I'm a Theistic Satanist, and it has shown me not to view the world in black and white or good versus evil. It has also helped me to be more tolerant towards people of all religions, because different people relate to different aspects of the active forces in the universe.

I was hoping to hear information about the beliefs of all of you guys, not get a lecture about my own!!
Its ok though, I know my beliefs are often misunderstood and aren't tolerated well by others. However, if thinking that I'm wrong has improved your life, who I am to argue?

Well, I am the opposite of you. I am a Christian! It has helped me to be a ton nicer. A lot of times I want to say some nasty things to people on this site, but God has helped me to hold my tounge. God taught me true love and how powerful it truly is. He has taught me that he will be with me always. He taught me that I am no better than anyone else in this world. I have sinned, and he is my only salvation. He brought me through many trials like being evacuated 2 times from the country I love the most, having my mother sick with cancer, have my uncle dying with cancer, etc. I don't think I could handle all those situations in a good way if I didn't have Jesus in my heart. God bless!

you don't see the world as black & white because you are in the middle of the black evil.
& ignoring the truth will not help you survive from the punishment & hell.
Imagine yourself doing a 2 hours university Exam, the fun thing is to hand on an empty paper & use these 2 hours for playing cards(for example) & the worst thing is to do the exam with answering wrong answers!
The only Success is by taking the challenge & answering the right answer.
So look for the true religion (only one available) to get most of the happiness in your life & the afterlife.

Buddhism... the Dharma teaches you the logic of your actions in relation to the rest of the "universe" (I'll say loosely) and sentient beings, so that you understand that the results of what you do and do not do are solely your responsibility, and nobody else's and when you do virtuous deeds the karma will be pleasant, and when you do non-virtuous deeds, the karmic results will not be pleasant, not by a long-shot.
It has taught me what non-virtuous deeds are and what causes such thinking to arise, and how to counter the thinking with correct action and understanding, etc.
Long story, but that's the beginnings... enough I'm sure to give you an idea.

I'm an atheist. It's made me a better person in that I don't take anything at face value (as the truth) when someone tells me something is true. I always research and come to my own conclusions scientifically.

I have a deterministic mindset. Freewill doesn't seem real to me so I guess I've learned not to judge others because I might as well be in their shoes.

I would have been a dead alcoholic biker - - or certainly riding around with one foot in the grave had The Lord Jesus Christ not pulled me from the mire and clay and made me his humble Priest.

satan is a liar and the Father of it................he & his dominion are not tolerant of Christianity nor will they ever be. He was behind the murder of Jesus the Christ but God intervened & turned that to good, the securing of our salvation was the outcome of HIS sacrifice...............read the bible & do some research....I do not profess tolerance of satan & his realm...................I rebuke anything concerning him in the name of the Lord our God.................<>< <><
