I'm a Luciferian and partial Angelici.

I was raised Protestant Christian and I believe God exists, but I do not worship him and I believe that Lucifer was right to rebel.

I'm not a Satanist, and I do not believe that Lucifer and Satan are the same person, though I do believe that Satan is the Devil and that Lucifer is Hell's God, and that he will only punish those who deserve to suffer.

I do also, however, worship any and all other angels, both fallen and unfallen because my girlfriend is an Angelici. Though I feel most connected to the archangel Samael who is often closely related to Lucifer.

I wouldn't call it a religion. But it borders on it sence its almost become more obsession and practice than anything else. I think of creation, balance, choas and attempt to apply them in some way to everyday life. Some suggsed others fail as expected of sutch logic. In some respects it also gives me some way to see into the near future. The distent future is almost impossible to predict sence so many seneros are possible.

As for my reasoning. I geuss it would have to be that i find confert in knowing what might come next. Experinceing more if at all possible is really the main premise of it. Sence we can't experince everything at once. That would be foolish.

I'm Buddhist and I follow the eight fold path. Although, I'm a unique Buddhist who has read the Bible, Quran and Gita. My family raised me not to follow what other people tell me and to choose my own path. Upon arriving at college I got to see how different the world is from home. It's now my second year and I've met so many people from different religious backgrounds it's awesome. I follow Buddhism because I want to be able to see good in everyone and be able to express compassion to those who need it.

I am an Ahmadi Muslim and I believe that there is no God but Allah (One God in Arabic) and I believe that Muhammad, Jesus (Isa), Moses (Musa), Aaron (Harun), Joseph (Yusuf), Abraham (Ibrahim), Jonah (Yunus), Noah (Nuh), Jacob (Yakub), Ezekiel (Dhu'l-kifl), David (Dawud), John (Yahya), Confucius, Buddha, Krishna, Socrates, and 124,000 others, are ALL prophets sent down by the One God, Allah.

(May peace and blessings be upon all of them.) =)

I'm a Catholic. Well, not literally. I haven't take my Baptism. Which means I'm not really a Catholic. Although for the time being, I consider myself as one. Why am I following it? Uhm, that's because I believe in my Religion. There is no particular reason for why am I believing it. I was born from Catholic people. I'm not some kind of a very religious person, to be honest. Maybe that's because I was drawn to believe in Catholic, Jesus, and all the lessons I have obtained from my teacher and other people. To put it simply, I accept all the knowledge they stuff inside me and believe in them.

I'm LDS. I was born into it. Decided to keep following because it brings me peace and makes logical sense.

Buddhist...half because I was born into it and cuase it's jsut another fact of life, half because when you strip away the embellishments...it makes a frightening amount of sense.
