    Atheism isn't a religion and why no option for "none" for those of us who don't admire any religions?

      Then you can send your weekly donations to:

      c/o Is It Normal
      The Internet

        One of the many advantages of being an atheist, apart from the fact that I know my brain is functioning, is that there's nowhere specific to make donations. What did you have in mind, anyway?

          10% of your weekly earnings.

            I need every 10% of my meagre earnings, but when I was earning big money I used to support a young girl in Africa via World Vision, until I found out they push a christian agenda through their otherwise very worthwhile programs.

            I copped a bit of shit on here a few months back when I wrote that the gifts I'd given my family members on that christian festival in December were one half donations to programs in poor countries. They didn't mind at all, they've all got too much stuff anyway.

            So have I, and I give a lot of stuff away to op shops and local groups: eg food for free/low cost kitchens, warm clothes for the winter to another group and I'm about to give a couple of tents I no longer use to a group for homeless people.

            Now I guess you'll be cross if your response was a joke and I've replied seriously

      "I don't give a shit" is apatheism.

    Hindu, Sikh, and Buddhism seem pretty cool from my limited knowledge on them. I don't really consider atheism as a religion, but agnosticism is better... Just my opinion

    My religion is "science". It has improved the world and revealed truth about creation and life.

            So better to give scientists another 100 years to figure it out than to believe the outrageous myths and falsehoods in religious scriptures.

      well put. science is closer to the concept of religion than atheism

    athiesm isn't a religion and to many people Buddhism isn't either as it focuses on philosophy and knowledge rather than faith or anything spiritual, it seems to be a grey area

    It's hard to pick one because although all religions have questionable aspects to them you can generally take some positive things from each

    I prefer Christianity because I see more room for love and hope than any other religion.

    I dont particularly admire any religion. I believe that religion causes more trouble than its worth.

    I don't really "admire" any of them. They cause more trouble than they can fix. Most of the time they're just fixing a problem they started anyway.

    I see what you're trying to do there by including atheism in the list. You must be Christian.

    Hinduism is pretty cool. But I'm sure there are things about the religion that I wouldn't agree with.
