Not that I hate religion. It's just that the question keeps popping out in my head in my daily activities. So, are most of you believers or not?

God created us and taught us the way to live in this world. His teaching is called religion.
In short God created us
and He taught us religion.
Most of the religion is not in original form, people have corrupted it for their convenience. So, in most religioin God's teaching is mixed with teaching of satan

NO. We created both first God and then religion. It is like an ant painting a life size picture of an Elephant, that is what humans have done based on their individual visions. What is the true nature of the Power if at all, who or which created the creation including us, we humans can only make our guesses (religions) but never know the truth. But how humans including Jesus and those who followed him, were created Darwin's theory of natural selection is quite convincing, so far it has not been repudiated by any shred of evidence except empty air by the religionists

religion was ordained by God, even through Adam, the first patriarch. what the kingdom of God would be if it were on earth is not even close to the nations of babylon, and even the united states.
Religion in its most holy and pure and undefiled existence is defined in the bible that has a beginning of caring for the widow and the fatherless. After that it is defined as ZION or ISLAM depending on which one you choose to believe.
in the whole history of the world I know of only 3 or 5 societies that had the true KIND Of religion that is universal for all believers. However I know that at least 2 of them self destructed.
Enoch was the most well known prophet of all history that He walked with God and was taken. There are those that believe the city of zion or the city of Enoch was taken too. because of their exceeding perfection in obtaining the righteousness of God.
Everything else throughout history is weaker and only a shadow of things known because very few people can even come to KNOW what Gods righteousness is. Therefore christian religions can only form according to how enlightened their founders are. And true enough by the 1800's many christian groups believed the true religion/church no longer existed, as the same that Jesus Ordained his Apostles to Sow.
So in my opinion and conclusion All churches in todays generation of the world, are man made or imitations created by Satan. but even still, there are a few that claim to reject babylon and totally rely upon Jesus as their high priest. Such faith has its blessings and rewards. but i dare say NONE Of them teach the complete truth because of the corruptions of satanic influences.

There are a lot of theories about religion (s), faith, the existence of 'prophets', 'mnessiahs', 'god', 'gods' and various 'bibles'.
I too wonder about it, and did some research and there are too many conflicting discrepencies in the various writings and teachings in the various gospels and bibles. Although ALL religious books, whatever the faith, offer to us all a moral code in which to live by. Over the centuries, these codes have diminished, religions have been manipulated and abused by 'mankind' for its own rewards - as part of the culture of control, fear and hatred.
The best thing I suggest is to do research, read up about the subject matter, make your own conclusions and do not be misled by fanatics, zealots or televangalists!!

Man thought up religion, not God. God told us to worship only Him. He never said we should have denominations and specified buildings and the real church is the body of believers. It's not a place with stained glass windows where you go to worship once a week. The true church lives in Him and Christianity is not a religion but a way of life.

Chicken and the egg syndrome, while no one will ever know any truth 100% behind any form of religion, it is here to stay.
I don't believe religion created us, we created it in the hope of trying to understand the abnormal things seen across the land thousands of years ago, why the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Aztecs etcetera worshopped all forms of deity.

People passed down fairy tales in ancient times and these were mistakingly turned into beliefs and into religions by several clowns who decided to follow them. And today we still have the same nuts following all these silly little religions that were mistakingly made up thousands of years ago. Don't you think its time to toss your fairy tale Bibles and Qurans away already?
