I'd say the Pagans, if I had to choose. They live closest to nature and respect the earth and other people. Them and the Buddhists.

The monotheistic religions are far too intolerant and hate-filled to be considered a good way to live life. And they treat the Earth like a giant waiting room on their way to get to paradise. Never a good thing.

In all major religions, the followers strive to rid themselves of sin through various practices. They may pray in a prescribed way, do various good works, deny themselves legitimate sexual pleasure, follow dietary restrictions, lie on beds of nails, etc. The uniqueness of Jesus is shown in His statement, "The Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins." No other religious leader has ever made this claim. Jesus Christ alone can wash away every sin anyone has ever committed, be-cause of what He did on the cross. By paying the penalty for our sin, He can release us from the torture of guilt. We cannot do anything in the way of religious works to wash away our sins. Forgiveness is a free gift of God (Ephesians 2:8,9).

It depends on what you mean by "way of life." Spiritual? Moral? Legal? Psychological? Philosophical? Most major religions address very different elements of life. Where they do overlap, they usually complement one another, and advocate the same basic principles: act on empathy toward your fellow man, know yourself, maintain due reverence to God.

Freedom of Choice

[33:72] We have offered the responsibility (freedom of choice) to the heavens and the earth, and the mountains, but they refused to bear it, and were afraid of it. But the human being accepted it; he was transgressing, ignorant.

[33:73] For GOD will inevitably punish the hypocrite men and the hypocrite women, and the idol worshipping men and the idol worshipping women. GOD redeems the believing men and the believing women. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.

Do Not Follow Your Parents' Religion Blindly

[5:104] When they are told, "Come to what GOD has revealed, and to the messenger," they say, "What we found our parents doing is sufficient for us." What if their parents knew nothing, and were not guided?

[5:105] O you who believe, you should worry only about your own necks. If the others go astray, they cannot hurt you, as long as you are guided. To GOD is your ultimate destiny, all of you, then He will inform you of everything you had done.

No Compulsion in Religion

[2:256] There shall be no compulsion in religion: the right way is now distinct from the wrong way. Anyone who denounces the devil and believes in GOD has grasped the strongest bond; one that never breaks. GOD is Hearer, Omniscient

[2:257] GOD is Lord of those who believe; He leads them out of darkness into the light. As for those who disbelieve, their lords are their idols; they lead them out of the light into darkness - these will be the dwellers of Hell; they abide in it forever.

Did Jesus or his Apostles follow a religion called Christianity? Who were the first 'Christians' ? Who founded Christianity and do the teachings of Christianity conform to the teachings of Jesus?

The teachings of Paul, the true founder of Christianity, cannot be found anywhere in the teachings of Jesus or in those of prophets before him.

All! They all have have some truth in their teachings the hardest part is trying to find out which ones are the right ones for you. There is no one true church, for they all are, saying otherwise would mean that every other religious church members but the true one is going to hell, and I don't think that's plausible, do you?

you're going to get a lot of different opinions on that question.
anyway, i say islam. in my religion we dnt say that muhammad(pbuh) is the only messenger of God. We know and believe that Jesus, Moses, Abraham, Noah, etc.... lived, and that God did send them to His people, but we say that Muhammad was the last and final prophet that God sent to us, and that we should follow the religion that God had created for him to present to us.

I know the one I believe....

I can tell you, but you are way better off if I show you....

Research.... is the only way to figure it out. Blind faith is worthless

Yet some assistance can be a benefit, so if you want some, let me know?

"For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men, instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus,who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself a people of his own possession, zealous for good deeds."
(Titus 2:11-14)
There are 10,000 opinions, but I have found in Jesus Christ the power to live an honest, productive, useful and loving life, filled with hope and the abiding presence of the Living God.
"For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them." (Ephesians 2:8-10)
Peace to you.
