Please state yes of no if you follow a religion. I've seen many Christians cliam that they are not a religion, I wondered what other Christians and other faiths feel about their religions.
So please state what religion you are. i.e Jew, Muslim, Christian, Hindu, Pagan etc...
And also state whether or not you believe it is a religion.

I would be classified Christian.
I believe it can become a religious thing if you let it become that. I think the important thing is have a relationship with God. There are a lot of things people doe religiously. Honestly even me. I follow college football and the Ohio State Buckeyes religiously. But I realize that it has no bearing on my standing with God. By the same token, people can go to church and take part in the activites religiously, pray, even read the Bible and not allow it to change them in any way. And thats true with any religion from Christianity to Buddhism to Muslim to whatever. If it is not changing you for the better, its null and void.

I follow Judaism, both as a religion and as a philosophy; however, I would have to say that it is not the only philosophy or religion that I follow, as I feel it is compatible with any number of others. However, I self-identify as a Jew.

Not me! Religion is man's way of reaching up to God and trying to put things right by their works. Christianity is God bringing salvation down to man and making things right. Thankfully, Christ didn't come to establish a "religion" but rather to show man the way back to God. "Religion" is man made. Christianity is God given

i am a Christian-i'm a follower of Christ, not a religion. religion is man's attempt to work his way to God; to be a Christian is to take hold of the hand that God is reaching toward man and developing a relationship with Christ. it's not about rules, rituals, sacraments,dogma, and fear of hell-it's about love, Christ's example, and salvation thru grace by faith

No, but then after a brief flirtation with the toothfairy, I stopped believing.
