Can you name a religion that does not require Belief or Faith?

This is not a trick question.

If you saw the movie "Godfather" you may remember what the priest asked just prior to baptizing the infant.

He asked the almost Godfather, "Do you believe in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit?".

If his reply would have been "No", the baptism would not have occurred and the poor child would have been God Fatherless.

I know of a religion in which the question of Belief/Faith is never asked, spoken about, or mentioned from the person's day of birth to the day of death.

The Faith/Belief question or concept is never mentioned in any religious service by the leader or by the people in the congregation.

Put on your thinking caps and name the religion.

(Again, this is not a trick question.)

Does the fact that me and my co-workers work as a unit make us Unitarians?? I wonder...

Getting close, evolving, but not quite there.

Unitarians adhere to strict monotheism, and maintain that Jesus was a great man and a prophet of God, perhaps even a supernatural being, but not God himself.[24] They believe Jesus did not claim to be God, and that his teachings did not suggest the existence of a triune God. Unitarians believe in the moral authority, but not necessarily the divinity of Jesus. Their theology is thus opposed to the trinitarian theology of other Christian denominations.

Unitarian Christology can be divided according to whether Jesus is believed to have had a pre-human existence. Both forms maintain that God is one being and one "person"—the one Jesus called "Father"—and that Jesus is the (or a) Son of God, but generally not God himself.[25]

Well, true except for the women you work with, as they don't have units.

How is a unit different from a nonit?
Do females have nonits? While males are un-its? unit-erested? Un-iversed? And who gives a shnonit anyway?
Danged hormones, honey. (danged AEngloish, green homey)

Considering (and this is no joke) that one of my co-workers had a sex change operation (from a he to a she), wouldn’t that make him, er I mean her a reformed Unitarian? Boggles the mind. :rolleyes:
