What rule did I break? He didn't have my beliefs listed, so I added it.

Just think if how Jesus were alive today how many people would reject him, especially the Christian types. They're usually (in my experience) rabidly conservative and hateful of random things and people so this random hippie dude travels around the country, doesn't get married or anything - just hangs out with his 12 best guy friends, preaching love for everyone and giving all your wealth to the poor. He'd be painted as some liberal Obama-drone. Kind of ironic.

I guess I get your point, but this really doesn't make sense to me.

Jesus and his message is a little bigger/broader than your definition IMO.

IMO... Religion is mans attempt to not feel so alone in a vast and unfathomable universe. It's a way to overcome an inherent inferiority complex and beat back the fear of death with an illogical fantasy of meaning when no actual meaning exists.
So, to answer the OP... U - None

Buddhism
Closest thing to empirically based spirituality on the list.
None should draw their moral philosophy from any of the above, though.

Depends on the conquering empire of that region. Through the atheist Constantine and the Roman Empire, much of Europe was conquered under the Christian religion. In the Middle East and North Africa Islam became the religion of choice as that was the conquering religion and it held off the invading Christian armies for centuries. Before these 2 powerful political spheres of influence there were smaller religions that pre date both of these ideas. Most of these were polytheists and were eventually replaced by monotheists since an all powerful God seems even more hip. Eventually the majority of Europe and North America will be atheist along with China and Russia as ideas spread across the internet and people are exposed to more intelligent, logical thought. No longer simply just believing whatever their parents believed who simply believed what their parents believed never questioning or learning why.
Please explain to me how you come to intelligent, logical conclusions when you are using a mind that was created by a blind and mindless process? Mindless things cannot produce minds.
Would you trust the computer you are on if it was made by a blind and mindless process?

Or how to explain how mechanisms infinitely more complex than any supercomputer(namely the brain) got here.

If there's no actual meaning, you'd be ill-equipped to discover that.

Church of the Diddled Clitoris. Why? WHY, you ask?

I'm really into the Nation of Islam. That's only because I set a really bad example and I do so because I'm white and therefore inherently evil.
