    I say religion is too restrictive. Spirituality, on the other hand is the experience beyond what the average person can handle. Making that experience into the average day is enlightenment.

    I don't do the whole jesus thing. It's a waste of a good sunday morning. [​IMG]

    religion isn't really necessary. Seems kinda for chumps who wanna believe that death isn't the end.

    Wanna know the mystery of life everyone? You're born, you fuck, you die. If you're lucky, you won't get zombieism.

    I also don't like how everybody who believs in god always looks at me like their in a secret society. They got that smirky kinda, oh you'll find out someday attitude.

    Just because I don't believe in tribal customs from the days when people didn't wash their hands, doesn't give you a leg up champ.

    I try not to let it get to me though, trying to change peoples minds isn't worth the effort. I just try to say something pithy and go about my day performing abortions on the sabbath while having gay sex and listening to the rap music.

    If I ever find jesus its going to be because I'm thinking of running for Senate.

    simply because the word "cult" has only appeared in negative terms in the media, etc...

    in fact, the definition of the word cult is as follows: A religion or religious sect generally considered to be extremist or false, with its followers often living in an unconventional manner under the guidance of an authoritarian, charismatic leader.

    there's your negativity right there...the root of the word...[​IMG]

    There is not a day that goes by where I don't attempt to find some sort of symbolism in certain events that transpire...

    For instance, Wednesday: good friend calls me after getting back from Kanyon City, I pick her up; it starts raining. She's on her rag, and telling me about everything that went on... including that her mother got rid of her cat. We want to go to another friend's house, but he has moved; we don't know where he lives now. We end up at The Alley Cat (a local counter-culture outpost) and spot a friend, smoking a cigarette (unknowingly and unwillingly lead to addiction...). He happens to be friends with the friend we sought earlier, so we help him load his bike into my car. He directs us to said friend's new residence, and we go inside to meet him.

    That right there is full of implied symbolism; and it's an actual event. Some things in life are too perfect to be mere coincidence...

    I don't believe in god and i think that organized religions because they control your mind. And also if you look at the history of the world and at the history of religions.

    I'll talk about Roman Catholics because i am going in a catholic school and i am baptized ...

    They say nice things like love each other and bla bla bla ... But they apply it themselves ..
    Anyway i think that i don't need any cult to live

    First, occult only means hidden.
    It is used to mean all of the "alternative religions."
    (I made up the term myself to describe how the media would speak of it.)
    And cult is purley a small religious sect.
    The term has been changed and preverted over time.

    Lol, the last part is especially true "If I ever find jesus its going to be because I'm thinking of running for Senate.".

    A cult is something hidden.

    the best one is the sect off of, errg, either Catholicism or Orthodox Christianty, where you intentiolly do sin, because through repentance and confession God loves you, so if you do bad things, then repent for them, God will love you...Rasputin was a genius :rolleyes:

    He was smart, yes, but quite a paradox you get yourself in once you start to read scriptures, eh?

    There is a lot of unnecessary information there. Why did you have to mention her bleeding crotch?
