1) There isn't really a best, as it's a personal choice
2) There are a couple contenders- anything that uses it's faith to harm people, like oh, say burning them at the stake
3)I'm a practicing Pagan of over 10 years
4)I might look into Shinto. Or Buddhism, though that's more of a philosophy than a faith per se
5) Definitely Pagans, what other faith encourages you to dance naked around a fire as part of the ritual?
6) Again Paganism I think. Some of the Ceremonial rites are deeply moving. One who's never experienced cant imagine

I am spiritual, not religious, so I do not belong to any specific religion. I do agree with the good qualities of various religions.
1) I don't believe any one religion is better than the rest. It should not be a popularity contest.
2) I think it is best not to judge what is wrong with other religions, but to look for common good qualities it shares with your own religion/beliefs.
3) I think a religion telling you you have to be part of their religion to be a true believer is wrong. Sure church/temple/etc. are places of God/Allah/etc. I know some religions don't come right out and say it, but they strongly imply you can only truly worship if you attend the church/temple/etc. Can not God/Allah see all and hear and know your worship no matter where you are?
4)The only religion I would ever truly considered joining completely would be my soulmate's.
5) I would take an educated guess and say the most fun and enjoyable religions are the ones that are not so engrossed in rituals and rules.
6) Taking another educated guess I would say the most serious and powerful ones are the ones that are ones that power war and conversion of 'non-believers'. Look at history and we see many examples of the two of these elements combined. Of the Christian denominations the Roman Catholic church is the most powerful.

None.
1. Buddhism
2. Currently I dislike Christianity because of the browbeating. I didn't say Islam because I feel that a few have hijiacked the religion, giving it a bad name. It's like judging Christianity based on Jim Jones. That being said, overall, I think Christianity is too pushy.
3. None
4. Buddhism
5. I never think about religion being fun. I guess Buddhism.
6. Science, but that's not a religion. Buddhism.
BTW, Colson will probably join those getting punished because he is looking forward to ENJOYING their suffering, which I don't think is very Christian.

I belong to the Christian belief.
As to the "best" - such is redundant. I wouldn't be part of something if I thought it to be the "worst".
As to the "worst" - anything thing that does not bring one to God thru His Son, Jesus.
I take it by the comment "do you follow" - you are asking if I live my belief? If so, 'yes', I follow and live my belief.
Having lived a heathen life all my life before being a Christian - the only thought that I have would be that I would more than likely be living the life I did prior to knowledge of God. Such seems totally unthinkable now - but had I never found the relationship that I have now with God - I more than likely never would have changed.
I have a "fun and enjoyable" life now - so clear to know what my choice is there.
"Most serious and powerful" - considering the choice that I have made - the answer would appear to be clear, Christianity. One is not going to follow anything 'foolish and weak' if they know that they can be in relationship with the Creator of all the heavens and earth.
"I'm all in favor of keeping dangerous weapons out of the hands of fools. Let's start with typewriters."

5. could be all of them
6. all have power when used by the original means.
I know my answers are vague, but I really believe any religion has the potential to be the best religion. It's in the eyes of the beholder.

I have my own religion.
I try not to judge others on theirs
I am a leader
I would never follow another religion
Mine in my opinion is the most fun/enjoyable/serious/most powerful because I believe in it.

1) Catholic
2) Don't think they are the worst just that they are pagans
3)Our Lord Jesus Christ
4)Yes, It is the one true faith
5)The most enjoyable part of my faith is the Eucharist.- "He who eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood abides in Me, and I in him." [John 6:56] The Catholic Church teaches that the Eucharist, even though it still appears as bread and wine after consecration, is truly the Real Presence of Christ - His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. (Council of Trent, 13th Session)
6) The most powerful is Confession,John 3:16...
For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. [John 3:16, RSV]
This verse is a concise yet beautiful statement of the Gospel message. God so loves us that He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the Cross at the hands of sinful men in order to save us from hell (Romans 5:6-11). Our salvation is a free gift from God purchased by Christ. We cannot earn heaven least we boast (Ephesians 2:8). We are saved through Christ by believing in Christ. But what is "believing?"
Now John 3:16 is not a complete expression of the doctrine of salvation. We must understand it in the context and fullness of revelation. Only twenty verses later, it is also written:
He who believes (pisteuon) in the Son has eternal life; he who does not obey (apeithon) the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God rests upon him. [John 3:36]

Ough dear ough dear. Here it comes again. Why do you ask those questions? If you are not happy with your own, then change it!! If you think other people are wrong by choosing something which is not the same like yours, you can not change them any way.
In my opinion, such questions in public are impolite tho. Myobb I would say.
