Just wondering what I should believe. Convince me.

I am Universal Unitarian. It fits everything that I believe. There is always room for different opinions in this belief. There are no specific ceremonies unless you/ your family wants to attend them. It opens the mind to other cultures and respects them even if you do not agree with them. Most Universal Unitarians are very laid-back Christians interested in learning about other cultures. Nothing is strict in this religion. All are united by the thought of a "Higher Power."
I wish you the best on your spiritual path.

You shouldn't have to be convinced to believe anything. If you want to become a Christian, you will feel it in your heart. I don't know about the other religions, but being a Christian wasn't drilled into my head. What happened to me was I was looking in the closet one day and a bible fell down off of the shelf. I picked it up and for some reason, began to read it. I didn't get through Genesis before something came over me and I felt this trememdous amount of love rush through me. The feeling is undescribable. I just remember bursting into tears. But, it's not for everyone. You just have to have an open mind and spirit and let your religion choose you.

there is nothing you SHOULD believe... as a matter of fact a lot (if not all) of religions just say the same stuff but in different ways... but stilll each of them wants to be 'the right one'...
I do have a spiritual side, but I like to read from different religions and cultures instead of being limited by the religion I was born into.
As to what to believe? just believe in yourself, and treat people the way you'd like to be treated. Sound cliche, but works fine for me.

I am a Christian. I follow Jesus.
I try to treat everyone I met with respect and the dignity they deserve. I try to lift up others- not destroy.
I believe in helping the less fortunate, with my time and money.
I have peace in this troubled world.
I believe I will see my Lord when I pass from this life. And what went so wrong with Adam and Eve, will be righted.
I believe that when someone understands and knows Jesus, they too will see- the wonderful, awesome person/God He is.

I converted to Catholicsm 15 years ago, mainly because we were starting a family and my wife was Catholic. I agreed to take the classes with the condition that I had to believe in my heart the doctrines and teachings of the church. I don't think you'll find any religion that will satisfy your beliefs 100%, but for me the Catholic Church came close.

I'm Lutheran. I don't know what you should believe or how Christianity relates to your life, but I'll tell you what I believe. I believe that Jesus came down from heaven to die and save us from our sins. And if we pray for forgiveness we will be forgiven. I'm not trying to convince you, but I hope this helps in some way. God Bless.

I'm a Christian and in the denomination of Seventh-day Adventist. I believe in God the Father, Son, & Holy Spirit. Christ is the risen and living Saviour. You should believe in what ever you feel is right for you. Just in case you need some help try opening up the Bible and visit some local churches around your city. Try visiting a Seventh-day Adventist church or even a non-denominational church. May the Lord bless you in finding the right path in your life!!!!!!!!!!God bless you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My religion is Christianity.
It is the truth.
The Gospel restored by Jesus Christ through the Prophet Joseph Smith in the Latter-days.
You must pray, ask God to know the truth with a sincere heart.

I am Asatru. I am there because I have always been drawn to the Norse Gods and it has a rich history behind it, one that is trying to be reconstructed today.
I won't try to convince you to believe anything. You should follow your own heart.

I am not trying to convince you of anything. You must convince yourself. I am a Catholic and I chose this path after much studying and research. I continue to choose it every day of my life.
