Missed out on the Cargo cult which worships prince phillip. It is a religion not a cult by the way, confusing?

You should do a list on Hinduism, and how it seems to compose of different beliefs systems. For example, the majority of Hindus of the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu describe themselves as Shivaites and the most militant of them even reject the term ‘Hindus’ for who they are. In Rajasthan, some so-called Hindus worship the sun and the moon, as opposed to the many idols. Some Hindus even worship just one deity, which would make them monotheistic. While for some Hindus, while they worship many deities, they believe in the existence of one deity who is the most supreme.

Might be funny to mention that the asatru movment in sweden since a little while back, has the right to perform burials and marriage rites.

Im actually thinking about joining their church or whatnot as a cultural thing.
Though i still am strictly atheistic.

Actually, I’ve heard of Jainism, Falun Gong, Asatru & Cao Dai even before I’ve seen this list. I consider Jainism as one of the world’s 11 major religions.

As a swede, I have to ask about the “Asatru”. Over here it’s called Asatro, meaning belief in the “Asar” (“Asar” being the plural of the name given to the gods belonging to this religion) Anyway, I just found it interesting because I must admit I had NO idea that there were people who actually practice it these days. I have to ask, if anyone knows, do these people use the traditional Gods (the leader being Odin, the others Tor, Freja, Loke, Frej, Balder among many others) or new-fangled ones? And are they based on the same myths as the traditional Asatro?
