Reasonable? In that case, it is an absolutely ridiculous question to ask a bunch of atheists. I thought you were going for "least annoying" or some such thing. If you are asking which I think is the most reasonable, then that is similar to asking which is worse to get stabbed with: a knife made of stainless steel, or regular steel.

You can also put your own one i only like this three religions
forgto: Hinduism
Answer: I neither like nor respect any religion,although I do like and respect some individuals within several religions.
Which do I find the least annoying? Buddhism,which is strictly a philosophy rather than a religion,although millions of Buddhist treat it as a religion

Needs more options... My favorite religion, the one I would pick if I was going to be religious, is Shinto-Animism. I don't know why but I have more respect for worshiping animals on the technicality that they, ya know... exist.

There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."

OK, if we are adding our own options mine would be a mix of Satanism and SugarDaddyism where I would be the SB, the Supreme Being. A.k.a. SD...

The religion I have the most respect for is
Jainism - the five principles of it are : pacifism
honesty : non materialism : celibacy : trust - they
will not harm any living thing and eschew the right of
self defence : a Jainist would rather die than harm any
other individual no matter what the circumstances - they are
vegetarians too as they cannot harm animals either - they do not
believe in owning possessions and abstain from sex notwithstanding
for the purpose of pro creation - they do not believe in lying or stealing
Do of course have metaphysical beliefs but do not proslelytize - if theirs was
the only religion I guarantee you that atheists would have nothing to worry about
The worst thing I can say about them is that they have a reverse swastika for a symbol
but as they pre date Third Reich by a magnitude of over four thousand years that is nothing
more than an unfortunate but entirely coincidental association with Fascism - but definitely a belief
system no non believer would have a problem with - end of - so unobtrusive most have never heard of it

To me the most reasonable religion is all of the dead ones since they are myths and it is well known that they are. As far as which religions are the least objectionable, well it's easier to say which are most objectionable. That would be the three main monotheistic religions (Christianity, Islam and Judaism) for the simple reason that they try to shove their shit down others throats.

Must be why there are barely any of them around. They sound like pansies.
