I prefer Buddhism. As it is a collection of pathways to god(hood), or Yogas.

Buddhism has its denominations as well. They are not always as benevolent.

I myself am not a fan of organized religion.

I do not have a problem with the moral teachings in "The Bible" in particular the New Testament, yet there is a lot of baggage that goes along with it that I have problems with.

Yes, there are a dizzying amount of contradictions in the bible. Some of them have been edited in newer texts to make it NOT as obvious.

Yet that doesn't mean I do not see value there.

I simply do not view it as the word of God. I view it as the word of Man.

As such I do not think I must believe every single thing that is in the text. This is especially true because I own so many different bibles and firsthand know they are often quite different from each other.

I prefer a Bible thumper over an Atheism thumper.

I'd prefer to not have people forcefully trying to say "I am right, and you are wrong" regardless of their ideology...

Yet if I had to choose I'd take the Bible thumper.
