Which religion do you follow? Why did you pick that one?

[Pedro de San Patricio]

Just out of curiosity.

 

[PratchettFan]

Buddhism. Because I am a Buddhist.

And you?

 

[Pedro de San Patricio]

Buddhism. Because I am a Buddhist.

What brought you to that particular belief system though? Did you pick a sect? Why did you find it to be worthwhile/credible? I'm not saying it's not. I'm just interested in your line of reasoning.

 

[Uncensored2008]

None.

Started as a Christian, then later became Buddhist.

I found Buddhism even stupider than Christianity and became Agnostic.

This one is looking better and better by the day!

Sort of "back to our roots'. Way, way back......

If I have to confine myself to a religion it would be spiritualism. But I include theosophy and the basis of Buddhism in my belief system.

Of course, you're a Southern Baptist. That makes perfect sense.

Spoken like a true bigot commie pig.

So why don't you edify us with your views on Southern Baptists, and tell us which of their beliefs you find abhorrent?

Christian, non-denominational, because after exploring almost all of them, it was the one that offered a truth I could not explain away or deny along with being the one that made the most sense to me.

 

[OZman]

I hold no religious affiliations, but I believe that man has a spirit.

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

Just out of curiosity.

I follow no religion. I am a follower of Jesus Christ. The One True God.

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Just out of curiosity.

I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I joined the Church in 1979 after many visits by Missionaries and my own prayers. I still believe the Church is true but I don't attend services. I don't do well in groups or crowds.

Oddly enough, it was a Buddhist teaching that best explains my Christian faith:

“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.”--attributed to Siddhãrtha Gautama (Buddha):

I am a successionist Baptist in the tradition of John, because that's what Jesus was.

 

[theDoctorisIn]

I don't consider myself a member of any religion, although I enjoy a lot of different religious services.

I've been going to the Zen Center a lot recently.

I'm not a communist. I admit that I am bigotted toward the religious, but I'm trying to be better about that. I can sometimes act like a pig and eat like a pig -it's true.

I don't think any of their beliefs are abhorrent. Some of them are ridiculous, some of them seem nice. You express the ones I think are ridiculous more frequently than the beliefs of Southern Baptists which seem nice.

Pardon me, but what bigotry is in that statement?

Yeah, you still haven't answered the question.

Which ones are *ridiculous*. And please explain how it *makes sense*.
