Answer 3

I'm a Pagan. I worship and honor nature and it's duality because I think since nature is where we come from and it's also where we're going then it's the most sacred thing in existance. Paganism actually makes sense to me. I believe in evolution, that we all came from molecular dust, etc. I believe in things that are backed up by scientific evidence. The main difference between myself and an Atheist is that God exists in every aspect of nature, the creative and the destructive, the light and the dark, the male and the female, the birth and the death of things.

I hope that's clearly put. :) Blessed be.

Answer 4

I believe in a higher Divine force greater than us. I believe that religions are man made in an attempt to understand the divine, not Divinely made to help man understand them.

I believe a large portion of the world has no clue what it means to be spiritual. And that if Christ came back today, that most would accuse him of being Satan.

I believe it doesn't matter what you believe, as long as you believe in something. Who cares what name you call the divine, as long as you acknowledge and believe in that divine.

Faith is blind to a point, Trying to "spread the word, or convert someone to another belief is ignorant and futile.

If I being a non-christian came to your house to speak to you about the errors of your ways and convineced you to change your beliefs, how strong was your faith to begin with?

The reverse is true of anyone going to others trying to convience them they are wrong, mean, evil, horrible people and will burn in hell if they do not convert to their way of thinking.

Which is amazing that 4billion people who have a strong faith/belief system that is not the same as the other 2billion people on the planet are going to burn in hell because they believe wrong.

May you find your answers and Enlightenement you Seek.

Many Blessings, Senebty

Answer 5

I'm going to have to write that up some day. Basically, I'm a Christian, but with some Buddhist leanings, where they don't conflict with Christianity. I've been building my own personal cosmology for literally decades. I'm not saying that I'm right, but I believe I have a better comprehension of what is actually going on than many others out there.

Answer 6

I believe in the wonder and mysticism of the universe, I will call it The Divine. I believe that there is much we will never know about the universe, including forces that are present in our daily lives. What it *is* and what it's relationship is to us, I do not know.

I don't like to call it God, God has too many human ideas attached to it already. To define The Divine places the limits of human understanding upon that which is truly limitless.

I have come to this belief after being exposed to various belief systems including Christian, Athiest, Agnostic, and some Eastern religions.

Answer 7

This is going to sound ridiculous but I believe in a magical universal energy/power that we are all part of, nature included. There may be a god and that god would be part of that power. When we die, our souls blend together and become part of that power. We will all be one all knowing, all powerful 'being'. If there is a god, our souls will join together and we will become 'him'. (I'm in no way referring to a typical Christian God) That is only what I believe. I do not rule out the fact that I may be wrong and that someone else may be right. I don't have the answers, just a possibility that I like to believe is true.

Answer 8

I don't believe in hell. I believe that we all go to the spirit of God and join the collective force - heaven. I don't believe in sin. I believe that everyone is doing what they are supposed to do for the plan. Even if they are doing 'bad things' its all part of the plan. Doesn't matter what you call God we're all on the same path home.

Answer 9

I don't have great faith, but what faith I have gives me great comfort. I believe that god is walking with me though this life. He will not stop something bad happening but he will be there to help me though it.

Answer 10

i believe it all. Islam.

Because though its given a bad image cuz of stupid people im still proud of being muslim. I love it i think because it makes sense to me, the treatment of the orphans, wives, charity, the acts of your whole body moving in praying, your arms, mind legs, bending in prostration for my lord, who i love that moment where everything wrong goes away and i concentrate on worshipping God. My kind of religion...*sigh*
