OK, serious question. What is the main idea behind your religion.?

Question

I've got the Christian one already. But I am curious about the other ones. I don't need to know about Jesus, I know that one. But if you practice something else, I would like to know about it. So please tell me what religion you are and something about it. Please only serious answers, I would really like to know about this.

I really like these answers. I hope I get some more responses from other religions.

Answer 1

I'm an eclectic and don't believe that any one religion has all the answers, or can provide a "map" of how to live spiritually. I therefore read about different religions, philosophy, science, etc and try to discern the little hints, or guideposts, hidden in them.

I try to keep my mind and my heart open. However, I do not like organized religion as I feel they are more about social control than spirituality. I feel they have some things to offer, but I speak against the accepting them in entirety.

Answer 2

Sorry I'm a non-affiliated what ever. Was brought up as a Catholic until I saw what a despicable religion they were. I've been around the religious block and I think you should be like most religious people out there and just be a hypocrite. I have only met one individual that was truly a religious man and lived his religion. Most religious people I know could care less for the Environment, Animals, or their fellow man unless they can somehow put money in their pocket.

Answer 3

Thanks for your question :)

Well I'm a Muslim and Islam means If a person fully surrenders himself to Almighty God alone, worshiping Him purely will live in
peace and harmony in this life and in the life after.

while a Muslim is A Person who submits to God and here is some main points in Islam
Every human being is born pre-formatted to
submit to GOD.
• Human beings have free will.
• No compulsion in religion.
• People are born without any inherited sin (All humans from Adam and Adam from earth)
• No supremacy: All people are equal. ( Piety not racism )

as for our beliefs we believe in

1. Almighty God (Allah)
2. His angels
3. His scriptures (Books)
4. His messengers
5. The day of resurrection
6. The divine destiny.

Answer 4

There is an enormous difference between religion and spirituality. I choose not to affilliate myself with what I believe to be is probably God's biggest embarrassment. My belief system stems from the basic belief that 'harming' or manipulating or otherwise imposing my wishes on another person is a big fat NO NO. Life is too short to be polluted with garbage of controlling another person. Otherwise, do what you will.
Blessed Be~

Answer 5

Reincarnation. We come back to Earth to live other human lives after this one. The point is self-improvement, to become enlightened and in harmony with the universe enough to not need to come back. I'm a new age Pagan, but I believe in the Buddhist teachings too.

Answer 6

For Wicca you could say there are two.

1) The Wiccan Rede: An it harm none, do as thou wilt.

2) Save our planet.

It is we who are responsible for our actions and not an external force or entity. We are a part of the Divine and therefore Divine ourselves.

Answer 7

I am a Wiccan and practice a neo-pagan earth based spirituality. It is based on a belief on the interconnectectedness of god/goddess and the universe, a respect for all nature and our responsibilty to care for Mother Earth.

Answer 8

I will not tell you what religion I am, but there's one basic tenet.

In all things, strive to do what is right.

There's a lot of other stuff, but it all comes back to that statement.

Answer 9

Well, I am without religion (atheist) and base my thinking purely on the available evidence....

ALL of the available evidence. :)
