    If I could Pretend to be a religion...*smiles*

    I would go back to my Anishinabe culture..

    Either Zoroastrian or Buddhist.

    Both have several points in common with the aspects of Christianity I find meaningful. The idea of respect for, and aid to others. The idea that what you do matters. The idea that while there are some simple rules to follow, the following is the challenge, and through that challenge we grow, both as people and as spiritual beings.

    That growth is the important thing.

    Pretend? I don't pretend at anything...

    I have respect for all religion, but I learned quite a bit about Buddhism when I was in high school, and it is a very peaceful and beautiful belief. So I guess that.

    Roman Catholic, I would like to talk to a cardinal or at least a father that is well versed in the bible and could (and be willing to ) talk about the abnormal things that are in the bible that no one wants to talk about in the "normal" Christian world. like the pictures that were painted with strange flying objects that most attribute to angles.

    They would pick atheism (I know atheism is not a religion) but they think it is and they would also like to look as if they are all smart and stuff. My new religion is no religion!

    Buddhism, and I would take it for more than a year. I would definately have a lot to learn, it would be a great experience.

    I am not very religious anyway, religion didn't answer any questions for me untill now

    Messianic Jew..they practice the Jewish religion, Jesus was a Jew, but the also believe Jesus is the Messiah...so I wouldn't have to give up Jesus Christ.

    it wouldn't be a Christian faithfully if i answered that question however i think I'd probably be agnostic because i could open myself to all religions and still believe in a God or higher power.

    I couldnt choose because all religions are about trying to find god whether you believe god exists in yourself or is an actual being. It doesnt matter how you find god all that matters is you do

    I'm a Christian and my husband is Agnostic. So I already live both sides.
