What do other people think your spiritual beliefs are?

Question

What are your real beliefs?

Answer 1

My close family and friends know I'm Pagan and they don't care. Other people may or may not know....I don't preach to them about it. I wear my pentacle and if they ask I will tell them. I think most who don't know me very well think I'm merely agnostic.

Like some of the others hatred and general anger has been sent in my direction from some who think I am wrong or damned or whatever but I just ignore them. I will defend myself (verbally) to any outright attack, but the generic stereotypical crap I ingnore.

Answer 2

Many people think we are evil demon worshipers, we kill people, eat children, create zombi, and curse everyone we see.

I am a Vodouisant. I practice Haitian Vodou. We believe in God (Bondye), we serve the lwa (elevated spirits), and honor our ancestors. We don't curse others, those that do these things are called Bokors and they are not part of Vodou at all.

This link will give you a basic understanding of what Vodou is: http://www.sosyetedumarche.com/Vodou_Info/vodou_info.html
A Haitian based Vodou house in the US.

If anyone has any questions I would be glad to answer them. Email me.

Answer 3

They don't know. Then they assume I am a 'heathen'. This makes me even less willing to tell them anything. I have had too much hostility aimed at me when I try to express my beliefs. I have stopped doing it.

Answer 4

this might sound like a stupid idea to you
but personal
i think ive kinda come up with my own ideas on what god is and what happened
ok here goes;
I think "god" is a god at all
i think "god" is more of a essence
like love or hate
i think god is the essence of life
it is life and life is it
it does not choose or think or watch us
it is there because it has to be there
"god" is life

Answer 5

Plese, comment on this believe....If you know the reality...

God is prime element, which is converted into creation. In other word in the sky of infinity this infinitely existing, is called god, who is associated with all visible and invisible. God is an existence. We are part of it, like a molecule in a stone. The molecule of infinity as a whole is called a stone. Likewise a small existence of god in every molecule is a prime truth. Effect of creation is called nature and being self processed. The procedure of processing is nature, which is created by effect of creation.

Now god is an existence and every part of god is managed by automatic system of nature .We are being managed by nature, which is called, “shakti”(almighty) and whole existence is called “shiva”. Respectively territorial parts of nature are called bhagwan\ deities. The prime soul of whole existing is “Ishwar”, which at present is in salvation position. Ishwar was and will be almighty at the time of starting conversion of element into creation and end of creation (kayamat). Then after he will be new creator of new creation .It is endless process and continuous process. Molecules of creation are being transformed into “Atma”(soul) by it’s nature.

At present nature is almighty .All molecules of creation are self managed and effected (controlled) by automatic system of nature. Nature is effect of co-existence of molecules (creation). Now we are under control of territorial bhagwans\ deities (Territorial nature). keeping in view to above facts it is clear that at present god is an existence and being self processed by it’s nature.

Heaven\Hell is within the world and it’s atmosphere. This world is like a big computer and our soul is a curser.
Nature is not yet become perfect. She is partially negative also. She has desires for improvement, increase of her strength and capacity. She likes every thing as you compel to do by your nature. Now you have two ways, either you have to faith in your god or go with nature. Nature Involves enjoyment as well as punishment and sacrifice . Her every action gets reaction. So enjoy the life or strict in your faith in god. Who will give you better position in next creation and you will be enjoy to infinite extent. If you are very bad man you will be toilet cleaner in next creation. So know your self and be cooperative and merciful to each other. Then, nature will also love you as well as god loves you.

“Nothing is proved as that dangerous as the thought of taking yourself to be always right. The ill effect of orthodox principle was such that the world got filled with miseries, unlawfulness, war, crime and hatred. Blind faith on own religion, intolerance and imposition of own religion on others have done a lot of harm to this world. True religions never shout at each others sitting on the branches of same tree, whether it is wise to remain calm reaching to the root. Religion is not a chaos , but a peace. Religion doesn’t spark the war, but is a friendship and love.” .....
Nature cares all the creatures microbes , insect , evil as well as human. She has to arrange food for every one . there is dangerous situation for all. Who are saved ....there is end of every thing...

There is no sinner & winner, when we already surrendered our self according to the God’s will. we all are helpless even we can't sleep or breath own ways. we are going to escape from evil's will and trying to become God believer and perfect one. At present, almighty (Ishwar) is in salvation position & nature is almighty. Any believer can't talk to him directly. You have to pray the nature. Without her cooperation your message will go to recycle bin.....You have to know reality….......................
