My knee jerk answer is Greek mythology, but that would come would us being subservient to beings who generally don't seem to care whether we live or die unless we bring them merit

so nothing would change

Other than that I'm a fan of reincarnation/Buddhism from what little I know of it

The Satanic Temple never seemed too bad. Their beliefs are ok. I'd probably go with that one since they don't actually believe in some supernatural being ruling all. Their 7 tenets sound pretty okay to follow.

Unitarian Universalist - they're REALLY flexible in their thinking, welcome pretty much everyone. UU people are alright by me, and I can't stand organized religion.

Probably one of the polytheistic religions, having a pantheon of gods or spirits is way cooler than some singular supreme being. Extra points if the gods are just people who did really cool shit and attained divinity.

LaVeyan Satanism. You get to hang out at weird parties with Ming the Merciless and his celebrity friends.

For a moment I thought you meant correcting the actual religion as experienced in the world by people, not the beliefs/gods being real.

Depends. Which religion will bring about the end of the world the soonest?

Truthfully I prefer not to give beings great power over me, which is a lot of religions, even if benevolent. Not sure what I'd really pick

Tabletop RPG gods just because they give tangible divine powers to their priests and oracles(prophets).

Shintoism or Sikhism. Especially the latter.
Sikhs are the least fallible I've known in all my travels.

Their beliefs are basically Objectivism without Ayn Rand. It's a demonstrably evil belief system.
