Civil chat about religion.

[Shasta]

I am just curious to what your religious views are.
I am a Pagan. NOT a witch. I am a man of nature, allthough what i warship is probably similar to yours I just take into account that god didnt give us the earth, god gave us life and life and we are part of the earth, the earth is part of us. A natural cycle. I also believe that god doesnt neccisarly need to be a man. The spiritual immages we recieve of god are possibly given to us that way for us to under stand spirituality better.
I hope my post doesnt offend anyone. I just want to see how different or the same all of us are!

I was raised catholic but dont practice and religion. I do believe in god and heaven and hell and that we all will pay for our sins when its time. Just hope mine arent bad enough to get me upstairs.

I was raised Lutheran I however do not truly believe in 'a god' I have my beliefs that are apart of me from being raised, my logical side however tells me something different ;)

I am a professing/practicing christian and believe in one and only one God who came to earth in the form of man (Jesus) to be the sacrifice for all mans sins. Not hung up on religion though I attend church because I enjoy it. I am not perfect and know it. Believe relative truth is a crutch though I respect peoples rights to believe in it. Believe the bible is the inerrent word of God though I cant prove it. Have faith that in the end that I will have lost nothing should I have been wrong about it all, though I dont expect I am.

Peace,
MWM

im not really an atheist as i believe its possible that a godlike creature may have created life on earth. i think we as humans are unable to comprehend the immensity of our universe let alone its creation. i have my different theories, but i do not believe in religion, or do i feel the need to worship god in a church. i think "God" is a creature or being of some sort, just highly advance, if there is one. i dont believe that jesus arose, or that the bible was written by true apostles

Intellect and logic often are at odds with faith and belief. But don't confuse faith and belief with religon. A man of faith knows his destination, where as a man of religon only knows dogma and ritual.

great replies brothers. I sometimes believe that things happen for a reason because I can see something happen of little consequence and than later somehing happening that if this first thing never happened happend Id be screwed or vice versa. i think that the better yo understand what the human mind is capable of and what the universe around us is capable of you can achieve soooo much!
