you don't have to do anything to become religious.  just have faith in whatever beliefs you choose.

Start your own religion, preach often and loudly, especially throughout the Bible Belt and the Southwest, and you'll attract some followers. But you can't claim to be the Son of God, that's already taken and you'll sound like a tool. Your religion should have a mix of Western religion with Eastern philosophy and you'll attract the best of both worlds.

Find a Spirit filled church. One that uses the Holy Bible (only) and one that urges relationship and not "religion."\n\nReligion is how man tries to reach God/Jesus.\n\nRelationship is how God reaches us through Jesus Christ.\n\nGrace to you and God Bless...

Its not about religion , its about accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal saviour and having a deeper relatioship with HIM everyday. Read Romans 10:9-10. That is what matters.

Religion is all about controlling people.\nIf you have reached the stage where you have realised that religion is retricting you, then its time to drop religion, and become an independent spiritual person. Then you make your own rules. There is no need to be a sheep all your life.

Start with what Jesus said was the Greatest Commandment and learn to love God with all your heart.\nNext work on the 2nd greatest, to love others as yourself.  If you do that, you will have friends, both Christian and pre-Christian.\nLast, work on the Great Commission (which comes after the Greatest Commandment).  If you do that, you will share Jesus with others.

Keep an open mind and learn from other religions.  if you really listen, you'll hear a lot of similarities.  if it is uncomfortable, stay away from the topic of religion and stick to the things that made you friends in the first place.  i think people will go to heaven if they are good and hell if they are not. no matter what philosophy you follow, there is always a basic belief or faith or values that keep you "good", regardless of religion.

It's not about choosing a religion first. It is about coming to know God by seeking him and asking him who he is--and then he leads you to the truth about himself.\n\nSo, that is what I would recommend: Seek to know God. Pray, ask him for faith, ask him to bless you with the knowledge of who he is. Keep your eyes open, and pay attention to where he guides you.\n\nSeeking God is not a game. It is the entire purpose of our life on earth. Just because some humans have misunderstood God and have created religions that attempt to point people in the wrong direction does not mean that it is God who created a game. it is actually people who created the game. God doesn't play games with human souls.\n\nBest to you in your search for the true, living God.

Don't worry about it.  Live a good life and things will take care of themselves.\n\nMy religion says that all the good people of the earth will have a place in Paradise.  So-----just be a good person.

Do not let these religious fanatics get you down.\nYou're a child of God....nobody gets special rights to this...not even Baptists.\nMove on with your life. Make friends. Love your neighbors. Adopt children. \nWhen it's all said and done, you will have lived a good life and loved many.\nThat's all that matters. The other stuff is just that...stuff born out of fear.\nYou're better than that.

I would say similar things of my beliefs that you have said, but I have never really felt that I needed to belong to a religion.  These are your beliefs - great.  Why label it?  Why not be free to decipher the mysteries of life for yourself without having a leader to tell you what you should do or what not?\n\nThis is so often my question.  We are supposed to be good people - no problem.  We are supposed to emulate a spiritually high rated ancestor, as it were - ok, I can see how that might help the quest.  We are supposed to allow a group of "religious leaders" to tell us how we should vote and live and give?  I don't think so.  \n\nReligion can be helpful for some people - don't get me wrong - but you have already come so far as to develop the tenets of your own personal religious philosophy or statement - why now look for a group?  You can live the ordinary life in a non-ordinary way and learn and see things on the road less travelled that others don't often see.  I think we should all just call ourselves Religiously Unaffiliated.\n\nPeace!\n\nPS - If you really want a church or a group, you might try the Universal Life Church (http://www.ulc.net/) or Unitarian Universalists.  Faith.com has a ton of info - I am sure you could find something of interest there.\n\nThe next day:\nDude, you gotta check this out:  http://www.beliefnet.com/story/76/story_7665_1.html\n\nIt's the Belief-o-matic - a quiz that will tell you how your answers compare to the world relgions.  It was fun and interesting.\n\nPeace!
