    What are your thoughts on religion, what you beleive etc? Do you beleive in one god, many, or none at all?

    Personally, I don't beleive in the existance of a god, or the absence of one.

    I think God rules. He's death, He is life force, He is basically the cause of everything else.

    1+1=2 because there is God.

    Thank you.

    i take bits and pieces from every religion, what makes sense to me, my experience, thoughts, and life.

    as far as God, well i dont KNOW for sure, but i know einstein believed in some sort of higher being, and you cant fuck with einstein. maybe someday some strange occurence will happen, and it will be too weird to pass of as coincedence, who knows...

    but i also think theres god in all of us, spirit-that-moves-through-all-things, the divine in everything, the creator and the destroyer...

    I believe there is a GOD. I believe HIS Son's name was/is Jesus.

    I believe God is everywhere. I believe HE works through others to relay HIS messages.

    I believe my life has been so much more richer because I have GOD in my life. HE is in my family's life. HE has blessed us so many times, too many to count, too many to share.

    I make mistakes. I will fall and I will get back up again. I know this is going to happen. Knowing that I have GOD in my life I will be able to learn from the mistakes I have made and hopefully not repeat them.

    I am not perfect. I have never claimed to be perfect. I believe Jesus died on the Cross to save me. I believe as long as I have HIM in my life I will live a better life. I will be here to love those around me, hopefully bring peace and joy into their lives. I just know I would never want to bring any pain.

    I believe in life, and I believe in me, and that's about it. I do think there is a very good chance that there could be a god, but I doubt he really gives a shit what I do.

    I believe in luck, or destiny, or fate, or something. There is some force or some being out there, but I'm just going to meet it when I get there.

    No idea what a person would call this thinking. No idea if it even makes any kind of sense except for in my own brain. To be honest, I don't think about it much at all.

    I cannot believe in something that has so many holes in it. Have you ever read the bible? I have, the contradictions and lies are unbelievable. Did you know that Joseph finding out that Mary was pregnant came to him a dream? And he was the only one who saw that dream? coughbullshitcoughcough....and thats just the first 5 or so pages people.



    I dont pray to anyone, my self-esteem is not low enough to dedicate my life to some mythical creature. If I have problems, I take care of them myself or with the help of friends.

    This whole god thing is an idiotic pre-medieval hoax to keep people dumb, submissive and ignorant.

    Yeah.

    you really are, our minds are much more powerurful than we think they are, that shouldnt be scary though...
    we create our own worlds, and realities, infinite possibilities...

    again this should be in the philosophy forum..

    I'm a buddhist, I don't believe in god, and I also don't believe in reincarnation, or at least not in the I'm comming back as a 'nother person or a camel or something, and I dont believe in heaven.

    I apprecaite Buddhisms lack of dogma, its constant change, and its search for understanding. I believe nirvana is a sublime state of tollerance and acceptance, and I aprecaite the cultural heritage of buddhism.

    Buddha kept it real, and I dig it.

    What do you believe Jedi? I was asked a question and I answered it according to my beliefs. No one else has to like them nor do they have to agree with them. Either way this is who I am.
