what is your religion/beliefs ad what does it mean and why have you chose it?

Answer 1

Satanist, and before you jump to conclusions try learning what it is from one of us. My "god" is myself, and I worship the forces of Nature, all of them. And I believe in Magick as it leads to mental, physical, or emotional gratification. With that comes great responsibility. I shall never be filled with self-deciet or self-denial. And I shall always see things exactly as they truly are, what Nature intended them to be. We believe in a healthy ego, and because we take responsibility for our own actions, we never have to feel guilt. If we make mistakes, we simply acknowledge that what we did was wrong and we make sure not to make those same mistakes again. We don't believe in "good or evil", only just and un-just.
I could go on like this for hours so I'll respectfully be quiet now. Thanks for asking! Happy day to you!! :) :)

Oh yeah, and we hate posers and whimps, you know who you are.

Answer 2

I'm a Pagan. An eclectic hereditary witch. This means that I use ceremonies from many traditions and paths and am not bound to one tradition such as Wicca or Asatru. The hereditary means that being a witch runs in my family. Not necessarily because my mother or grandmother claimed to be a witch, but because many of the things I saw them do followed magickal thinking and actions. As a witch, I use magick to affect positive change on myself and my environment.

As a witch, it is my utmost duty (at least in my belief system) to take care of the Earth, to send out positive energy to help the Earth heal, regain its balance, etc. I have an obligation as a witch to harm no one (including myself) through my actions or inactions. Even if I think I'm doing something good for someone, I MUST ask permission before working any magick for them. To do otherwise is a violation of the "Harm None" law that most all Pagans follow.

I used to be Southern Baptist, but never felt at home there. I tried other Christian and Abrahamic religions without success. I began to study many of the world's religion and, to make a long story short, chose Paganism for its tolerance, responsibility to self and others, and its belief that we are all connected and responsible for and to each other.

Hope that helps. :)

Answer 3

I'm Roman Catholic, and I chose my faith because it satisfies my deepest spiritual and emotional needs. I love the beauty and peace of the Mass, and I can't begin to describe the joy of receiving Jesus in the sacrament of the Eucharist.

I think the Eucharist Alone would be enough for me to be Catholic, but I love the liturgy and all the wonderful practices that go along with being Catholic. The Rosary is a great way to meditate on the life of Jesus, and the use of sacramentals such as the Scapular and Holy Water are very comforting to me in times of trouble.

Catholicism is a beautiful religion, and I'm glad to be a part of it!

Answer 4

I'm Heathen

I believe in the pantheon of the Northern European/Anglo-Saxons. There are 9 realms of existence and the soul is a complex entity of several components. To hold the Noble Virtues as sacred in our lives and as guidelines in how to live our lives and conduct our behavior: Freedom, Tolerance, Courage, Self Rule, Moderation, Steadfastness, Generosity, Truth, Hospitality, Justice, Family Responsibility/ Community, Honor, Industry/industriousness, Strength, Troth/ Loyalty, Self Reliance, Wisdom

Answer 5

I believe there is a God for the following reasons:

1. The universe is not ETERNAL. The universe had to have a starting point because how do you get to the present if there is no starting point? Furthermore, the universe is not in a present state of chaos, but rather a state of life-supporting complexity. Thus, the laws of thermodynamics point to a beginning. The only logical explanation for this beginning is God.

2. The complexity of the universe is undeniable. If I told you my Phantom Rolls Royce (badass car) just randomly formed over a billions of years, would you believe me? Of course not. How much more complex is life?

Now that I believe in a god, who is this god?

I believe in the God of the Judeo-Christian Bible for the following simple reasons.

1. This is only religion in which God comes down to this earth and suffers a horrible death for his creation in order to pay the debt of their injustices so that the may spend eternity in heaven with Him.

2. The Bible is amazing. Archeology continues to support biblical historicity. Philosophically the Bible provides amazing insight and guidance to what is truth versus fallacy. The unity of the Bible is undeniable as it covers hundreds of topics, yet it does not contradict itself. Considering it was written over a period of hundreds of years by over 40 different authors, the fact that it remains united in a theme is evidence of divine nature. Moreover, an amazing number of prophecies in the Bible have been fulfilled with the most awesome prophecies concerning Jesus Christ.

Answer 6

I'm an athiest.

I believe that god doesn't exist. However, if someone can provide conclusive evidence that there is a god, I will be happy to consider it.

I think this way because I am a scientist, and that's how a good scientist works. There is no evidence for the existence of god, so I don't believe in one.

Answer 7

Atheist

Definition: An infidel

Why: After conducting an extensive search of many different religions, I came to conclusion that fairy-tales have a place in our society, but I don't need fairy-tales to cope with the ups and downs of life

Answer 8

Nontheist.

God is irrelevant.

Logic and empathy are the basis of morality, not the dictates of ancient mythology.

...

There are three possibilities regarding God.

1) God doesn't exist. Therefore, it would be a mistake to worship him.

2) God does exist, but is immoral. An immoral deity should not be worshiped. Therefore, it would be a mistake to worship him.

3) God does exist and is moral. A moral deity would not want to be worshiped. Therefore, it would be a mistake to worship him.

All three possibilities lead to the same conclusion. The existence of God is irrelevant and worshiping him is a mistake.

Answer 9

I follow Christ.

I believe that I am a sinner. I believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross of Calvary to pay the penalty for my sins should I choose to ask forgiveness from God and believe His words. I believe Jesus Christ rose from the dead and that He ascended into Heaven.

I chose to become a follower of Christ because Christ chose me. He called to me by the power of the Holy Spirit and through His gentle ministrations I accepted God's gift of salvation.

Thumbs down me if you want, but that is why I am a Christian.

Answer 10

Paganism, because of the love, care, and respect for all life taught by the Divine Creator. That diety is male and female, not just male. That there is an energy that surrounds us and it is our goal to reach out, touch that energy, and find harmony with it.
