I would enjoy hearing from a follower of Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda. This Puerto Rican guy claims to be the second coming of Jesus. He has a huge church of devoted followers, and lives in Florida on the millions they give him. He has been compared to a David Koresh or Jim Jones. When an article reported that he has a tattoo of "666", 30 of his followers rushed out that day to get their own 666 tattoos. This is one weird dude.
Or Baha'i. They stand for a lot of good things, like equality and caring for the poor, but they also slavishly follow the writing of their prophets.
The Church of all Worlds sounds fun. It mixes Heinlein's "Stranger in a Strange Land" with Hogwarts and basic paganism.
Any Hindus around? I've never learned much about that religion. Buddhism would be good - they say a lot of the people who follow the Buddha's teachings are atheist.
But yeah, we mostly discuss variants of xtianity because we're surrounded by it.
