Christian. All commands, laws, rules, etc fall under these three:

Love God with all your heart, soul, strength and mind.
Love your neighbor as yourself.
Love one another as Jesus loves us.

See 1st Corinthians, Chapter 13 for a good explanation of Christian Love.

But most importantly:

John 3:16 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)

16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

I am Wiccan. Wicca is an Earth based religion meaning that we feel Mother Earth is central to our existence, we are nothing without Her. Wicca is mostly about self-empowerment. We don't believe that begging a Divine being for help will get us what we want but that by working with the Divine and doing for ourselves we can achieve our goals and help make the world a better place.

As far as what I stand for; I believe everyone has the right to their own religion.

I have absolutely no religion; I'm not an atheist, I'm not agnostic, I'm not even a humanist. I refuse to fall into a catagory because no organized religion could ever come close to grasping my ideas.

All organized religion does is cause trite problems between people that inevitably cause casualties and fatalities. If you look into history, you'll see that God is the single leading cause of death.

all people should seek knowledge, not spirituality.

I have no religion... I am an atheist.

I stand for what is right in the world. Free thinking, doing right because it's the right thing to do not because of promises of eternity or threats of hell, giving to others, taking care of the earth, freedom to practice whatever belief you choose without the threat of being hurt because of it, and preserving the family unit.

I am a nihilist. The theist believes there is a god/goddess/gods/etc, the athiest believes there is no god, the agnostic doesn't know what to believe.

I reject the notion of belief entirely. To say there is no god requires just as much faith as saying there is a god- neither can be proven. But where I differ from the agnostic- I do not care if there is a god or not- he is irrelevant to my life, my choices. I exist because i choose to exist. I make my own choices, define my own path, and face my own consequences. And to waste time worrying about a deity we will never know for sure exists or not, or worse, to submit to it, destroys my individuality and my liberty.

Further, the institution of religion and spirituality on a social level creates cessation in personal action- as one prays to a god, casts a spell, rejects action in the name of rejecting desire, etc. In doing so, it kills revolutionary potential, and makes the liberation of humanity from its material methods of enslavement (the state and privatization of capital) impossible. this leads to the conclusion that the church and religion itself need to be abolished.

Nothing.
But I keep a strong beleif.
I stand for an open mind, and the safety of this earth.
One shouldn't say stuff such as "God is the only God, if you aren't Christian, you will go to Hell!" etc, etc.
Keep and open mind, thats my motto.
Want to know why?
Because, if one believes in only one thing, they might be horribly, horribly wrong in the end.

I am an agnostic. It stands for the belief that no one knows what the true religion, if any, is. I stand for my beliefs and morals. All should be equal and just

I'm an atheist, and stand for the use of intelligence to apply logic to evidence to solve problems.

My religion is Hare Krishna, or Krishna consciousness. It's all about developing my love for God via His mercy by remembering Him and serving Him and His pure devotees.

The idea is that this world is like a prison for rebellious souls, who are averse to serving God, but He sends representatives to remind us of our true heritage and inheritance, as sons & daughters of God, who is loving and merciful and not at all jealous or revengeful.

the laws of material nature take care of awarding us the reactions to our activities. When we begin to serve and love God, the higher, conscious eternal blissful spiritual nature begins to be felt.

The process is very simple. Chanting Hare Krishna mantra and hearing from genuinely Godly persons about God and the proccess of developing our love of God.

All genuine (God-given) religions have this goal - Love of God, and each give different processes (details) to acheive this principle, according to time, place and circumstance to suit the people there. Therefore all religions and religious people, in fact all people, are respected for that.

Does that make sense to you?

I don't follow an organized religion. I believe in god and believe Jesus lived and taught. I respect his teachings. I believe that the Bible is based in truth but much of it has been lost or lost in translation. I believe that the truth of the Bible is from the point of view of primitive men trying to either recount their history from oral to written tradition or explain the events of their day from their perspective.
I believe that God did initiate creation but science will one day tell us how. I believe our purpose is to improve as a people till we may interact with god as a peer.
