Eastern Orthodoxy, Mormonism, and Anabaptism. Yeah, I picked three!
 
Lets see. Jesus, Mary, Joseph and all the apostles were Jews. A great deal of what we believe is from the Old Testament, and the Celebration of the Mass has many parallels to the Jewish tradition. This one is a Slam dunk. Mazel Tov!
 
Wicca. My patron is St. Francis so the magical/natural bent kind of gets to me.
 
I’ve always found Hinduism to be intruiging and “cool”
 
Hm, let’s see, I’ve always had an appreciation for Hinduism (apart from the caste system), Daoism, and Mahayana Buddhism (particularly the more “devotional” traditions like "Pure Land Buddhism) and, of course, there are many religions that fall under the Pagan umbrella that aren’t my own that I’d join if I haven’t already found my path, but those don’t count.

Oh, and (Haitian) Vodou, which may or may not be part of Paganism, depends who you ask.
 
I have a soft spot for Judaism since Christ and his mother were Jews.

Show off 😛

Just kidding.

For me, the question is kinda like “What is your favorite thing to breathe besides air?” The only thing I can think of is “The Force” from Star Wars, whatever religion that was. 🤷 The Jedi are just cool. Yoda never lost his peace.

Haha, that’s an awesome answer!

As for me, my first, immediate response was Mormonism. After that, atheism. But neither of those are options…
 
None of the above, because it would be a total waste of time. There is too much to learn about Christianity.

Please do not consider Mormonism----they consider the Trinity to be three DISTINCT beings—among other heresies. They believe God was at one time a MAN.:eek::confused:
 
BUDDHISM in this poll at least.
You neglected to include Paganism in the possible responses XD
 
The fullness of truth and grace reside in the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church, need I be interested in anything else? It would take me several lifetimes to learn about the Catholic Church. I think I’ll stay with the Church. I want all the truth and not just part of it. I am greedy when it comes to Truth and Grace.
 
I’m interested in Native American beliefs. All of nature is sacred to them, as it should be with us. Sadly not much thought is given this. The earth has been lent to us by God.

God bless ❤️
 
Favorite religion? Umm is that like what’s my favorite man besides my husband? Oh how about my favorite child? I just don’t get it at all. Why would I have a favorite religion when I’m already practicing what I believe to be the best way to worship my Lord?

I mean the most interesting religion turn learn about? 🤷 It’s not telling you to convert, it’s saying something like…say you’re Hispanic, and you think the Irish culture is cool, or say you’re American but you think Mexico is a really nice place.

All other religions? So Judaism is inspired by Satan? I suggest you read what the CCC (paragraph 839) has to say about the Jews:

When she delves into her own mystery, the Church, the People of God in the New Covenant, discovers her link with the Jewish People, “the first to hear the Word of God.” The Jewish faith, unlike other non-Christian religions, is already a response to God’s revelation in the Old Covenant. To the Jews “belong the sonship, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises; to them belong the patriarchs, and of their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ”, “for the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable.”

Yes, ALL other religions, which includes what you would call “Judaism” today. The modern Jews of today are not practicing the Judaism of the Bible. It is more of a thing that I would call “rabbinical Judaism”, and it is a man made religion inspired by Satan. Judaism ended (or became Christianity) when God Himself established His Church on earth. How could the Jewish religion continue being authentic when they have no sacrifice, no temple, etc? On top of that, they have rejected the Messiah. If you really believe that a religion that rejects its own God is anything other than inspired by Satan, you’ve got quite the issues to work out.

Exactly, I am not talking about Judaism, the religion of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I am talking about “Judaism”, which is not truly the Jewish religion at all, but a mockery of it and a satanic inspiration of it.

Pray for the conversion of the Jews if you love the Church.
