your best bet is finding people of said religion and ask them. most will be happy to talk about it

I recommend looking at as many as possible and forming your own ideas.

Set up your own religion, not enough people do that IMO
Although there was this one guy a good while back...

Odinism or Astruism is a good one. Beleif in the Norse mythology which spanned across Scnadanavia, some of Britain and down to part of France. http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionar...se%20Mythology is a good website.

I always had this feeling where I think that if you live your life well and try to be a good person then thats all that should matter...think I picked it up from reading The Last Battle. Good luck anyway, and take your time and explore so you know exactly what youre doing.

I have always like to learn about religion and the best way to do it is just pick a few and read up on them on the internet or in a book. I just had a quick look there and found this on the bbc website http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/ it tells you a wee bit about each religion. | |

Like most things requiring more than a modicum of serious thought, religion bores the pants off me. I respect your desires to open your mind and learn about them or follow them and observe yur quaint little traditions and all but please don't talk to me about it. | |

I say you should do some research of your own.
Go around to mosques and temples and check out your local library. | |
