Religion

[Sadistictickler]

What is your religion?

I'm a Catholic Christian...though I've explored and worshipped with others many times.

And just why are you curious about our religion, ST?

 

[Limeoutsider]

It varies.

 

[luv2bt&tickled]

I don't have one, like I am not just a Baptist or Pentecostal etc...etc...I believe in God is the most important thing I feel. I don't believe in the Jehovah's witnesses beliefs but that is just me. 🙂

GOD IS DEAD

Do we not hear anything yet of the noise of the gravediggers who are burying God? Do we not smell anything yet of God's decomposition? Gods too decompose. God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we, murderers of all murderers, console ourselves? That which was the holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet possessed has bled to death under our knives. Who will wipe this blood off us? With what water could we purify ourselves? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we need to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we not ourselve become gods simply to be worthy of it? There has never been a greater deed; and whosoever shall be born after us - for the sake of this deed he shall be part of a higher history than all history hitherto.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, it's just hard to understand how you see or believe what you just wrote. I mean did you ever see a baby born and take it's first breath? The sun, the rain which without we'd have no crops? So many things, your body for instance.....your lungs allowing you to breath, your heart, your eyes, everything that some of us not everybody but some take for granted. This has been a long time arguement that will go on when you and I are dead and gone. It's just a shame. My 2 cents

Well all the things you’ve listed are fascinating, but why must I believe in god to enjoy them.
And what is about all the ugly things in this world like war, dead, humiliation, hunger. Who is responsible for these?


I even can imagine that god exists but, if he/she/it exists, he/she or it don’t care about religion, church et cetera. These things are human Inventions to control you.
Religion is just something for people who are afraid of making their own decisions and rules…
Religion is just something for herd….

And this is what I’ve tried to say with this quote of Nietzsche.

Satan my friend, it is the reason! God had nothing to do with any of this! And the words you speak sound just like him.
Besides it sounds like to me that you aren't real sure your self!!!, that's why the poll and the thread🙄

 

[alex_ist_tot]

Sorry I believe as less in Satan as I believe in God.
I think both are just the product of the dualistic way to think.
I don’t think that bad or good are fundamental notions, I think they are just dependent to your point of view.

It wasn’t my intention to offend someone with my post, I just wanted to say my point of view.

 

[BigJim]

I could'nt actually vote on this poll, because my "religion" isn't defined in the answers.

As far as I can define myself, I'm a follower of the "law of one". All spirit comes from the same source, we're all a part of each other and a part of "God". Each individual human soul is like a single cell in the body of 'God' and yet we can each connect to the sum total of spirit energy or Force if we wish to.

So my deity is both one and many. 😕 Confused? So was I when I tried to put it into words. Hell, I still am now!

Sugah you didn't offend me, you spoke your mind and your views and I spoke mine. No hard feelings on my part! Honest

You can't kill 'God' any more than you can destroy your own soul. The only way you can 'kill God' is to totally disconnect yourself from your own origins and truth, but even then it kills you more than God.

It don't matter if that's the way you think. You can believe that the power of Satan is the collective vibration of all negative deeds and the God or 'Christ energy' is the sentinent energy created by all light side thoughts. So long as you act in such a way as to benefit the light side more than the dark, no deity worth his salt would send you to hell.

 

[Sadistictickler]

uhm, yeah, well, I myself think the meme-theory (www.christianitymeme.com for example, not suited for people who hate faith being mocked) is the most likely one. The so-called explanation of our brutal acts of violance "blame satan" is in my opinion quite lame.

Hell yes!!! We ARE God! Our souls are made of the 'Holy Spirit' if you want to call it that. If Satan is to blame for something that happens in the world, then we created Satan through our actions and brainwaves, so it's OUR fault. If humanity's rejects who keep blaming the failiures and evils of the world on God or Satan, took responsibility for it themselves, the world would be a much nicer place.

Why no Subgenius catagory????? Damn!

All's I know is that God was on the side of the South during the Civil War, the Germans during WWI ("Got Mit Uns") and the 9/11 terrorists did what they did for God - and they succedded in their mission!

I get the idea that no matter what you do or what side you take, this guy's pretty good at playing both against the middle & is gonna come out ahead no matter what.....

'God' is never on the side of someone who needlessly creates negativity, but religious institutions and appointees are marvellous instruments of conning people into thinking he will be.

Small world, Ann. Me too! I am a Catholic, and I've also been born again. I am one of the luckiest people on earth.
I guess that might offend some people here, (I hope not,) but it's true, none the less.
