Christianity 'cause it makes more sense to me than other religions.

I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses, and the reason I believe in it is because it teaches only what the Bible teaches. My mother was a Methodist preacher, so I came from that back ground, but I studied the Bible (intensley) for ten years on my own, and read every book by Christiandom's writer's that I could find, no one addressed the questions I had in a Scriptural way. There were just too many mysteries and I know that God did not give us the Bible, then leave so many gray areas. The Witnesses were the first and only ones that answered all of my questions and helped to clear up all the misinformation that I had gained previously, and they did it using God's words and not their own, just as Jesus taught when he was on earth. It has been the most awesome years of my life and I continue to learn more every day, and it is all in the Bible. Plus, I knew it was the true religion because of the love among all the congregation worldwid.

John13: 34 & 35: "I am giving YOU a new commandment, that YOU love one another; just as I have loved YOU, that YOU also love one another. 35 By this all will know that YOU are my disciples, if YOU have love among yourselves.”

and they do just as Jesus commanded:
Matthew 28: 19 & 20: "Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded YOU. And, look! I am with YOU all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.”

Jehovah's Witnesses

I believe them because they gave me a free bible study, and backed up what they beieve with the Bible. The more and more I looked into things, the more and more I was convinced, until I had no doubts.

If you give them a chance, they'll prove to you that there is a God, the Bible is from God, and all they believe is in line with the Bible teachings

Just two of the many things that stand out -

Go to Google and look at the origins of Christmas and see how pagan it is. If you are using pagan celebrations to worship 'God', who are you really worshiping.

Matthew 15:8-9
8 ‘This people honors me with their lips, yet their heart is far removed from me. 9 It is in vain that they keep worshiping me, because they teach commands of men as doctrines.’”

Also most religions teach that when you die you go to heaven, hell or become a ghost. That's the original lie told by Satan the Devil, that we don't die (Genesis 3:4). Our only hope is in the resurrection after armageddon which hasn't happened yet (2 Peter 3:3-10).

2 Timothy 2:18
These very [men] have deviated from the truth, saying that the resurrection has already occurred; and they are subverting the faith of some.

Well I might get abused for this I have in the past on this forum, but here goes
I am Catholic and very proud of my faith, I believe in the Church because I can do the work of Jesus by being able to teach at schools about the Bible and attend Mass and praying with other people or on my own.
I feel by attending Mass I feel closer to God because I love celebrating what God has done for me

Islam! because all of the other religions that came down to earth spoke of it. and everything in islam talks about humble and being good to people doing the right thing takin care of yourself your body, family etc. anything that talks about peace and happiness for the whole world that should be the right religion. (Beside what everybody say about islam and terrorism its not true! they dont relate to islam in anyway or shape. so the wrong picture is given about it when all over its the best religion out there.)

I am Wiccan because when I was a teenager and even later, I went searching for my path. After exploring many different religions, I discovered Wicca. It spoke to my heart and soul. This is reason I am that very same faith today.

I'm Southern Baptist, that is only a denomination.
I am a Christian, I believe in God and I believe in Jesus Christ.
Why?
I take God's Word, the Holy Bible, on faith and faith alone. The Holy Spirit resides in my heart and yes I can feel His presence.

It is hard to accept something that you can't see or touch, isn't it? That is where faith comes in.
You can't see Satan either but you can sure feel his presence in and around your life.
That is the difference in living in the light vs. living in the darkness.
Our humanness (sin) guides us toward the darkness & that is what Satan loves.

No religion - atheist! Lack of proof means means I don't believe it.

I have no religion...I'm an Atheist.

I choose not to believe in a god/gods/higher power, because I can.

I don't feel it, see it, smell it, touch it, hear it. I think the bible is fiction, and i think religion was made to control the masses.
