Try to keep it simple people. I'm looking for a few words, not bible verses or life stories. Unless provoked or asked. Whose word do you follow? What would you die for? How far should people go on behalf of their faith? What do you think of the idea of religion in general and why what you believe is the answer or not the answer? I'm not here to judge you I'm just curious. Satisfy me!

Satanist- why- Christian corruption and conspiracy! Whose word do I follow and what would I die for? No-one now! How far should people go with their faith- only as far as it does not illegally destroy other peoples' lives! I believe a lot of the religion that we see in today's society is based on BS and people who think they are gods and who have re-written works like the Bible to their own particular interest - absolutely no excuse for violation of any particular individual's fundamental rights and freedoms under the UN Human Rights Commission, The Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and and other Democratic laws in North America!! Acts like this are equivalent or worse than what the Nazis did to people in WWII and it is sickening that anything like this could even occur in an advance technological society such as this!! It's absolutely demoralizing and totally outrageous!

I was a born again bible believing Christian but have walked away. I still believe there is a God but not a personal God of any religion. I think faith in general is a good thing and would never discourage others. Peace :-)

I'm a muslim and I follow the word of God - Quran. I would die only if I felt that it was for a wothwhile cause. The idea of religion is to keep peace and security in the society and guide people to the true path and above all to be obedient to God.

Follow words which lead to truth of life.
Cannot die, body Changes birth after birth.
Faith is the foundation on which one could lead to truth.
Purpose of Religion is just to provide a platform to make people rise on the path of spirituality. Purpose of religion is not to make its platform greater than the Goal of spirituality.
At highest level there is no question or answer, its all illusion due to Ignorance of self.
Great r those who take out the human beings from this Delusion.

I am atheist, I follow my own sense of right and wrong; I would die for my children (they are 24 and 26). Many people need to limit what they would do for their faith (9/11 is a case in point); I believe religions are exploitive of people and abuse people.

Pagan
I follow no one persons word, I take my lessons from history.
I would die for the greater good; five people and only room in a rescue boat for four people and they are able to make it to safety without me, I would let them go on.
Religion should be a personal matter.
Religion has it's purpose, it shouldn't be used to scare or threaten people into following someone elses world view, nor should it be used as a justification to make war on people who do not believe as you do.

I am a Muslim and i follow Islam and try so hard to show Islam as the true peaceful religion it is. What you see on TV is not true Islam. I believe that there is one God and one God only, and that Muhammad (pbuh) is his messenger. To answer your Q about how far i would on behalf of my faith..i would go as far as my strength and ability can take me..only I and God know my true intentions.
watch the message
it will change your minds
its a good movie
with Anthony Quinn(if you know who he is)
God Bless

Heaven is where God is and hell is where God is not. Earth is where we are. How do we get to God?
My religion, my way of life, is documented in the Christian bible. For me, the bible is God's word as spoken through the prophets. The bible is for believers and not a conversion manual.
In its pages you will see that God kept his promise by sending a redeemer: A redeemer that was born, that was executed, and that God raised from the dead. Our hope is that we will raise from the dead as well.

I am a proud Bible thumping Christian. If the Bible says it I believe it.
I would die for Christ, but would not try to take anyone with me, (sound familiar).
The Bible is the answer because God caused it to be written...that's good enough for me.
