Personal beliefs that 'you' have that your religion does not share?
I mean like there are a few chrsitians that beleive animals have souls (or at least go to heaven) even though christianity does not support that theory.
so what do you believe in?

I believe that we're all in the Garden of Eden; without knowledge of good and evil. We could have spent seconds in Eden, or Milliniums ... dunno. At some point, we independently choose to eat of the fruit of knowledge which then removed us from Eden and placed us onto Earth.
It's kinda like when I left home for school. Dad was all teary eyed, but he knew my independence was important for my growth into a well rounded human.

As a Baptist Christian, I'm a little more conservative but I don't agree with the statements that homosexuals will burn in Hell. Christianity like every other religion does not support a lot of beliefs held by some people. I believe that crucifying one for a sexual preference is not right, that abortion is wrong except under certain circumstances that could be life threatening or a product of say rape, or extreme cases that Doctors can support. Not just because. I believe in all souls being able to get to heaven, not just those devoted to Christ, I believe that all religions have good and bad points. Just like humans, after all we are the ones carrying out these scriptures and turning them to our own will at times.

my religion is only strict about practice, that we must take responsibility for making our lives and the lives of others better, and that we should try to make the world more fair. in my religion it is not the thought that counts, but the action. the belief part is pretty open and so there is nothing in my religion that contradicts with my beliefs, actually i would not sign onto a religion if it did, i would take what i liked from that religion and find something else that was a better fit or just do my own thing.

If absolutely everyone had of performed the historic past verify on Obama while him and hillary have been interior the primaries they could have thought like me . This guy isn't qualified to run for president yet dang if maximum persons did no longer vote for him and decide for him then in 2012 i presumed properly now he has shown himself to be no longer something they won't do it back yet they did .. So i think of the democratic thought is to screw u . s . of america over and make the midsection type disappear .

That the world was never civilized at any point in time. If a christ son of god walked upon the earth and got crucified I guess I believe we are savages and always will be. No better than a catfish sucking on sewage.

I belive that the religous experiance is not rational, but real as real as rationality. This is not a contradiction in that modern physics has shown that rationality or causality are useful but not always correct. This to me means that religous experiance and guidance may not always be the same, other than the one contigous belife that all religons seem to share " the supremicy of Love" Love is all you need, and all there is,

Although I am catholic I believe in evolution (although I still believe Adam and Eve existed at one time). I also believe that God loves all of his children and wouldn't keep his gay, lesbian, or bi creations from reaching the splendor of heaven. I dont believe Eve was created from Adam's rib, and I dont believe a woman is a man's property. The list keeps going but im tired of typing.

Well there's not too much I can think of that I don't believe. I found a faith that fit what I believed.
The only possible thing is that my view of Loki isn't as unfavorable as some.

I don't believe that animals go to heaven :( but one belief that I am never loosing faith in is that those who are saved will always be saved. Even if they back slide or something like that.
