Wat is ur religion?

I'm atheist but I take quite a bit from Eastern religions (mostly Buddhism and Jainism).

 

please let that not be ICP!!!!!!!!!!!1



christian, but i hate it so I consider myself atheist but I like BUddhist beliefs and ways too.

 

I'm a Sageist
My own unique brand of belief, not a specific religion. Having studied so many belief systems it's impossible to believe only one can be the ultimate truth.

I was baptised Christian at four months old, ironic really as it is incompatable with my beliefs. Well Jesus was cool, but the rest I can do with out.

Buddhism is cool, I like the ethics. It seems a little too ridgid and pesimistic for me though.

Paganism is my current calling, I love the connection with nature, freedom and general joy of life.

I'm also agnostic

 

up until i was fourteen i'd say i was a mother earth kinda girl....when we die we return to it and restore what it is that it has lost etc.


followed taoism for a bit too





now...im a christian..not specific yet but....im still only new

 

Jesus is returning soon. One of the signs of Christ return would be when the jewish people return to Israel.

 

actually religion unlike philosophy is based on more than a single belief. in fact, religion is based around seven key areas, practical and ritual pratises, experimental and emotional experiences, narrative and mythical stories, doctrinal and philosophical guide lines, ethical or legal beliefs, social institutions, and material existance.

true we cannot agrue with a belief, but it is the other areas of the religions practises that we can disagree with and even sometimes dislike. but i would like the thread to be used for its original purpose and that is i would like all of us to be able to explain our beliefs before we codemn the notion of that religion being plausible.

 

My religion is no religion. I take ideas from all religions.

 

Deeply spiritual, not particularly religious...


If I had to label myself I would say I am a Christian Taoist. I was baptised a Catholic, and have been influenced somewhat by Taoism, Buddhism, Hinduism and Wicca.

At the moment I've been spending the past few months meditating on existentialism and having many epiphanies.

 

malachi you confuse me, not that is a big deal, but what i think you blive in just doesnt make sense

 

who cares if it makes sense or not? i'm a very confusing/confused person.

sometimes it doesn't even make alot of sense to me, or maybe i just didn't explain it very well. tell me what exactly is it *you* think i believe in and maybe i can clear it up.

 

christianity is close-mindedness and taoism help ppl open their mind.

The rest i don't really care, its just culture.
yeah i don't think black&white but christianity and taoism just doesn't make sense, or maybe you're totally irational

 

I'm a Christian.

 

Personally I put more faith in the message than the theology of both 'religions'. Much of what Jesus is recorded to have said and done seems like the actions and words of someone who is enlightened. I think that only through some sort of enlightenment could someone completely human come to terms with being the completely divine Son of God.

I read somewhere once about a Buddhist student who discovered Christianity and later read the Book of John to his teacher, who then told him that what he just read was the essence of everything he had been trying to teach him.

It the message that counts I think, or maybe I'm just irrational.

 

haha nice, i was thinking that you were a christian "trying" to follow some eastern stuff.

 

Nice to know I now have your approval Antimatter235. I can now sleep at night.

 

ppl NEED my approval to be 100% right... Or else, where the world is going?
so yeah, you can be sure your beliefs are acceptable now

 

the world would be going not only to the dogs, but to the cats aswell

 

can future post please stick to the topic and also stop discussing the religions of others, this is not a forum to discuss the basis of religion and whether one religion is better than another.

Personally, i believe that all religions contain an element of truth, and so please i would only like to see positive threads about ones religion.

 

you just get more retarded everyday dont you.. god that site, even if its a joke, has no idea. for a start yhvh is the hebrew name of god- YodHehVehHeh, and its a nazi/kkk site. and..
