Check out the link below.
I think the word you were looking for was incest, not incence.

As I'm sure you are aware, there are full time protyliting missionaries in the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints, however I would not say they or we "intice" others to join. Inticement suggests dangling some carrot in front of a person thereby leading them to do something they wouldn't otherwise do. The missionaries and members do present information to people, then ask them to pray to God about it to see if it is true.
I think we are fair to all. There are some things we don't agree with, but I think we treat or at least try to treat everyone with fairness, equity and respect. We believe in one God, the Father of All. We believe that there is truth in all faiths and invite all to bring that truth and see if we can add to it. We do not believe in torture, as as all are equal we don't believe in class systems. We do however believe that there are different roles for men and women based on intrensic qualities held by each.

I'm including two links. The first is to a site that might answer some other questions you have. The second is a brief list of what we believe called the Articles of Faith.

That about sums up Wicca except there is one God and one Goddess but they are just the male and female aspects of the Everything. Lets see...

Fair to all.... An in it harm none, Do as thou wishes. yep.

Belief in one god.... I already covered that one.

does not entice others to join... you can look into it or not, it is your call.

Holds all as equal including women... big time yep there.

is against incest... well we don't judge but that does cause problems legally so it falls under the "harm none" clause.

would not degenerate to torturing... well we have been tortured but not done it to others.

and does not believe in higher or lower class system.... well as there is no 'official' leader of Wicca and never will be I think it is safe to say that we won't see a class system.

Granted I am only trying to answer your question and I am sure others will also. I encourage you to look at each option and those that don't even get mentioned and try to find out about each yourself and choose the one you think fits you best.

Best Wishes for you in finding what you seek!

Greetings,
If you are serious then I would suggest that you try following the teachings of Christ as found in the New Testament and not get hung up on joining a church or a denomination as those are at the root of our problems with the arab and muslim world today. If the catholic church would have adhered to those teachings as found in the bible then our world would not have as much hatred towards those that proclaim to be of the christian faith but are actually the poster children of wolves in sheeps clothing.Not only did they assault the middle eastern culture but also assaulted the christian community for not having the same outlook as they adopted.
You need to read the New Testament and obey the Ten commandments for a starter.Then you need to accept Jesus as your saviour,repent of all your sins real or imagined and then ask for forgiveness from God. Then pray to God in Jesus' name for what youwish to petition Him for and always thank Him for all of His blessings which have been accorded you.

universalist unitarian

Unitarian Universalism (UU or UUism) is a theologically liberal, inclusive religion. The name resulted from the consolidation of the Unitarian and Universalist denominational organizations in 1961. Unitarian Universalists claim a theological orientation that aspires to creativity, freedom, and compassion, with respect for diversity and interconnectedness. Followers encourage spiritual growth, social action, and education. The "free and responsible search for truth and meaning" is a traditional Unitarian Universalist goal.

The Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), founded in 1961 as a consolidation of the American Unitarian Association and the Universalist Church in America, is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, and serves churches in North America. The UUA represents more than 1,000 member congregations that collectively include more than 217,000 members. Unitarian Universalists follow a congregational model of church governance, in which power resides at the local level; individual congregations call ministers and make other decisions involving worship, theology and day-to-day church management. The denominational headquarters in Boston in turn provides services for congregations that can more effectively be handled through joint efforts. Founded in 1995, the International Council of Unitarians and Universalists (ICUU) serves congregations throughout the world.

Both Unitarianism and Universalism trace their roots to Christian Protestantism. Many UUs appreciate and value aspects of Christian and Jewish spirituality, but the extent to which the elements of any particular faith tradition are incorporated into one's personal spiritual practices is a matter of personal choice in keeping with UU's creedless, non-dogmatic approach to spirituality and faith development. Even before the Unitarian and Universalist movements combined their efforts at the continental level, the theological significance of Unitarianism and Universalism expanded beyond the traditional understanding of these terms.

guess what you're wrong buddy, when i first read your thing i stopped and was like islam. then i read ur opinion and i have to say i disagree. i took some lessons on these issues and found islam the closest thing. Real islam is not what you see on tv or hear on the radio. real islam is good, does not bileev in killling or hurting even plants, respects all religions (bin laden and his frends are not real muslims), has no class system, infact when muslims go to worship they are required to wear the same thing so that status doesnt show on anyone,

There is a RIGHT way. But to say to accept all, that would mean you were not truly part of that religion. It is offensive for to accept and to embrace another religions god or lack there of. You would truly want to tell people the truth. There is but one real Truth, and no, it is not in Islam, jehovah's witness, mormon, buddhist, hindu, etc. Look here...

I enjoy reading about Taoism. I have a few friends who are UU and it seems to be pretty open-minded. I personally find being spiritual rather than religious gives you the most flexibility for morality without judgement.

Christianity is basaically all that except for a couple things. 1. Christians don't try to "entice" other people to join we try to reach out to them and tell them the truth because we care. 2. Women are equal in a sense but women are commanded (in the Bible) to be submissive to the men in authority over them.
