Listen to me my Young brother. If you wait for someone to show how to live your life, then you are definitely making a big mistake from the very beginning of your life. I f your question is asked to study people's mind and how the society thinks and what are its constituents with respect to religions, then you are smart enough. If you are smart, then don't take anybody's answer as the way of life, but evaluate how every body thinks and then go to your own self and ask yourself the question. The best answer you will get is the answer that you receive from your own spirit. The spirit that makes you a free man not obligated or restraint to any rituals you should do to go along with what people practice. Be your own man and find out how to live your own life the best you can. Your spirit in you will give you the answer. God bless you!

We all see patterns in the world because our brains detect and appreciate patterns. For example, you might appreciate the shape of the swan or the duck in the clouds. Because we choose what to see, we also choose our reality.
When we study dreams we discover the same is true, random synaptic brain waves get interpreted by the mind into a dream story and we thus create our own perception of the dream reality.
Look backwards and realize that it is you that creates what you see. When you look at a cloud you choose to see the shape, such as the swan or a duck. When you look at your life you choose to define yourself by what you see as well, your wins or your losses.
So when choosing a path, choose the path that best defines you. Because in the end, the religion doesn't get you there, you do.

You can try to know Catholicism.
Catholic people are "true" Christians, cause they follow the way and teaching of Jesus, protected for more than 2000 year from apostoles first and for Popes, priests, etc. etc. to avoid misunderstanding and falsification things...
Jesus is Truth, is God became man to die on the cross to save us from the sins and give us THE WAY...now, God revealed what people have to do to be good and be "close" to God...
If you want i can talk with you more deepen than now about this religion, the one i follow plenty...
Just let me know and i can contact you or you can contact me...
I'm sure you cannot be feel or think wrong with this religion...for anything!
Bye!

First ask yourself why do you feel that you need religion? Are you in fear of something you have been told? Do you need someone to lead you around in life? Or can you make it on your own?
Think about this, There has never been any recorded miracles in History. Each has been prov in to be a trick. Don't cloud your mind with the fear of others.

I think that anyone who would follow the advice of someone else about something as important as religion is an idiot. Do your own research, examine different faiths, attend services for different religions, and find the one that speaks to you. Your religions beliefs are between you and whatever creative force you choose to revere. You should find a religion that feels right for you, not one that is suggested by someone else.

The only true religion that has proven itself is Christianity. Jesus Christ proved that he had the power over life and death when he rose from the dead. And he says that we will go to heaven if we believe in him.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son so that everyone who believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
Christianity is the only religion that offers a living savior.
Everyone has sinned and falls short of the glory of God and we all deserve to be punished and go to Hell for our sins. But because God loves us so much he wants us to spend eternity in Heaven withhim so he sent his son, Jesus to take the punishment for our sins. Because God is a God of justice, He could not let our sins go unpunished, so He punished His own Son, so that we would not have to be condemned to hell for eternity.
If you would like to become a Christian you must accept Jesus into your heart. You may pray a prayer like this one.
Dear God: I know I am a sinner. I believe your son, Jesus Christ, died on the cross for my sins. Please forgive me of my sins and make me a new person. I commit my life to you today. Amen.

It is important that you fine a true bible teaching church so that you can be with other Christians and grow in your Christian life. There are many churches out there that are teaching false doctrine, but the one that is the most basic for teaching the truth is The Baptist Church. I will pray for you.

You really need to follow your heart through prayer. Don't join a "feel good church". You do want to feel convicted from time to time. It just brings us closer to our Lord. I would stick to a church that has a pastor that preaches out of a King James Version Bible. The NIV has many important verses left out of it. Yes, on purpose. Just be sure that the church you join has a pastor that doesn't make up his own doctrine. He should be giving verses so that everyone can follow him. He should preach how to be saved from Hell as well as how we could go to hell. I'd say, with out a doubt, you should join an independent Baptist Church! You need to pray about this and seek Gods guidance!

Dear, i rekon u better study religious books and then make your decision. And because i am sure if you really go for it you will select Islam as your religion. Quran tells you everything. It tells you the art of living. Without any error. And i promise you will not find a single mistake in it. So following Quran means you will be living a life without errors.

no one can answer this very personal life choice for you ..........your old enough to start opening up and listening and feeling what feels right to you ...........
read some books on different ones ,,,,,attend different churches [this is very effective ]and you can tell which one makes you a better ,caring person ..............
but take it from me you dont have to FIND a religion to find your spiritual path ,,,,,watch the people around you ,ask questions ,and dont be fooled by any of them telling you they are the ONLY right one ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,use your gut feelings and your own intutition and brain .
best of luck to you ,i hope you discover what is comfortable for you and what makes you a good and decent human [we sure need them ]

I've been a Christian my whole life, but I read and study theology from others. Right now I'm reading up on Buddism. I'm not going to become a Buddist, but helps me to move forward in my faith life in general.
