Why? No really, why just newer ones? I figure any of them can be weird depending on perspective. Tradition might only make it seem less so.

I myself am part of a religion people may consider to be weird, so I'd like to get everyone's thoughts.
Please answer the following questions and add anything else you'd like.

1. What religions do you find to be strange?

I wouldn't say any of them are any stranger than the other, it depends on the perspective.

2. What religion (if any) do you conform to and why?

None, though I suppose by default, geographical location, and familial traditions, I have some Christian leanings. The family was Anglican at some point.

3. Do you believe that there is a true path?

Nope!

4. What is different from the religion in question one and your own religion?

Not sure how to answer this, since I don't really know much about more than one religion to really give a good comparison. I suppose the major difference between myself and some religions is that I'm immediately suspicious of anything claiming to be a holy book or word of god or any sort of life-time "how-to." I'm a gut feeling type, or might go for a well made argument.

5. Do you have any interest in learning about religions? Why or why not?

sure, in the sense of theology or myth study, but not as any sort of actual system of belief. I have the mind-set I have and if I happen to agree with a particular teaching, then I can agree with it, but that doesn't make me of that religion.
