What religion do you have the most contact with where you live? How much do you know of the others?

Question

What do you base your opinions on? where do you get your information from?

Answer 1

Where I live now I'm surrounded by right-wing Christians. I've studied Catholicism, and Islam in great depth for many years, I studied other branches of Christianity, including the LDS, I've studied pre-monotheistic religions, neo-Paganism and Wicca, psychology, abnormal psychology, archaeology and anthropology, philosophy, logic... sheesh I'm getting tired of listing them. I got my information from: books, college, studying the religions inside and out from every angle and perspective humanly possible, analytical comparison... I'm getting tired of listing that too... I think you get the idea.

Now I'm studying Buddhism and Buddhist philosophy, etc.

Answer 2

Christianity, live in a suburb of Dallas. I read a book on Taoism when i was 16 came back to it nine years later, I know about 40% of Taoism, even though i claim to be it, I know bits and pieces of Buddhism, Sikh, Hinduism, Bahai, very little of Shinto, a bit of Shamanism, and bits and pieces of other branches of Paganism. Ive met a group of Hare Krishnas once, that was interesting.

My exposure to other religions is limited, considering my location.

I get my opinions of christianity from personal experience, the rest is by research, I had a friend that was Bahai.
