Well I live in america. my religion is a hard one to explain on a count of i dont have a name of it. i am currently working on it see i was looking for religions everywhere and couldn't find one that fit me but i am making one that i feel is my perfect way of connecting to God Hope u understand. its a way of beliveing that all prophets came of one God and that we are reancarnated. its not like i can spread what Gods word is because I am not a Prophet but i am planning to lift off something new to show the teachings of all the Prophets.

Bahai?? I don't know anything about them, but from my understanding (based on a friend of my sisters) they are similiar... atleast in the prophet thing.

Anyway, welcome and good luck with that!

Hi Thenewone, I hope I don't get your name confused with Theowne...

so... when you are not new anymore, let's say a year from now, will you change your name to TheOldGuy?

No i am not a Baha'i though there belifes are very similar to mine. i belive that you dont have to say obligatory prayers or pay money to a Baha'i place of you can't wear silk. i mean you can't wear silk. also there are other very wierd things in the kitab-i-aqdas that are a little different tho that is not my faith.

Unitarian Ba'hai?

I dunno.

Maybe neo-Manichianism of some sort? Though, I think they may have had dietary restrictions. Try Wikipedia.org, and look through their articles on religions, they're pretty good.

well im shootin for my own but i might build off others belifes if they fit me.

I actually used to be a Bahá'i (I didn't 'declare', so wouldn't have been considered a 'proper' Bahá'í by many Bahá'ís). The main problems I had was with obligatory prayers and inerrant texts, as well as the structure of the Bahá'í Faith, which I felt attempted to put a box around God. That was why I became a Unitarian (in the British sense, which is similar but not quite the same as in the American sense) and I realised that I had actually always been a Unitarian even though I didn't identify as one until about two years ago.

And yes, the test that morningstar has directed to you is always a bit of fun — I'd be interested to know what results come near to the top for you. Obviously take it with a pinch of salt though, since I have found a few problems with it.
