What religion am I?

Pain does not exclude benevolence.

"If you describe a person in authority as benevolent, you mean that they are kind and fair." is a description of benevolence.

Seems to me that an Entity that first gives a species life allowing it to exist is kind and that the same Entity is being fair by allowing the species to die so that another species might live in its place.

Well we have different views of kindness.

I will discribe my beliefs and tell me if this sounds like any religion that sounds familair to you.
I believe that there are many gods, with one at the head leading (its the only way evolution makes sense in my oppinion)
I believe that humanity is chosen race, to have come this far and not died, I'd say thats an acomplishment.
I believe that nature is not venerable, that it is cruel and barbaric, but its balance is nessecary.
I believe that violence is a necessecary, being a dead pascifist won't earn you any rewards in my belief.
I believe that relics are important, they help people experience the divine, any faiths relics can have an effect.
Does this sound like anything?
I tried to do this before, but it doesn't really work that way.

It took me a while to discover that because religion is such a spiritual, and therefore, personal thing, no label will ever completely fit anyone's beliefs. Every person is different, and therefore, every belief, every perspective, every opinion, is different. So I just realized that I don't need to put a label on my belief, as that would be like putting a label on myself. Yes, it makes things easier to tell people who don't really want to talk about it, but are just making small talk. But it depersonalizes something that is very important to who you are. You'll find that even people within the same religion will have different perspectives on the same things. That's why there are so many different branches of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, etc. And there will still be differences within those branches, as each person is their own leaf of the same tree.

Everyone has their own spiritual path. And while you may encounter people who, for a time, will share that path with you, they have likely taken a different path to get there, and will likely take a different path in the future.
