I am a fan of Jainism, their doctrine of Ahimsa (non violence) is awesome

Nope, not one. Because I'm a woman. And there are no religions which treat women as equals, and most are disgustingly misogynistic.

I'm okay with Mormonism to some extent. I have very good friends (and an ex) and they have always been open and warm and nonjudgmental with me. Plus they don't believe in hell.

There are aspects that I admire about every religion I have learned anything about. The first one I connected with deeply was Taoism. Zen Buddhism has wonderful insights. Now, after years of abandonment, I have finally learned how to love my religion of origin, Christianity. Literal interpretation of any mythology is poison to the soul. Learning how to see with metaphorical eyes unlocks the hidden truth. "Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Approximately 80% of the human population consider themselves religious. Eighty per cent is not "few". What they have found is not "it". "It" is not magic or superstition. "It" is not supernatural. "It" is peace of mind through cognitive development. No belief required. Just knowledge. Merry Christmas!

no

I might fall quite outside the consensus here, but what the hell. I think in picking and choosing there are aspects in most religions that I really DO like. Paganism and Zen held a lot of attraction for me. And then I heard about Sufi, some of which says: it does not matter by what name you call your holy prophet, but whether it makes you a better person to call on that. If not, stop doing it. Also: the only holy book ever written by God is nature. Yea, that's what I think. I also do embrace much of Christian thought. I don't regret having been brought up catholic. I like the idea of helping those in need, which Islam specifies even more clearly: give 10 % of what you have to those more in need. I love much of Islamic art and poetry. Jewish humor is the best, and their argumentative relationship with God. So, I feel all religions did add something to the big adventure called humanity.

I was raised by a Buddhist grandfather and a Protestant grandmother. I felt more along the lines of a Buddhist, then a Taoist, if anything, but overall, my lack of faith in a god-head honestly locks me out of religions. I must admit though, I do admire Buddhist, Taoist and Transcendentalists. I do consider myself spiritual, not religious.

Buddhism...it seems so calm (serene) and the whole pacifism thing but I have come to believe that it is just like any other religion.

The only thing that would qualify as a matured religion is Gaia-ism (hope I didn't just make up a nonsense word). I don't know if they celebrate holidays. Maybe Arbor Day is their "Christmas"...and the day that Christmas trees are sacrificed for Christ-mass is their "day of the dead".

Not really...

Catholicism: philosophical base.

I like some of the circle ceremonies with the Wicca circle. I like the way the land comes into their belief system. Soil. I thinki it would be interesting to study

I'm Jewish. We revere learning and don't evangelize. That puts us over some of the more regressive faiths.
