Ana majnoon...that's the most dishonest answer I've read. All you need is a basket and you'll be a hot air balloon.

That's a tough one!
There are so many religions I know very little about. I hear smatterings of information about Hinduism that gives me the shivers; I was more in contact with Muslims when I lived in Spain, and while I met some fine people among them, I really disliked their religion. But I think the religions that upset me most are the ones that distort Christianity and then claim to be from the Bible, such as Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormonism. The one that strikes the most negative cord in me emotionally is Jehovah's Witnesses. Not because it is the worst, but I believe they prevent a lot of people from actually embracing Christ as Saviour. If I lived in India I would surely say Hinduism; if I lived in North Africa I would say Islam.
(Have you guessed I am writing from the point of view of a convinced Christian?
At first I thought Rachel Rachel was trying to be funny, but I think she is quite serious. The fact that the word "Baptist" comes up in the title John the Baptist, has absolutely nothing to do with Baptists. I am a Baptist preacher myself, and there are some Baptists that I would think twice before sitting at the table with them! "John the Baptist" means "John the Baptizer". We can take a lot of terms from the Bible to pick as a name for a church: "Baptist", "Pentecost", "Christian" "Brethren" etc. Whatever name one gives to a movement, does not at all guarantee that movement being Biblical.
- I know this last part has nothing to do with your question, but I just had to respond to Rachel's comment.
EDIT:
It is refreshing to see most evaluations of answers are thumbs up. I don't like giving the idea of a thumbs down just because we don't agree with an answer. (No, I am not responsible for any of the thumbs down Rachel got).

Jail, Muslims and America, and Straight Man in a Gay World. I thought these episodes especially took very sincere and well-meaning participants to a new level of consciousness about themselves and their world. Not necessarily converting the Christian and making the straight man want to move to the Castro, but just promoting a greater sense of tolerance and respect for others. And the Jail episode was just an astounding revelation about our criminal justice and punishment system. All hail the genius of Morgan Spurlock and 30 Days (and props to FX for picking up this intelligent and insightful series)!!!

Irena, your thoughts betray you. It is the peanut butter religion you so much need to extinguish between 2 pieces of bread. Go forth & seek that glory & get rid of Q while you are at it.

More a religious attitude than a religion.
The Extreme element of any faith that do not care of the damage their bigotry does to the rest of their faith's reputation OR the rest of the community.
The selfish attitude/expectation that everyone HAS to conform to their particular bias.

Christianity- the reasons just go on and on!
Don't get me wrong, I'll tolerate a Christian INDIVIDUAL as long as they don't start sh*t with me, but I said tolerate, I never said I had to LIKE the religion.

i respect people from all religions
it's not the religion i have a problem with , it's just the way people behave at times which has more to do with the person than with the religion

I was going to say scientology but I only consider that a money-making scam.
Pick any doomsday cult instead.
