Whats your religion?

[Graham]

This will turn into a religious debate... seen it before, I'll see it again. For one of two reasons 1. Someone that can't handle someone making a joke on their religion. 2. People that can't handle the thought that someone believes in a religion.

Anyway I am a Christian.

[SirJamesaford]

Panthesist.

Which is basically atheist.

Do tell...

It's actually really pointless. But I can sum it up in 3 words.

God is everything.

[SirJamesaford]

How is that related to atheism... atheists dont belive in god... Im confused

[{LAW} Gamer_2k4]

Buddhism for sure... thats a very respectable religion.

Buddhism isn't a religion; it's a lifestyle.  As far as I know, there's no reference to the supernatural, no theories of our origin, and no afterlife.  It's simply a way to live one's life in the service of others.  A good cause, I have to admit.

I'm Christian, but I don't belive in God at all, because it's waste of time to believe if you don't have any proof.

Then you're not a Christian.  And even a belief in God doesn't make you a Christian.  I think it would be useful for you to read the Bible (at least the New Testament) before you decide that you're a Christian.

Your right, but the God I'm talking about isn't the man in the sky.

God is the Universe

You know what, it's not even worth explaining. It's just watered down atheism.

[SirJamesaford]

OOOOOOOOOOOOkay i get it now...my bad

Yea but it should still be in this thread as all religions are lifestyles really.

[Vilho]

How can you be a christian and not belive in god?

What I meant was that I'm baptized and I am part of Christian church, but my faith has disappeared during 10 years. I've started to use my brains.

Huh?

[Red_Dawn]

religion is fine just don't try to recruit people.

[truup]

I also think, that baptizing little babies is immoral, the little fellas can't have any chance to avoid it.

Yeah, but you confirm it when you are 15, and that is you own choice will you confirm it or not.

Yes, I'm christian too, but I kinda go on same line with Vilho, allthough sometimes I do feel that god exists.. (doesn't mean I'm a believeing christian, I'm making no fuss about it at all)

[SDFilm]

Agnostic.

[Rhombus]

I'm an ignosticist, and also a I-hate-it-when-people-call-me-an-atheist-o-ist

[Chariot]

I don't see any immorality in saving them.

Lutheran Christian.

[SDFilm]

Christian.

Also, "Other" is actually too broad in this case, but I can see you were trying to put only the more well-known Religions...

Here's a list of other ones:

Acosmism • Agnosticism • Animism • Antitheism • Atheism • Binitarianism • Deism • Determinism • Ditheism • Dystheism • Esotericism • Gnosticism • Henotheism • Humanism • Ignosticism • Kathenotheism • Monism • Monotheism • Monolatrism • Mysticism • New Age • New Thought • Nondualism • Nontheism • Pandeism • Panentheism • Pantheism • Polydeism • Polytheism • Spiritualism • Theism • Thelema • Theopanism • Theosophy • Transcendentalism • Transtheism

Of course, I doubt anyone here has even heard of half of those.

Sorry for being picky, but Monotheism and Polytheism religion types but not religions themselves.

[LeetFidle]

Im a jehovah witness. Yeah, hate me.

[Pred]

I'm an ignosticist, and also a I-hate-it-when-people-call-me-an-atheist-o-ist

I did a bit of reading on Ignosticism. It seems like you believe that there is some larger being watching over us, yet you have seen no consistent definition of said being (the word 'God' being meaningless) and therefor remain uncertain of said being's existence until a clear definition is made.

Am I in the ball park here? It's probably better if you just explain it

[NK Soldier]

I'm muslim.. I go to a church called a "Mosk".
