I'm a Pagan. I believe in God (more appropriately a supreme being). Proof I can't give you, that's why I'm not a Christian. I believe in God because it is the only thing that makes sense to me about how the world and all its generations of inhabitants first came to be on this planet.
I believe that all things should be revered and treated with respect and admiration. I believe that following a strict religious faith (Muslim, Judaism, Christianity, etc) perpetuates and justifies hate, murder and inhumanity towards our fellow men, and I believe it does it all in the name of a god.
I believe people should open their eyes and reflect on all the possibilities. I believe that people should be willing to "agree to disagree" about faith and spirituality.
How I came to be a Pagan. I have studied numerous other religions (Pantheism, Christianity, Buddhism just to name a few) and have found that I most closely believe and live my life in the way that is "typical" of a Pagan belief. But unless someone asks me what I specifically believe, I answer I am spiritual, not religious.

Me. I think therefore I am.
The original scriptures state that when Moses approached to the burning bush he asked "What are you?"
The bush replied, "I am what I am."
I am what I am is the literal meaning for Yahweh.
The teacher they wrote about 400 years after his death is a tail of Joshua. Which is the adaptation of the word Yahweh and it is really spelled Yashua... a derivative of Yahweh.
The Romans called him son of Zeus and changed the name from Yashua to Yazeus which the Y was later replaced with the letter J and spelled Jesus (son of zeus).
As the original word for God is Yahweh ( I am what I am) and the word God came from the word GAD, which means good. Gad luck was a typical word which meant Good be with you.
Therefore, god is good is a literal translation.
It is the Visigoths who gave the newly formed identity of Jesus his beard and mustache as this was the symbol of power to grow a beard and mustache at that time in history.
The Romans had him sitting in the right hand of Zeus and he was a young looking boy with the physic of a young 19 year old.
Know your history and you will find that the Bible was intended to control the state by the church and is one of the greatest fairy tails ever told in order to try and explain the human condition without science based information. Thus, you dumb people down to accept nonsense, they won't question authority.

I believe there is Brahman/Supreme Being who is beyond proof but is also at this point in my life beyond comprehending which is why I rely on the influence of the Avatars to worship so that my belief can reach Brahman through them.
JAI GANESHA!

I'm a believer of God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
If you read the Bible and believe in Jesus Christ, you are going to lead a great life and take the road to Heaven.
Don't trust any other religions - they are just made up by Satan (devil) to make you turn away from God so He will punish you and send you to Hell. I'm dead serious about this.

I believe the Qur'an is the final revelation sent to mankind by Gabriel. I believe that Islam is the religion of ALLAH that ALLAH made for all mankind to follow. I believe that ALLAH has no partners or sons. I believe in the Jinn and angels.
ALLAH says in the Qur'an:
"This day I have perfected your religion for you, completed My favor upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion".(Sura AI-Maa'idah 5:3)
"If anyone desires a religion other than Islam submission to ALLAH(GOD) never will be accepted of Him"(Sura Aal' imraan 3:85)
"And behold! ALLAH will say:"O Jesus son of Mary! Did you say to men, Worship me and my mother as gods besides ALLAH?" He will say:"Glory to you I could not say what I had no right to say"(Sura AI Maa'idah 5:116)
"That which you worship besides Him are only names that you and your forefathers have invented for which ALLAH has sent down no authority: The command belongs only to ALLAH: He has commanded that you worship only Him; that is the right religion but most men do not understand"(Sura Yoosuf 12:40)
"I have only created Jinns and men, that they might worship me"(Sura Zaareeyaat 51:56)
"Verlily ALLAH will not fogive the Joining of partners in worship with Him, but He may forgive (sins) less than that for whomsoever He wishes"(Sura An-Nisa 4:8 and 116)
Sura 39: The Throngs
Verse 4: If GOD wanted to have a son, He could have chosen whomever He willed from among His creations. Be He glorified; He is GOD, the One, the Supreme.
Sura 109: The Disbelievers
1.Say, "O you disbelievers.
2."I do not worship what you worship.
3."Nor do you worship what I worship.
4."Nor will I ever worship what you worship.
5."Nor will you ever worship what I worship.
6. "To you is your religion, and to me is my religion."

i'm an atheist..right after highschool,i went to a bible school and graduated as an associate of the ministry but a year after that,my views about things just changed..i guess i started seeing the bible as somethin much like a book of fairy tales...but contrary to what other people might think,i still do respect christianity and any other religions.i even think it's good for other people to believe in things like heaven and earth...because somehow,i think it gives them direction and hope.
----->thanks for the thumbs down you guys...so much for respect then...
