I've been studying many religions for months now, and I've found not one that I am comfortable with.

My bare personal beliefs are as follows:

Reincarnation, when the soul learns enough it passes on, to what I can't say.
Either numerous individual entities as in Asatru or just aspects of one as in Wicca both seem plausible to me... I have a hard time believing in one single entity.
Practices of magick, divination,alchemy,psi etc. are accepted.
No "believe me or suffer" crap.

I realize this isn't much information to go by, but any help would be nice. I'll answer any questions that could help you give a decent suggestion. Bluntly... I'll help you help me. Many thanks in advance.

Many thanks, nocturne....

Don't get me wrong... but you have a funny problem. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/haha.gif) WHY in the name of some unknown god do you Need a religion? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mf_popeanim.gif) Believe in You. Isn't that enough? If not, then why not continue After Knowing Thy Self to reason out what you want to believe in? I suggest You go on an Adventure Inside! There You Will find what you seek, Then you Will know what name you want to give to that what you want to believe. But fine, if you sincerely wish to put yourself in a box for safekeeping for a while. Do it. But the dogmas of any systemized spiritual practice will only take you for some short journeys. There is No way of avoiding your inner self. I didn't actually want to give any advice to you. But I couldn't resist: if you try to escape what comes up from inside by external spiritualistic materialism, you will take a step backwards. But actually that is ok too... so what I really want to say to you is this: Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law. Love is the law, love under will.

Be brave and follow your Hearts desire. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rule.gif)

Agreed. I'm a mix of christian, buddhist, hindu, and pagan. I ended up calling my "religion" simply as Spiritualist and make my own rules and path of believes. Why do we NEED a religion anyway? We can believe in anything we want as long it serve our needs and purposes.
