That’s a good question. I would have to say after years of careful thoughts I would say Friend/Quaker. I have been reading Friends Journal, an excellent and thought provoking open magazine.
They are open-minded caring people, Amazingly embraceable. I had considered other religions and at one point considered going catholic when Pop John Paul was alive and making in roads with both the Jewish community and Catholics.
I've always stated that if I could find a religion that followed the Bible closer than the one I'm a member of now I'd switch in a heartbeat. I look and listen but still haven't found one. I believe if you base your religion on a specific source material (in my case, the Bible) then you should follow it completely.
Not silly interpretations that are proposed to be argumentative, but a comprehensive study that is pursued over a lifetime. If the whole "God" thing was just a myth and I had to pick another? I'd make up my own because it wouldn't matter.
I'd call it "The Church of the Sub-gender" where men congregate to worship women. That has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?
I was raised in a Baptist home in the South. However, once I grew up, I found myself leaning away from that faith. Now, I just consider myself to be spiritual without any organized religious affiliations.
That being said, if I had to pick a recognized faith, it would be Buddhism or Kabbalah. I like Buddhism because I can understand the concept of karma very well. I can see how negative actions produce negative consequences.
This would also be true for the positive acts and energy someone puts out into the world. Kabbalah interests me because of the mystical aspects. This faith sets forth steps of self improvement that can allow a practitioner to gain knowledge of himself and the universe.
It was not a multiple-choice question; accept this one or that one without question. Even superficial study reveals that the truths underneath the major religions are about the same. The “golden rule hidden in mysticism.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
