I believe God ceated everything. I don't believe Jesus ressurected. I do believe in karma and that everything happens for a reason. I don't believe in magical creatures, but I do believe in ghosts. Can you help me find out what most of this would fall under faithwise?

This is a really interesting situation.
But oddly, Islam fits your "requirements".
Muslims believe:
1. There is one God. He created everything.
2. Jesus is not the son of God, but a Prophet.
3. Muslims believe everything happens for a reason. (I'm not sure about Karma)
4. Muslims believe in a form called "Jinn". (Kind of like Ghosts)

If you don't believe in magical creatures then you are neither an Evolutionist or a Muslim.
If you believe in God then you are a Theist.
If you believe in Karma in the light of the other things that you revealed, then you are a sort of New Age Theist.
That's my best shot anyway.

From God's point of view there are only two religions. Jesus spoke of them as roads in Matthew chapter 7. So it really doesn't matter what you call your religion. If you are not on the narrow little road where people do not make up their own beliefs, and where you do not have lot's of room to wander about wherever you want to, then you are on the other road where most people are, even if they think that they are different. One road is the truth, and it's not a truth that we just make up ourselves, or where we choose whatever makes us feel good. The other road is everything else, incliding most people who think they are following Christ, but who are not doing the will of his father in heaven as verse 21 of that chapter shows.

your belief is one of millions of others that develop their own belief about basically the same principles found in the bible, that's how all these offshoot religions are formed, people like you take bits and pieces of a religion and take only the things you like about it then called it another religion. I personally don't care for god, but if I did, I think the most important thing about religion is that you have faith that there is something greater than ourselves, and to never put ourselves above anyone else, because there will always be something even greater any of us.

sounds like you have taken different beliefs out of different religions to form your own belief set. maybe theres no reason to try to find a religion that conforms to all your beliefs. or, if you wish to find a religion, know that you dont have to agree with everything. do some more research on different religions and find one that suits you, or accept your own beliefs and dont look for a name for your faith.

Your' beliefs are very general and non-specific.In my opinion,that is good,you're leaving room for many possibilities.For now,at least,you'd be best just referring to yourself as a Monotheist,a person who believes in one god.

Belief in God but not Jesus is as the Jewish believe. The other things just shows you have an open mind, enjoy it.
