If you had to follow one religion, which religion would it be? And why?

I'd follow Christianity personally because I think the morales of the book are a really good thing to take in even if you don't believe in god.

Buddhism

I already believe in Karma, it would seem a natural choice. I agree with your assessment of Christianity, I've said as much myself quite a few times.

Buddhism just because of its laid back, down-to-earth nature.

That or Origin. Nothing like burning people alive for blasphemy.

I understand that, I think most people who follow the unmoral atheist life style will go to hell.

I think the atheist life style can feel like hell sometimes without direction and stuff.

I would call myself more agnostic than atheist. But either or, I believe in no God, and consider that to be very much my own Heaven. It is certainly not a hell.

No seriously, all religions are trash.

Morals do not come from god, or tablets. You do not need religion to find morals, in fact you'd have better luck finding morals in the book of rick james than the holy bible.

If you believe there is no God, that is Atheist. Agnostic is where you don't necessarily believe in one, but you don't discount the fact that there could be either, or in simpler terms, that it's impossible for us to know whether there is or is not a God.

That's kind of a thoughtful question. I can't really answer it. Being raised Christian (Baptist) and turning from the faith, I could never go back to Christianity. But I don't know enough about any other religions out there to make an educated decision about them.

I am aware of that. I was simply saying that I am still torn between the 2 premises.

Lol! I will read up on it sometime. I doubt I'll ever be any sort of religious person ever again, but it's simple respect to get what knowledge you can about other religions and cultures. I promise, just for you Slip, that I will read up on Buddhism sometime soonish.

Church of Altana, bro.

CONVENIENTLY PLACED PLOT ARMOR FOR HER FOLLOWERS AND ALL THE UNDERAGED (EXCEPT YOU PRISHE) TEENAGE SIDEKICKS YOU CAN ASK FOR.

Plenty of dark gods to fight too if you're into that too.

Hinduism is pretty cool too. One time Shiva blew his son's head off with a third eye laser beam. Parvati was all like "HEY GO GET A NEW HEAD FOR OUR SON" and he went "o ok here's an elephant head". That is awesome.

I wasn't serious <.< but okay! It's actually not that bad of a religion though, and it has some interesting beliefs in it. It's worth the simple Wiki browse if for nothing more than the cultural enrichment.

i can see disagreeing with the first line, which is a pretty general statement (and possibly not meant the way you interpreted it). but for the second part, i agree that you don't need a religion to have morals. it's also annoying that some religious fanatics always act like people who don't believe in the same religion are them are HORRIBLE PEOPLE.

Name one thing that religion offers that cannot be done by purely secular means, and is also based in proven fact and not fairytale afterlife unsubstanciated claims. Just one, i'll wait.

You could just adopt a set of beliefs that aren't technically a religion. I like determinism myself

I dunno. It seems several of the religions are okay, I like the general morals they teach, but there's parts of them I disagree with. I'd probably choose one of the christian religions, I just don't know enough about each of the individual sects(IS THAT WHAT THEY'RE CALLED IDK) to pick one.
