a form of Protestant Christianity)

Islam.

Jehovah's Witness

My religion is Islam and I m proud to be a muslim

I don't have one.

My reasoning? Well, if god is responsible for everything (Including the creation of Satan) Then he has allowed things like rape, murder and drugs to be in existence. If god was real, that all wouldn't be. And if he is real, he isn't a god worthy of my praise.

My worst thing about that is that I'm too prideful to worship somebody, especially someone or thing that I have never seen before. Oh, and there is absolutely no proof that he exists. So there! Science ftw!

Islam

I am a Catholic because I was born and raised as one

I do not have one.

Baptist! It's the best religion you can find! My family is Baptist so of course I would have to get saved sometime. But I got saved because I wanted to, not because I had to.

I'm agnostic

Islam. I don't want to tell why because it's personal

I don't believe in any religion
Or anything
Life is Life :/ I honestly don't care about all that other stuff

I DO believe that Christianity is a cherry picked religion
Pick the stuff you want to believe and ignore everything else

HINDU

I'm Christian..

My parents are mad at me because I am ALWAYS using god's name in vain..

I don't have much faith, and they fail to see that

*atheist*

But my girlfriend is a neo-Druidic pagan and I'm really into earth-based philosophies as a concept, I like the idea of energy flow and connection but I don't believe in dieties or anything.

I reeaaally don't want to cause any trouble by answering this question, but I will anyway.
I don't have a religion, I'm Christian. There. I said it. >.>

Christian - Methodist

I don’t have a religion. I am an Agnostic leaning Atheist and while I may classify all religions ‘Mythology’ may it be ‘Christian Mythology’ ‘Buddhist Mythology’ or ‘Greek Mythology’ I call them all as equally unlikely but still possible in my eyes.

Why? Well I don’t want to spend my life worshiping a deity that was told in a book but has yet to show his presence to us nor do I want to spend my life following some theories or ideas that have yet to be proven to be real. I don’t see any reasoning to support that there is a God or many Gods in the first place. Really, I don’t trust people easily and the whole idea of worshipping someone who Ive never seen, am judging off of rumors, and has long since been ignoring us sounds something absurd. As for the other religions, I never really bought them that much either.

As for why I do still recognize it as possible? Simply cause we don’t know. We really don’t know where the universe came from. We don’t know what is beyond our senses. We don’t know what happens in the afterlife cause nobody came back to tell about it.

Though until we get more information on it that can be taken as more factual, then Ill sit here on my ass and live my life the way that seems fun and enjoyable to me.

Besides, if theres a Heaven and a Hell, I already know Im going to the latter. Its too hard to get into Heaven and Im honestly not really willing to work hard to fix what Ive done nor do I plan to fit to a certain conformity and reduction of joy just to get into a paradise no one can prove exists.


And yes, I actually believe in Satanism just as much as I believe in Catholicism or Christian. You highly religious people can put me on the stake and burn me for that, but I wont choose a side until Im properly informed.


For those that are having trouble understanding how I distrust the bible as my source of info, Ill tell you my little joke.

What if a few thousand years in the future, a group of future humans (given we live that long) appear on go back and look at our remains to find out about our history and all. Then, while going through our remains, these future humans found this book that told about vampires and werewolves and the Savior Edward Cullen. -_- Yeah. That’s a joke and I know all the flaws but its kind of a representation.


By the way, I also have a few theories myself that I title ‘Riku Mythology’ which are more of theories mixing relgions/mythologies and random things I come up with. Also, yes, I don’t fully believe or disbelieve in a soul at that too. I don’t even fully believe or disbelieve this world is REALLY here. But that’s all just random things I think about.

Really, I don’t like saying one thing is one way or the other. Until its thoroughly proven, Ill accept the world as my eyes perceive them and not try to think too hard to figure out what it is.

I'm a member of the church of State Christianity.

We believe that guns were God's blessing, given to us to fight the Muslims, Communists, and Homosexuals.

We believe Jesus was a die hard republican, who founded the party to fight the evils of big Government, and help bring about a golden age of corporate rule.

We believe video games, homosexuals, atheists, and plastic guns were all inventions of the Devil.

We believe that we should love everyone, as long as they aren't fags, niggers, commies, or welfare queens.

We believe in our Lord and Savior Jesus "Ronald Reagan" Christ, who will save us from the evils of love and harmony among all men.

I believe in a giant, yellow duckling that rules this universe and all others. He is called the Grand Duck. He lays giant golden eggs, and in these eggs are universes which grow and grow until they hatch.
When we die, we all take on our true, duckly form and join the Grand Duck in the Duck Universe.

IN ALL SERIOUSNESS.

There isn't really a word for my "religious" point of view because I've crafted it by myself, for myself, within myself. I've grown to my beliefs based on my life experiences, what I know, and what makes sense to me and how I interpret the world. This doesn't mean that I don't look to "real" religions for inspiration on my spirituality, and I've been influenced a lot by different Pagan religions(such as Wicca) and a little bit by the Mormon church.

In short, my religion is that of myself. My spirituality is written by me, for me, within me, and it continues to grow and change as I grow and change, learning more as time goes on.


I think a lot of people are like that without even realising it, even if they stamp themself with the title of one religion. I've not met too many people whose ideas align perfectly with what they call their religion(though I've met a few), and most people I've formulate their own beliefs and interpretations to what best fits them, as I have, even if they call themselves "Christian" or "Muslim" or "Wiccan", or anything. If they didn't, why, then we wouldn't have the multitudes of religions that we do.

Beliefs are a beautiful thing, really, and regardless of what we believe, we all have them. Some people believe in God, some people believe in many Gods, some people believe that there is no God. Some people believe in magic, some people believe in demons, some people believe in angels. Some people believe in turning to spiritual beings for helps, while others believe in relying on themselves.

Religion and beliefs shouldn't be so touchy, I think, because in learning what others believe- even if we don't agree with them- we can learn new things about the world, it's people, and even about ourselves. I think people should be able to discuss beliefs freely and openly, because the beliefs of the individual are much more powerful than any of us realise.

My father raised me Living Earth (native american) But I follow Wicca. Some may know me as a "witch".

Christian. Although I prefer to view it as a relationship with Christ, not just a mere religion.

But I will be honest though.... I have the hardest time feeling close to God because of the stupid things I do...

At times, it seems as though He isn't even listening even when I'm trying to be sincere with my prayers.

Anyway, yes, I am Christian.

Islam. Honestly, I was raised by my parents who are both muslims so...yeah that's the why. (Not exactly a religious person)

Catholic

The Chantry, the teachings of Andraste.... the almighty Maker.

*Dives back into Dragon Age*

But in all seriousness, I'm agnostic.
