If you were not your current religion, what would you be?

[Otherright]

Too much of a slacker to feel I deserve the right to call myself a Buddhist. If I call myself any religion, I want to be able to own it. Buddhism is more like a pastime.

Like I've said, "Hey I never said I was a good Buddhist." In fact, I may be more Taoist than anything, but... either way. I'm more Dharmic than not.

 

[Katzpur]

If I were to leave Mormonism (not much chance of that, by the way) but were to remain a Christian, I'd probably go with either Eastern Orthodoxy or Roman Catholicism. I'd have to look into both of them a little more before making my decision. If I were to leave Christianity altogether, I'd join the Baha'i Faith.

 

[Me Myself]

If I didn´t felt faith and a lot of things that have happened to me that make me to beleive in supernatural, I would be atheist

Now I know atheism is no religion, but the only "religion" but I am not very religious, so for me it would be if I didn´t belief in the supernatural, I could see atheism as being obvious.

Hence I tend to symphatize with them in a lot of debate points. Mostly when people think God existence is "obvious" (when according to logic, it doesn´t need to be)

 

[Gaura Priya]

If I wasn't a Gaudiya Vaishnava... I would be a Nimbarki Vaishnava.



If I wasn't a Vaishnava, I would be an Arya Samaji, or part of the Arya Samaj religion.

 

[no-body]

I find any religion to be too constraining for me but some of my favorites:

Sufism
Unitarians
Zen Buddhism

I have a great love of Sufist philosophy but ultimately cannot reconcile myself to any part of Islam. Unitarianism is the most appealing type of Christianity out there. I would probably end up joining Zen Buddhism though if I truly aligned myself with any religion.

 

[Dena]

I imagine I'd probably be a non-religious agnostic of some sort.

 

[9Westy9]

Hard to say. There are many religions, beliefs and philosophies in the world. If I knew enough of them I'd be able to tell you confidently. If I had to choose though I'd probably say Shinto(ism)

 

[murtaad]

Ideally, probably either a Buddhist or Jewish.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

It's impossible for me to say, as I'd have to be a fundamentally different person to be any religion.

 

[Andal]

If I wasn't Hindu I'd be Buddhist.

 

[Nisou Kitsune]

If I was not Pagan, I would be a Sikh.

 

[Noaidi]

I would be into shamanism. The idea of having animal totems guiding me sounds great.

 

[GURSIKH]

If I was not Pagan, I would be a Sikh.

its good to hear .

Sikhi and Pagan seems different to me , you should share your knowledge about this .
