Atheism is grounded on a constant need for self-examination and a refusal to accept a single, final "truth". The idea that a set of beliefs constitutes the be-all and end-all of truth is absurd. So yes, questioning is the only way by which we may ever achieve anything close to it. And then keep questioning.

I think everyone does at some point or another..but It's what I was raised to believe. religion is a very complex thing. have you ever played telephone before? like a bunch of people is in a circle and the first person whispers something to the person sitting next to them and so on and so forth..and by the time it gets to the last person what the first person said is totally different to what was told to the last person? that's how I view religion...it's so many generations and generations that somewhere along the line, someone had added their own two cents in or left out certain details..so I think we all have some sort of fabrication in our religions.........

No I don't. Before I made any decision I first did an investigation on all the facts and evidence I could find. After a thorough investigation I knew that Christianity, and the Bible, is the only way -I mean true Christianity and the entire Bible.Nothing else makes any sense and nothing else rings out any truth whatsoever.

Yes. Most religions are meant to be questioned. It's what makes the truth believable. It must be questioned before it is accepted as truth.

It would be very foolish to never question what you hear at a church/temple/mosque/kingdom hall/synogogue. I questioned and the answers I found reaffirmed the faith I had always had. Bible study is a constant work in progress and the more I learn, the more I realize I don't know. So I gotta keep digging.

I never have. I see my religion as a history of G-d and my people and their relationship thru time. It declares that G-d is One, and that all people are equal and we should work to make the world a better place for all people.

The "actual" faith for anyone is the only via which they could grow to be the closest to God. All God-based religions have a center of reality otherwise no person can save on with it. rather in all religions there are guy-made ideals that isn't be actual, and rather some religions could have greater of that middle reality than others, yet that does no longer replace the needed middle. while people stumbled on a faith with a better reality than their previous faith they abandoned to previous in prefer of the greater desirable reality. have been people incorrect in worshiping God as different beings and calling Him Ra, Zeus, Odin, Apollo or hundreds of different names? No. That served them for that element. yet as greater desirable reality and records grew to become into stumbled on those faiths died away so as that no person heavily worships God decrease than those names as we talk. The previous testomony is in fact the story of one people's boost in faith and records of God. It starts off with an quite primitive information, yet as time progresses that information grew and developed. This boost is considered clearer in case you study the books interior the order wherein they have been written fairly than the order wherein they are secure interior the Bible. And via the way it particularly is extremely naive to assume that if people have confidence one faith that it skill that they have got not examined the ideals of different faiths. an stunning style of theists have carried out purely that. Edit: there is completely one God. So if each and every physique is worshiping a God with a coaching of love as its middle message than no count if or no longer they calling Him God, Allah, Yahweh, Adonai, Brahma, Ahura Mazda, the great Spirit, or any style of different names as we talk, they are nevertheless worshiping the comparable God.

No, because my religion is based on the Bible alone, not tradition, opinion, or man made beliefs; so, I know it's the Truth.

Yes, but it's past tense now! I did question my religion and walked away from it because (short version) of all the lies it was built on. Now I have no religion, I am happier now for sure! :)
