I'll start: Quakers (Society of Friends). Unprogrammed worship, sense of the meeting, 'I hope so', pacifism... I just think it's a really interesting moral/ethical standpoint.

ALL of them. I think Theology in general is an amazingly interesting topic. I'm always trying to learn more about some religion or another. But I have to admit I have a special interest in religions that are "outdated" (ancient beliefs) and/or those considered unorthodox. Right now I'm trying to understand Gnostic Christianity.

I have always been fascinated with a lot of the ancient religions, particularly that of the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians. I don't know a lot about Hinduism, but the more I learn, the more interesting it is.
I find most religions to be quite interesting.

I don't follow a religion, but there are several that are fascinating/interesting to me. Visits in Catholic churches always left me in awe. Huge decorative buildings, stunning archetecture, beautiful stained glass everywhere - it was lovely. But all that kneeling and confessing is a bit much.
Then there's Buddhism. One with the world, all life has worth. It's all friendship and happiness. But no steaks or tattoos. That's a bummer.

Well, I'm Eclectic, so I basically borrow from all the religions I find interesting to make a unique one of my own. Judaism and Paganism are two major factors, and Hinduism would be another I find quite interesting.

Snake handlers/poison drinkers.......while I think they are profoundly crazy for drinking arsenic in large doses (tested the chemical and that is what it turned out to be), I do find it amazing that they do not die, or even get sick as a result of doing so. It also is a level of extreme faith I do not have.

All religions are interesting and each one has a different view on life and the world we live in. Its interesting to see what so many people put their faith into (except saitanism... I just dont get that one lol).

I'm Catholic and I find the Amish to be quite interesting and the Muslims. For the Amish I'm interested in their simple lifestyle and for Islam I am interested in why they believe so and so. I always have questions for them.

Fascinating in what way? I have a horrified fascination with many religions. I have a sympathetic fascination with Buddhism.
