I believe in life - in the interaction of all things. You could say that I have a holistic view of nature. As Douglas Adams would put it: The interconnectedness of all things
I see things as a huge multi-dimensional net. If you pull hard on one nexus (meeting point) all the other points immediately around are heavily affected with the degree of change lessening the further away you are... but never entirely disippating.
This shows how events / people / whatever can affect everything around because everything is connected.
I always remember the phrase: God made man in his own image.
Which egocentric religious types take it to mean that we look like God. A statement I find crass and arrogant
I interpret it differently: God made man (with)IN his own image.
As in: we are PART of the image of God.
Which logically leads on to the Universe being 'God'. It's just a word at the end of the day is 'God'... a label. I like to think that we are just a part of something REALLY REALLY huge.
I think you got rather more than you bargained for with this answer... :-)
So reading that - do YOU think I'm religious????

Yes I am religious but I am more of a spiritual person. I believe in God and I heavily believe in prayers and that God has always answered my prayers.

I have been saved. I believe in God and that Christ is my Savior. I no longer believe in going to church due to an experience. I will just write I was a rookie christian and learned that the experienced christians will "stab you in the back." The worse thing is they are family members who I try my best not to talk to. I have learned you do not have to be a christian to go to church.

I do not believe in god & I have to amit I do mock religion. That does not mean you have no beliefs or morals. In a simple sense its means you do not believe in a god or a creator.
Theres so many gods out there I am wondering which hell I am going to when I die or do I get to visit them all...!!!!

I DO NOT believe in religion. They all think that they are correct and they condemn anyone who believes differently than they do. Religions demonstrate the height of hypocracy. They preach about loving everyone equally while at the same time they condemn people to hell or wherever because a person is of a different religion.

I've never been a huge fan of mass slaughter, female oppression, slavery and hierarchy but hey, each to their own is the theory right?

I believe that whatever I believe in that causes no harm to anyone should not cause anyone to harm me because of my belief
