I have taken 2 Religion classes in college, and I find them to be really interesing
As for myself, I dont really have any religion
However, I dont consider myself an atheist,
I believe there may be a supreme being that creates this universe,
but I just... dont really care about it much.
I know my grandmother was very devoted to Buddhism,
and I went to Protestant schools from kindergarden to first year of highschool
been dragged to Sunday Church school a few times by my friends.
I think I lean more towards Confusianism
I care more about the here and now then the after-life and such... _________________

I was raised as a Roman Catholic, but I'm an atheist. Or Secular Humanist, whichever you understand better. _________________

I'm raised a Roman Catholic, but don't actively practice due to much hypocrisy. Oh well, anyways I find a lot of the people that visit the church I used to goto hypocrites that would call you a sinner and unforgivable, and then when they have commited a sin, everyone should forgive them and move on.
Stuff like that gets to me, I'd rather just pray at home and keep in touch with God that way. |

I'm a christian but I do not follow the bible; instead I follow the morale tellings by Jesus yet do not see the universe formed by a old man *has to be a man type god in our eyes* personally I feel religon causes more evil than it does good, most wars and fanatics are inspired by the notion that'll be taken to the blessive afterlife.
So really I'm christian yet my idealogy is more based on buddist ideal as I see a fine line between buddishm and jesus teachings. I also make myself follow my own guidelines; to maintain good health and to learn to understand the world and to not accept sexual desires *There is enough of it on TV and in society as it is*.
I do believe in the concept that the overall aim is enlightenment in life but however in the end I can't deny that there is some force responcible in forming the universe. *Everything has a perfect way of order, from people to the way planets move round the sun etc* From everything I've seen of the universe I think it would be absoulte naive of us just to say it resulted out of the big bang but nor do I think there is one supreme being whatever it is only death will tell us. That's my answer to the question of the afterlife. |

Not to cause like a verbal beatdown... but uh, doesn't this go against basic Human feelings and a basic need?
I mean, even animals need to have sex.
Or are you just refering to lustful casual sex? Which I agree, is bad. haha _________________

Sex is where the basic need comes in but i stray away from lustful side. Even having sex is a choice, as i don't see myself becoming a good father to any child. If i were to have sex than it would be when i'm married and not being lustful.
Anyway its ok if you decide to on a verbal beatdown as how I manage to forget to define it by adding in 'lustful' was my simple error.
*edited to remove run on rambling* |

Satonism
PLEASE do not start telling me that im a bad person and im evil because that is ignorant and wrong.What you probably think about satonists is all just a misconception.
Satonism is about more realistic beliefs and such. If anyone has anymore questions about Satonism I would be glad to answer them :P _________________

I don't think that you're a bad person. I just think you're stupid. |

I agree with Iscalio, but only because I find it rather annoying when people can't spell the name of groups they are affiliated with.
I find Satanism very interesting and unlike popular perception it has nothing to do with devil worship. All it REALLY means is "Survival of the Fittest" it acknolwedges humans as selfish and each being as the centre of his or her own Universe and it basically says "I should only do things if I want to do them" (want doesn't just mean immediate want, it can refer to long term things- I don't want to work in itself, but I want money, so I work or "want" to work). |

Satanism is for self-serving, narcissistic hypocrites who never understood what "religion" is (since nihilistic, overplayed utilitarism with a dark touch is not).
And for immature minds who think that all things dark are "cool".
I somehow think you represent the second category, Kenny Wells.
