I copied and pasted the following...Mostly because it was hard to put it into words for me....But this is my exact reasons for believing what I believe
Why should anyone trust in Christianity over Islam, Buddhism, Mormonism, or anything else? It is because there are absolute truths, because only in Christianity is there accurate fulfilled prophecies of a coming Messiah. Only in Christianity do we have the extremely accurate transmission of the eyewitness documents (gospels) so we can trust what was originally written. Only in Christianity do we have the person of Christ who claimed to be God, performed many miracles to prove His claim of divinity, who died and rose from the dead, and who said that He alone was the way the truth and the life (John 14:6). All this adds to the legitimacy and credibility of Christianity above all other religions -- all based on the person of Jesus. If follows that if it is all true about what Jesus said and did, then all other religions are false because Jesus said that He alone was the way, the truth, and the life and that no one comes to the Father except through Him (John 14:6). It could not be that Jesus is the only way and truth and other religions also be the truth.
Either Jesus is true and all other religions are false or other religions are true and Jesus is false. There are no other options. I choose to follow the risen Lord Jesus.

I'm one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I believe in it because what I am taught answers my questions about life, solves my problems and keeps me from many bad things. I see the good results when people accept what we teach from the Bible.
What makes my religion? Well, if a person is one of Jehovah's Witnesses, they tell others about Jehovah and his ways. What he has done, what he will do and why it is good to serve him.

I am a muslim. I follow islam. I believe in it because it is hard to deny the truth. In the muslim holy text of the Qur'an, there are so many miraculous discoveries and explanations. the prophet muhammad was not able to read or write and the quran is written in pure perfection. look up "miracles of the quran" on google or somehting to see what im talking baout.....its amazing. the religion preaches the importance of only one GOD, to belive in all prohpehts who spread the word of god from prohpeht ABraham, moses, jesus, and lastly muhammad (peace be on all of them), and cleanliness.....it is the most beautiful religion as well as the most logical.

I am Wiccan. I believe that "God" is both male and female, Wicca is also a very earth based religion. I feel very strongly connected to the Divine Feminine.

My religion is the faith of the Church of the Subgenius. I believe in it because I've never been like everyone else. Non-Comformity and thinking for yourself makes my religion. And "Bob". And sending "Bob" $30.

I am a firm believer in Islam. I believe in Islam because it is simply a way of life. Islam teaches me how to live peacefully and leaves no room for questions or suspicions in my mind.
In the Arabic language, Islam means submission to only one God...
Muslims believe in One, Unique, Incomparable God; in the Angels created by Him; in the prophets through whom His revelations were brought to mankind; in the Day of Judgment and individual accountability for actions; in God's complete authority over human destiny and in life after death. Muslims believe in a chain of prophets starting with Adam and including Noah, Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Job, Moses, Aaron, David, Solomon, Elias, Jonah, John the Baptist, and Jesus, peace be upon them. But God's final message to man, a reconfirmation of the eternal message and a summing-up of all that has gone before was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad through Gabriel.
