KJ, if you answer that, my related question would be if you had chosen Christianity if you were born in an overwhelmingly Bhuddist or Muslim country?
cannot reveal God to anyone. Only God can do that, and there are many
people who live in overwhelmingly Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist faith countries
who meet God and turn towards Him in spite of what the world around
them are pushing to them. I got to weekly prayer meetings with people
who actually have done that, in some cases they lose family for it.

If you had to choose on religion (besides your own, if you have one), which would it be? For me, I think it's Buddhism. Seems like more of a nice philosophy of life than a set of rules.
What about you all?
The real question is ..........which religion is true.
Only an honest man will know the answer.

I believe you have made it clear already that you think you are the only honest man on this Forum. 😏
What would a real Christian ( St Francis of Assisi) ......say about this?

... in the case of Augustine Thompson’s Francis of Assisi: A New Biography (Cornell, 2012),... . All of us know something about St. Francis, but few of us know the truth. Father Thompson delivers it.http://www.crisismagazine.com/2012/the-francis-we-never-knew-surprising-revelations-about-the-man-from-assisi
.... In the course of putting to rest various myths about his subject, he tells us surprising truths: for instance, Francis expected his followers to work with their hands rather than to impose upon others by their begging. Francis was more incensed by dirty altar linens and chalices than mistreatment of the poor or breaches of the peace. And Francis, far from being a Deep Ecologist, “was emphatically not a vegetarian.”
“Everything that lives and moves will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything. But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it.” (Genesis 9:3, 4)
"The life of the flesh is in the blood … drain out the blood and cover it with earth … you must not eat the blood of any creature …” (Leviticus 17:10-14).
