Is there such a religion?

Question

People ask me what I believe, what my religion is. I say I don’t have one. Although I hate the word religion, mainly because people are controlled, ruled, and beaten by it, but I still want to know if I have one. Atheism believes in matter, the physical, the here and now, with no divine forces of any kind, and that the end is it, when you die you are nothing by dead. Although I do not believe in “God” of any kind, I do believe in reincarnation, and the elements, Mother Earth. I believe that the world has a way of balancing everything out, a reaction to something unknown to us, or something humanity did or caused. I believe in spirits and charkas, I’m against all war, but I’m for the death sentence and pro-choice. I do not define my life by the past which I had no control. I do not need to know how the earth was made, how everything there is came to be. The fact that matters is that it and we are here, now, living. Humans should not define themselves or be controlled by their money, their job, and even their religion. They should be defined without control, their life should be defined by experiences, and how free they are to do what they love, as long as what they love does not cause harm to others… Is there such a religion?

Answer 1

Sounds an awful lot like Wicca or one of the related Neo-Pagan paths to me. You've got the belief in reincarnation (which is common in Wicca), reverence for the elements and the Earth, the concept of balance, the concern with the here-and-now over the past, and the idea of "If you harm none, do what you will".

Answer 2

it is frequently modern-day in a number of the eastern religions. some thing on the subject of the ten avatars of Vishnu. Buddhists, present day pagans,sikhism, the Dali Lama, Hindu, and Jainism are some examples of non secular communities who have confidence in reincarnation.

Answer 3

I'm sure someone has begun a heathen religion that pretty much follows your outline. Why do you think that that is the truth?

Time to start a new one. You will have many followers!!
