Please don't base your arguments on the actions of the religion's adherants. Explain by using the religion's beliefs, rites, Holy persons etc.

There are two, and one isn't really a "religion" per se.
The first is satanism. It twists everything that the Bible teaches, and its adherents are self-serving because the doctrine teaches them to be. In satanism, it's all about self. I completely disagree with that.
The second, which isn't really a religion at all, is atheism. While many atheists may be moral, atheism in itself does not promote morality because without supreme governance (i.e. God), morality is dicated only by societal constraints. In other words, morality is relative. Besides, atheists do not believe that there is a God, that there ever WAS a God, and/or that there ever will be a God. I can't agree with them there.

Unitarians. While I personally am a Christian, I can understand people choosing to adhere to just about any other set of beliefs (even if I think they are completely wrong). What drives me crazy about the Unitarian Universalists Church is that they don't seem to belive any thing. Even atheism have one unifying belief system (that there is no god). From what I've been able to gather from the Unitarians is that they believe everything. If you feel God speaks to you through the rock under your front porch, that is OK with them. If you believe in the Christian concept of God, that is OK too. I think that to call yourself a religion, you should have some core set of beliefs that you adhere to. In believing in everything, they seem to believe in nothing, and that drives me crazy. I know it is rediculous, but I honestly have less issues with athiest than with Unitarians.

I disagree with islam because the koran teaches people to do what the Bible defines as evil. Some examples are 33:50 that says muhammad could have sex with his aunts, cousins, and all slave girls. The Bible defines such as adultery and is evil. No real prophet would flagrantly break God's laws.
Ayatollah Khomeini issued a fatwah saying that muslims could have sex with animals, but should kill the animal immediately after sex.
Surah 8:12 tells muslims to behead "infidels", and according to islam every person who is not a muslim is defined as an "infidel". I have a serious disagreement with any religion that calls for the murder of all who do not accept that religion, and that is part of why I hate the evil false religion of islam.

I generally have the biggest problem with Christianity. It seems that it is more of a fashion statement more than anything. Sorry if that offends those that are true Christians, but your religion is tainted to the point that it is almost comical.
Catholics are hard to agree with, a religion based on membership fees in order to feel guilty.
And thirdly I would have to say atheism. I think its naive to think that there is NO form of a higher power

All that have a single pastor
A head besides Christ
Fascists that wish to kill others for not believing their way
All that claim they saw God or talked to Him like a personal meeting
all that choose to make up bible principal ... doctrine have creeds manuals guidelines beside the bible...
all that teach you are to follow the Old Test. tithing, 10 commandments have priests Septugents 3rd Testament
burn candles /incense wear dresses/robes keep people from gettng married
think that the earth is heaven and never to be destroyed
Just follow the bible and you won't be fooled!!!

For Debra and other misguided theists.
Atheism is not a religion. The only thing we have in common is a general disbelief in all things supernatural and paranormal. One you get past that we are as different as chalk and cheese.
We have unique, individual ideas unlike religion, and are generally tolerant and free thinking.
Major difference.

I disagree with the religion of self-worship. It is the most common, widespread religion and the most destructive.
It is the universal religion of unconverted human nature that is opposed to self sacrifice and self control. Its impact is seen everywhere in our world.
Self worship teaches that it is more important to do good to oneself than it is to do good to others. It teaches its adherents not to place the most favorable construction on the motives and actions of others.
It is easily irritated or annoyed when it is opposed or rejected.
Its principles change with circumstances and usually in favor of how one feels rather than according to what is right.
It is blinding in its nature and renders its adherents proud. I disagree with it because of its deceptive effects and its power to overcome me if I do not choose to be kept by the grace of God. If the love of God does not control my thoughts and feelings, I can be overcome by this religion.
In the end, it leaves its followers self-deceived, self-destructive and self-satisfied. Self worship is a terrible religion imposing a yoke of bondage on all who yield to its claims.

Pretty much all non-Christian religion. The Bible tells me there is but one way, and the rest(whether or not you appear good and live a moral life) are no better than satan-worshippers, it's just that satan has, within their beliefs, disguised himself better.
As far as Christianity is concerned, probably the Arminian and Roman Catholic soteriology.... it's mad wack, son! Faith + Works = spitting on the cross of Christ, followed up with a side of damnation. (read Finney)

I have to disobey your request to make my point, sorry,
I don't dissagree with any religion that promotes love, kindness and tolerance towards one and other, not even atheist. Religion is not the problem, it is people, weather they are religious or not who put other poeple's beliefs down, it is the cowards of this world who see someone in a vulnerable position and don't feel compelled to help. Jesus himself, the greatest man to ever walk the face of this earth was never a member of any organized religion.Peace

Atheism ......... Negating the existence of God
Polytheism ..... Associating partners with The One True God
or worshipping someone/something other than The One True and Unique God.
Plus...
Those Monotheistic religions who misunderstand the characteristics of God .... those who believe God has a son, and that His Godhead is divided into three, God is Above All Needs.
And anyone and everyone who is not true and sincere with their Creator.
