I still can't believe it's not butter!

What religions do you believe in, if any? If not, what is it and why?

I am not religious at all, I do not agree with religion nor do I believe in any of it. I am agnostic, I don't know if there is a god or not and I don't think we are supposed to know. But I don't have proof that one exists or not.

I'm Catholic. And I believe Christian and Catholic should just merge into one because they're basically the same thing.

I agree, I always get them confused and I thought they were the same thing. XD

For me my religion is kinda uncertain right now.

I went to a Christian private school all of middle school and all of high school (this year is my last year. )

I'm currently Christian, but I have been looking into Islam, and thinking about converting. :O

But I still always find discussion of religion interesting~

Edit: As long as people are respectufl and aren't mean about it... :UGH:

It has been reported that some victims of torture, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not wake up. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they were not being tortured. The only way that they realized they needed to wake up was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to wake up. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and please wake up.

I agree with this!

They share a series of beliefs that differ. The main ones are that Catholics have the pope, and Marie is much more important to them. They also have other stuff but I won't get into it all.

My basic belief would be a mix of Agnostic and Theism. I believe that there is a "God" though what this God is, is anyone's guess. My reason for believing this is actually based on fact, but I won't get into that since that would take me a long time to write. Basically though, I feel God exists. As well, I think an afterlife exists.
I also do not have a specific religion, because, there are things I disagree with in most of them. I feel when it comes to religion the route of "falling your gut" is a good one. I don't believe everything said int he bible, but I do use it as a guideline. I also believe A LOT of people misinterpret the bible constantly.

I believe in Karma, and I think for the most part we just have to all try to be the best we can. Open our minds to others beliefs and cultures, and ways. Accept people for who they are and be honest. This isn't always going to happen, but, even if you DONT follow a religion, these rules are great to follow and will make your life better.

I also think people need to chill out about religion, in that I mean there are to many people who argue about which one is "right" and such. People need to just accept that we all have our own beliefs on religion, and just let people believe what they want. My Philosophy instructor once said, "You can not change another's beliefs, only your own"

Roman Catholic was actually born out of Christianity,the Romans accepted it after the death of Jesus a few years afterwards.

The Jewish religion is where Christian religion came from when people followed the teachings of Jesus back before his death in 30 AD,basically ancient societies developed their own forms.

Pagans believed in many gods,they figured everything they saw had a god for it,some folks believe aliens from outer space are the ancient gods that visited ancient civilizations around the globe,the drawings and structures built in those times are being used as proof by scientist these days.

I myself am a Christian but think we need to decide for ourselves if we choose to believe or not.

I'm a Catholic with agnostic tendencies. I don't like the church as an organisation. It's run by humans not God and as such, it is wealthy and corrupt, which is at odds with what they teach. The beliefs and the concept of God and the afterlife, however, I cannot rule out.

I suppose Im the only Baptist here then_lol! Im of baptist faith because my family is. I think that some Baptist people of this faith go a bit over board with their faith being super Christians by shoving their faith in other people's faces. I dont do that & tend to make more friends that way. :D
