Ok,
hypothetical,
you can choose between Christianity, Judism, Islam, Hinduism, Wicca, etc.
I'd say the Budhism that involves a diety, but not the Budhism that is a "philosophy" - which most of us pretty much are already as Atheists and Agnostics - the Budhist within us but without a God to worhship.
Which would you choose and why.

Wiccan. I've already practiced it and it is one of the most tolerant out there.

None unless it could be budhism of the philosophy kind, but i will go with budhism that involves a diety. The reason because budhism seems to be the most peaceful

Buddhism, even as a "religion" I would just focus on it's philosophy. No need to proselytize, can study science at the same time, even the religious kind still sees the godhead as a nebulous idea, not some angry guy in the sky.

Didn't you ask this already?
If I had to choose any, I'd choose Wicca, not because it particularly appeals to me but because they don't seem to preach or mutilate their offspring.
Out of Christianity, Judaism and Islam, only Jews seem to by the peaceful, no warring ones, but that's probably due to their oppression during the last world wars.

Reform Judaism (or Judaism Lite, versus the Conservative or Orthodox approaches). It encourages you to question its teachings and encourages discourse over what life and religion are all about.
I grew up Catholic, the "this is the way it is and asking why means you are faithless" religion. That pretty much turned me off to all orthodoxy, but I can appreciate some of the precepts of almost all religions.

I am an unbeliever.
If I was obliged to pick a religion, I would adopt tibetan-buddhism, but I really wouldn't be happy with this.
I would be less unhappy with tibetan-buddhism religion rather than with any other religion.
But even though I had to be in deep despair, I wouldn't fall into any kind of religion & spirituality belief - including buddhism.
I definitely don't trust any kind of religious & spiritual belief.

My first choice would be Buddhism as well. I find Buddhism very intriguing and actually find myself holding a lot of buddhist beliefs.
My second choice would be Wicca if I had to choose because it's also a rery interesting religion to me.

Hinduism. What do the other religions have to worship? Men with beards? Screw that, I'm worshiping a dancing fat guy with the head of an elephant and a hundred arms.

It is precisely because I can't rationally choose that I am an agnostic. All religious beliefs are equally credible. How can you decide which of many equally credible beliefs to choose?
Still, if I were forced to pretend to choose, I'd go back to being a Christian because at least it would make my family happy.

I'd go with one of the pagan religions. I'm already drawn to them anyway!
Although I do not believe in their gods either, they at least make some sense to me. That there would be more than one, that they would be like the personification of a natural item, etc.
