I just don't mind gays or people of an other colour or think that woman are lower than men. Are all religions so nasty? I don't want to convert or anything I just wanted to ask.

Ok I know you can't just tell me I just want to know if there is a religion in this world that treats gays, woman and everyone as equals.

I wasn't going to answer this as you have already had 30 odd answers but when i trawled through them I realised that few have actually answered the question you actually asked so here goes. All abrohamic religions ie Christianity Islam Judaism see homosexuality and many other current excepted norms as sin. They are all patriarchal male dominated religions that regard women as inferior (although they all deny this) and in this writers opinion have contributed more anguish and confusion to the world than almost any other single factor in human existence.
Only the religions of Hinduism and Buddhism do not discriminate in the way you ask. They also both have far more insight into the human condition and the esoteric side of existence, although popular Hindu culture has devalued some of the brilliant insights in their own religion by distorting the laws of ma-nu into the caste system. Still, this is not the fault of Hindu religion more the interpretation of it

Nobody can tell you, only you can. Spend some time looking at different religions. No, not all religions are nasty, there are just some people in each that are mean.

I was brought up a baptist! I find all religions hypocrytical! Although i would judge anyone for their beliefs i think that some religions are very judgmental.
also i found that the people who teach & preach tend to bend the rules to suit themselves! i reckon you're better off being yourself without becoming a part of any religious group! you sound like you've got your head screwed on.

You can't just pick and choose what you believe... seriously, how are you going to convince yourself of a religion from one day to the next?

Jesus treats them all the same, it's just some christians who don't.......
If you want to know what to believe, I'd say the one that's true. Ask god to show you which that is.

Try the Unitarian Church. It is a non-conformist protestant church which respects all individuals and teaches us to live a life that is open and without condemnation of others and tolerant of litrerally everybody.
