I believe having Jesus in my life is a must. If you have Jesus you have God as well.

No. Having God in a life is good for many people; I'd imagine believing in God gives life direction, provides motivation to be generally good, and allows life to be put into some kind of perspective. But a lot of people do all that without believing in God, so for them it's not important at all.

Yes!
FAQ: Do Swedenborgians believe in the Holy Trinity?
"The idea of God, with all conception of Him, having been thus rent asunder, it is my purpose to treat, in their order, of God the Creator, of the Lord the Redeemer, and of the Holy Spirit the Operator, and lastly of the Divine trinity, to the end that what has been rent asunder may be again made whole; which is done when the reason of man is convinced by the Word and by light therefrom that there is a Divine trinity, and that the trinity is in the Lord God the Savior Jesus Christ, like the soul, the body, and what goes forth from these, in man; and that thus this article in the Athanasian Creed is true:"
"In Christ God and man, or the Divine and the Human, are not two, but are in one person; and as the rational soul and the flesh are one man, so God and man are one Christ." -- True Christian Religion n.4[3]:

No. I believe having a good upbringing and a good sense of morality, responsibility and compassion (not necessarily derived from religion) in your life is a must.

I believe it is a "Must-Not".
Asserting their is a god adds NOTHING to our understanding of the universe we live in; and it demands that we SHUT DOWN the inquisitive, rational, skeptical part of our brains if it should cause us to question anything written in scripture. Should we REALLY believe that there is nothing more to learn about the universe than what a bunch of Bronze Age primitives could observe in their sheltered little world more than two thousand years ago?

Yes. Without God, what is the point? I would be lost.

yes, this is very important. Otherwise, it's hard to keep your sanity with the issues of today and before.

Absolutely--We were not created with the ability to rule ourselves.
