what do you love about your religion

[whereismynotecard]

Okay then. I'd personally rather just leave it at "I don't know," because I don't see that anyone is ever going to find any answer, and even if they do, no one would ever know that it's right... But if trying to figure stuff out is important to you, then you should keep doing it.

Many things....
That my religion includes all the aspects of life i.e. comprehensiveness of Islam. There is no that distinction between this world and the hereafter or between a worldly deed and religious deed. All our actions and deeds can be turned into worship if there is sincerity and that means if every action was accompanied by the intention of doing it for the sake of God only, it becomes worship and the person will be rewarded for it. Thus eating becomes worship, going to work, studying, playing with your kids, cooking, cleaning the house, going out with the friends and having sex with your wife or husband become worship, even sleep can be worship. This life is a farm for the hereafter, we sow here and will reap there.
Also there is nothing called religion stays at mosque or home only; religion involves all the different systems; political, social, economic, educational, cultural...etc. and this won't lead to create schizophrenic followers; inside the mosque they worship God and outside the mosque they worship ideologies, persons or desires, but it creates a Muslim with one belief, one feeling, one identity, one goal inside and outside the mosque.

This one thing I love about Islam.

Well, who isn't going to say that about their own religion?

Another hand here!

I have a similar stance as MoonWater, though we share very different beliefs.

i want to know what you love the most about your religion

Lots of days off from work and being able to drink wine every morning at Mass.

 

[Father Heathen]

Tsk... You cant die for your own sins... YouTube - Hell and Satan

No, but I can absolve them *allakazam*! Besides, as my own god I am the arbiter of my own vices and virtues.

Lots of days off from work without having a fitting religion and being able to drink wine whenever I want

Heh. Is it against the law to dress like a priest if your an atheist? If you are you're own god can you be an atheist?

What do you love about your religion?

Everything :yes:

 

[Nessa]

I believe that subscribing to a predetermined belief system retards your ability to discern the truth. Therefore my lack of a belief structure enhances my ability to find the truth.

What about the soul-crushing guilt?... bet ya don't get that from ... ummm... wait a second.... never mind.

 

[tariqkhwaja]

Assalamualaikum.

I love my religion because it establishes an active relationship through two-way communion between me and my Creator.

 

[Azakel]

Well, who isn't going to say that about their own religion?

Not everyone will.

It's correct; and it doesn't make me get up on Sunday mornings.

When a theist says there religion is correct you need prof. What makes yours correct?


What I love about it. It's correct and it doesn't make me get up on Sunday.

No judgement, no hell, no sin. You get the point.

That too.

 

[Ciarin]

It doesn't suck.

You know we wouldn't have a whole lot of holidays if it hadn't been for religions.

Sunday is a holiday because it is a Christian worship day. Saturday for Jews and Friday for Muslims.

Moreover, Christmas, Eid, Holy, and so many more.

Then way don't we celebrate all the Pagan holidays too?

P.S. There are a number of Holiday(days off) That have nothing to do with religion. We still would have a good number of them without religion(though I guess I'm speaking about in the U.S., I don't know much about this kind of stuff in other countries).

Yeah ... but the more the merrier. If everyone had been Atheist we would have been stuck with ... err ... Independence Day and a couple more.

Yeah Pagans should get some too. But I guess the government has to draw the line somewhere so it just takes the majority.

Greetings!

I'm a Baha'i because I love its:

• emphasis on unity, love, harmony, peace, and concord, and
• acceptance of other religions

And as icing on the cake, its scriptures praise and eagerly endorse music in general and singing in particular!

Best,

Bruce

Well, he did ask
Anyway, I'm up for the basic debate on the subject should you wish, probably in a different thread.
Actually I'm not much about proof; I'm about evidence.
