It depends on which one of those you want to believe in, because they are very different. Some people will tell you that Christianity is the only way and that any of those are evil. But what I suggest is studying the main facets of those and seeing what you agree with. Personally, I enjoy Buddhism and Taoism, they are close to pantheists religions(everything is God). But in the end, nobody can tell you exactly what's right for you. Research each of them, and others if you like, you'll find that many religions are similar and are bound by the same thread of God. Let us know how it works out, good luck.

Seems like kind of an odd question, strange motivations. Can you just pick something that sounds exotic and instantly believe in it? I agree with Singularity, if you're serious about this then you're going to have to do some research and find something that makes sense to you. Read, talk to people of various religious flavors, attend their gatherings, keep an open mind. Maybe in the end you'll take different aspects that you like from each religion you study and form unique beliefs. |

Many people spend a great part of their life looking for something. There are so many faiths out there. It becomes a bewildering morass at times. The only way to really find the right thing is to search. And to spend a lot of quiet time listening to what your inner self likes and dislikes about what you are learning.
