I am new to all this, but feel like it just comes naturally to me. I started a new cleansing/blessing ceromony in my apartment. It was pretty simple.
I have oil burners in my living room, bathroom, and bedroom. So I took this little tray I have and put 3 tea light candles on it like a triangle. I also put the scented oil (nag champa in 2, morning glory in the bathroom) on the tray and a small glass of water. I lit incense in the kitchen and bedroom,(also Nag Champa) and grabbed my tray with one candle lit, and my abalone shell with burning sage and started in the kitchen and worked my way to the bedroom, refilling and lighting the oil burners and fanning the sage.
I didn't say anything, I just focused on bringing happiness to the rooms, especially in sad places. I'd concentrate until the negative energy was gone and then move on.
I made this up, and it worked good. Who else does ceremonies like this? And am I chosen to do this, or did I get lucky? Thank you for your answers.

Are you so weak and shallow that you need a 'crutch' to help you cope with the truth that we are born....we live....we die?!
That there is no afterlife?
Why waste your lives worshiping a fairytale....when you could spend your 'three score years and ten', helping others and making life better for all!???????????????

Could it possibly be, because humans and apes are both primates? Sharing a common ancestor?
Naah, that couldn't be right creationists? That's far too plausible to be right according to you.
Easier to believe a nonsensical myth that states "a magic sky-pixie sneezed out the universe one morning" or some other such clap-trap.
Don't you idiots EVER get tired of being wrong?

I absolutely love him so much, but that's my opinion. I would love to hear what you have to say. take it consideration that he is really super smart, and look at a couple of his lyrics; they have really valid points.
(THE FIGHT SONG)
nothing suffocates you more than the passing of everyday human events. isolation is the oxygen mask you make your children breath into survive. but i'm not a slave to a god that doesn't exist
but i'm not a slave to world that doesn't give a ****. and when we were good you just closed you eyes. so when we are bad we're going to scar your minds. you'll never grow up to be a big-rock-star-celebrated-victim-of-your-fame. they'll just cut our wrists like cheap coupons and say that death was on sale today. and when we were good you just closed you eyes. so when we are bad we're scar your minds. the death of one is a tragedy, the death of a million is just a statistic.

If Satan believes the words of John 3:16, then he will go to heaven, right? Christianity only requires belief, not action.

Do you think that getting rid of death altogether will rid world of the belief in gods and an afterlife? Imagine when we are so advanced that the vast majority don't really die? memory upload and cloning will make as finally immortals. All diseases eradicated. If you die they'll just transfer your memory to a computer until they can clone you a new body and then upload all your thoughts. Will people finally stop relying on an afterlife and god so much? what do you think?

Athiesm is the belief that there is no God, right?
In order to know that there is no God, you would have to know absolutely everything. Everything!
It's like saying, there are no watches in the north pole. I would have to know every rock, nook, and cranny in the north pole to make that statement.
So, all you self proclaimed athiests are really agnostics (someone who doesn't know about God), right?

I was watching a real life tv show. and this lady who was christian, wouldn't let anyone who didn't believe in jesus into her house. (she was nuts)

Are there many christians like this or was she just a one off? (i understand theres people that take it to extremes in each religion)

And i dont understand how people can be like this, its pretty much just like being racist.
