Basically, if you could wave a "magic wand" and take any one religion and suddenly make it actually be true, which one would you choose and why?

Oh, no! Can I just kill myself instead?
OK, Bokononism.

Any of the Eastern religions would do fine. Hinduism, Buddhism, Taosim. They are all beautiful religions that truly do teach peace and acceptance. It was no suprise to me after traveling to several parts of Asia that countries with these as native religions are inhabited by some of the kindest people you could ever meet.

An Atheist would not believe no matter what kind of wand you waved,
but an Agnostic is an unbeliever until you can prove something to them...then they will believe.

Besides Buddhism, Hinduism.

Atheists don't believe in magic wands. There's no evidence.

Asatru.
Because it is more of an ancestor worship. Yes, they have gods, but at one point those gods were just mortals. They excelled in something or other and became gods.
That is a really crappy explanation, but if you ever have a Heathen explain it to you it seems very plausible.

I don't have to wave any "magic wands"... most consider Buddhism (which I am) to be essentially atheist and it makes the most logical sense to me... why not?

Wow. The thought of a supernatural deity that intervened in people's lives. Who controlled who lived and who died. Who prospered and who languished. And then judged people on how well they followed a confusing old book- banishing those who didn't do it perfectly to eternal suffering?
that's about the scariest thing I ever heard.
Thank god it's not true.

Scientology basically as a results of fact it may be freaking hilarious and including to what Orac mentioned, "Buddhism? does no longer that require being reincarnated as a cockroach?" it relatively is Hinduism and reincarnation...and it has no longer something to do with Buddhism

If I had that ability I'd just make up a religion on the spot.

Coin-toss between Khemeticism or Asatru.
