im currently atheist, but i want an interesting, perhaps somewhat random religion i can tell people about.

i was thinking perhaps pagan? im not really into that wicken, witches, mother earth stuff though.

any suggestions?

So what you're saying is that you lack any real conviction for your atheism, but you want an obscure religious belief to espouse how cool you are to anyone who asks you..... Is that about it?

Jesus loves you.

Buddhism

There have been several studies that show that over the course of many years Buddhists have been able to change the way their brains function.

We aren't talking about euphoria. This is a much deeper mind body connection and for that reason Buddhism remains the number one religion that can actually inhibit your well being.

*shrug* That's more or less why I study religion. It's facinating and it impresses stupid people.

same here. i find it funny how text in a book can make people think "God" is talking to them. that and how the most religious nuts are the people that don't even follow what their religion preaches.
