    For me, I think I would have to go with Buddhism... while not one who practices Buddhis, from what I have read on it, it sounds pretty damn good. Of course it is not a religion per say, but definetly a solid beleif system.

    I subscribe as closely as possible to most Buddhist doctrine. I'm a novice to be sure but I would consider myself a Buddhist for all intent and purposes.

    Favorite?? Does this mean you can change whenever you feel like it?? Sort of defies the cred of that religion or belief if you decide it's not your fav anymore.

    I stick to a belief system that appears to be logical and true in every sense. There will never be another favorite for me.

    Col :)

    I was baptised greek catholic and i have never heard a more spiritually uplifting hym then a melkite greek catholic mass. There are very few greek catholic churches where im at but i love going to roman catholic masses which i have been raised in most of my life. While i love my faith i also have great respect for other religious beliefs . I especially love the non violent beliefs of the buddhist faith, and the way that not even an insect can be harmed in a buddhist temple, the hindu religion for their vegetarian beliefs, the muslims for their charity to the poor, born again christians for their devotion to jesus:).

    Religion is like sex. Keep your weird perversions at home, and everyone's happy.

    My favorite? Church of Satan. They're so tongue-in-cheek it's funny.

    What if you've read the book and you don't like the ending?

    I think we need to keep all books at home too.

    Haha, I saw the title and was planning on posting:

    I'm agnostic but am intrigued by Buddhism...

    Like you said, it seems like more of a way of living then a religion

    Well then you give the book the appropriate ending or judgment right?

    I am not religious and I do not think I would ever follow any religion as I don't believe in believing in that way. But I do think the eastern religions (such as Buddhism) are the most interesting. They are the ones that really make me think. Western religions seem to be far behind intellectually.
