May I have a sip Mav? I could use a sugary sweet tequila filled refreshment after today. Whew! It is more a question of who. My dear sweet Grandmother who I love more today and miss more than ever. She taught me so much. I was never able to fully appreciate any of it until her passing. She was the tiniest women with the biggest most forgiving heart I have ever seen in my life. She loved Jesus more openly than I have seen anywhere. She is also a lady who suffered much in her lifetime, but kept strong even when Alzeihmers was knocking at her door and killing her. She didn't know her family, but she knew the lord and could recite the bible and the songs she adored. I think of her always and I know she would be very proud of the life I am trying my best to lead. I am excited to see her in heaven! Just not anytime soon. I'll wait awhile. How about you? I am curious? So was it the hair or the eyes I got wrong. I think I got the rest right. I enjoy your questions, they are very friendly and encouraging.

Reputation- Too many bad things have happened with ALL religions, so I don't put any faith in those.
Science- science has come such a long way, and it's good to have ideas theories, proof, etc.
I have always been the type to say "prove it to me" and until either God or science does, I will stick to my conscience to let me do the right things- I have faith in myself
I don't want to be a hypocrite by going to church while "living in sin" so I choose not to take that path.

I was raised to believe in a certain set of tenets. Questioning anything was strictly forbidden. I didn't feel that it made any sense to me no matter how hard I tried and I didn't connect with it at all so I started looking for something that did make sense. Turns out that it was something I believed all along but was always told it was imaginary.

is it legal for mav to have magarita? lol
search for knowledge i guess would best describe it. i was christian long ago, curious by stories i asked questions, denied by most christians an answer, i searched the bible for my answers, finding many contradictions and flaws throughout it. led me to believe the bible is nothing more then man made with error about it.

Endora sips champaign and replies, moonlight and fireflies, sunsets and mist, lavender and amethyst, moonlight and roses, babies pink noses, whispering winds on an autumn's chill night, when witches sprout wings and then take to flight!

my Native American Ancestry had a lot to do with adding some Ancient Belief System ways into my Christian background.

Non-Muslim here. I don’t wish to be argumentative but I disagree with the Islamic belief that I should be killed.
