Besides being a Christian... What specific religion do you belong to?
And why do you prefer your religion over another amongst Christians?

Do you mean 'which specific denomination' do you belong to? Christianity is a religion itself; any groups within it are usually called denominations (such as Presbyterians, Anglicans, Catholics etc). But Christianity also covers broader 'streams' such as Eastern Orthodoxy, Russian Orthodoxy and so on.
Anyway, I go to a Baptist church, but not because I feel the Baptists are 'better' than any other denomination, but because I'm currently happiest there.

Just to add to the pedantry, the Orthodox Church is one, with branches in various places so it is incorrect to Eastern and Russian Orthodox as different denominations. As I understand it the Anglican Church still remained in communion with the Orthodox Church. Contrary to popular opinion the Catholic Church is relatively recent splitting away from the Orthodox in the 11th Century.

I am a Christian and I belong to the Christian religion the doctrines or teachings of which are laid down in the Holy Bible. Christians ought to follow the Holy Bible.
