I want to choose a religion to follow. Which one should I choose and why?

Question

I was thinking scientology. Then you get to meet celebrities, pray to ET, and get to use a sci-fi book as a bible.

Answer 1

Well let me ask you a few questions. Just say i bring a machinary in front of you that no one has ever seen before and i ask you who knows the function of this machine. You would obviously say the manufacturer or the maker or the creator or the inventor etc. So how do you think the world came out, or the universe and all the nature. If it just came out of no where how can it be so perfect. Okay moving on, the study of embryology right now has just been discovered recently that is about a hundred years ago. But who do you think told about the development of an embryo before 1400 years ago in the Holy Qura'an, obviously the Creator (GOD). Next point, it was only before like 500 years or so people started to admit that the world is spherical in size but then the Quran said this 1400 years ago. Who do you think would have said this, obviously the Creator(GOD). My next point, it was only a few years ago that science told us that the sun rotates on its own axis, but Allah said this in the Holy Quran 1400 years ago in chapter 21 verse 33 ( you can confirm it by referring to the Quran). It was only recently that science says that mountains prevent the Earth from shaking but my Creator, Allah said this 1400 years ago in Chapter 78 Verse 6 and 7. And another point, science only recently found that the universe is expanding but Allah said this in the Quran before 1400 years ago in chapter 51 verse 47. Hope i have proved enough about the existence of God.

God said in the Quran about one of the evil unbelievers who forbade the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, from praying at the Kaaba (Holy Mosque):

Let him beware! If he does not stop, We will take him by the Naseyah (front of the head), a lying, sinful Naseyah (from of the head)![Holy Quran 96:15-16]

Why did the Quran describe the front of the head as being lying and sinful? Why didn't the Quran say that the person was lying and sinful? What is the relationship between the front of the head and lying and sinfulness?

If we look into the skull at the front of the head, we will find the prefrontal area of the cerebrum, in the area we call the forehead. What does physiology tell us about the function of this area? A book entitled Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology says about this area, "The motivation and the foresight to plan and initiate movements occur in the anterior portion of frontal lobes, the prefrontal area. This is a region of association cortex.." Also the book says, "In relation to its involvement in motivation, the prefrontal area is also thought to be the functional center for aggression..."

So, this area of the cerebrum is responsible for planning, motivating, and initiating good and sinful behavior, and is responsible for the telling of lies and the speaking of truth. So, it is proper for the telling of lies and the speaking of truth. So, it is proper to describe the front of the head as lying and sinful when someone lies or commits a sin, as the Quran says:

...A lying, sinful Naseyah (from of the head)!

Scientists have only discovered these functions of the prefrontal area in the last sixty years, according to Professor Keith L. Moore

Im not an expert in Islam, but there are people with better knowledge than me and all ill say is Islam is the true relegion and hope to see you as another brother or sister in Islam. You can watch the video of this expert speaker in youtube and his name is Zakir Naik, which might make you a bit more confident and reading the Quran would clarify all your doubts im sure.

Here is a site for the Quran in english transalation-

Answer 2

I did not for a at the same time and relatively felt the change. I have happiness in being Mormon. I additionally positioned plenty of labor into watching at the entire religions I would uncover and so they have been all lacking some thing most important besides for the only I comply with now. Not that I concept they have been all dangerous. Some had well teachings...

Answer 3

"And this is the way to have eternal life - to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth" (John 17:3). Most people believe in God, even Satan does. But to receive salvation, we must turn to God, form a personal relationship, turn away from our sins, and follow Him. We must trust in Jesus with everything we have and everything we do. "We are made right in God's sight when we trust in Jesus Christ to take away our sins. And we all can be saved in this way, no matter who we are or what we have done" (Romans 3:22). The Bible teaches that there is no other way to salvation than through Christ. Jesus says in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me."

Jesus is the only way of salvation because He is the only One who can pay our sin penalty (Romans 6:23). No other religion teaches the depth or seriousness of sin and its consequences. No other religion offers the infinite payment of sin that only Jesus Christ could provide. No other “religious founder” was God become man (John 1:1,14) – the only way an infinite debt could be paid. Jesus had to be God so that He could pay our debt. Jesus had to be man so He could die. Salvation is available only through faith in Jesus Christ! “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).

Answer 4

Only you can say. Perhaps you will want to create your own individual "religion," as I have. Go exploring among the world's great thinkers (in a library, on the Internet, wherever you find them), and see if you can find a group that comes close enough to what you believe personally to be a comfortable community for you.

But if you want to collect all the different ideas from this one question, most of what you will get are those who proselytize. That's a fairly small subset of the world's religions. Most of us do not count on getting brownie points for converting others.

Answer 5

I would say Christianity if you consider Jesus as the teacher. Read one of the biographies of his life such as Mark in the Bible. The reason why is because his teachings work. He basically suggests serving others as a way to live in a childlike, fun way. He is so childlike that he made a huge amount of wine at a party after people had a few too many. He like to have a good time with people but also teach them how to be better; religous people tend to be way too solemn and serious, but not the childlike Jesus. So following his religion makes life fun, I find.

Answer 6

Think about Pascal's wager:

Many people say that everyone will get to heaven. Born again Christians say that the only way to get to heaven is by trusting in the death and resurrection of Jesus, and to trust him as Lord and Savior.

If the first example is true, then even born again Christians will get into heaven. If born again Christians are right, then everyone else will be omitted. It would be foolish not to be born again.

Start reading the New Testament.

Answer 7

If you want a close personal relationship with God try the course in miracles.

It gets you there without a lot of nonsense theology and dogma. Religion tends to divide and separate.

Is that what you really want?

Answer 8

I suppose I should show my bias and say Hinduism but I think you need to research and experience different faiths on your own...usually there's a feeling you'll get when you know you've "found" the right one. If you live anywhere near a Hindu temple, please call the priest first to ask when a good time would be for you to visit the temple (I'm assuming you're in the U.S.?)

Answer 9

Kabbalahism. I think that's how you spell it, haha. This religion is very peaceful. A lot of celebrities in the past 5 years have gone for this religion. It is very interesting! You should definately research it.

Answer 10

Roman Catholicism. It is the one that God established Himself. It is the true religion. It is the truth. If you are looking for happiness and truth, that is where you will find it.
