What instruction manual do you prefer?

And have you read them all? How do you know you don't like it if you've never tried it?

As I've said, I am Pagan. I've read the Bible, and I've studied the other major religions, even own a copy of the Koran. Paganism is the only one that felt right to me.

I do prefer not to discuss my faith/belief in public, for it is not mainstream. Let me just say that I've studied various directions, and certain ones seemed to fit better than others.

I am by no means an orthodox Christian, but I do admire and respect those with the deepest faith in their God. I still wander as I try to find the spiritual path that is right for me.


While I do have a set belief, being merely human, I cannot always uphold it. But I try my best.

I'm Christian in the simplest description of the word... but by no means am I a traditional one .

And I have spent time searching out my own and other religions. I went through a phase from about 16-19 where I stopped attending my church and took my time looking around at other religions. After that point I realized that nothing made as much sense or felt as right as what I am now.

... no, I said don't worship religions....

you can't worship a religion... that makes no sense.

And some people think that following the lessons is a form of worship.

Basically "Follower of Christ" is a title that would be appropriate. You could say Christian, but that has a lot of negative connotations these days. I can't tell you how many friends have told me I'm a bad person because of the Crusades.

I am a strong athiest(same as rest of my family). I believe religion was created by people to controll other people. Many people turn to it because they cannot handle thinking that the fact is there is no "point" if you will, of life; it conforts them. However more and more people, as science explains more things and people have more freedom of religion, say to hell with religion and become athiest. One day I think the majority of the western and Europian countries will become athiests. I do, however, respect all religions and do not insult them, well TRY to insult them. If I were to choose a religen it would be Juddaism because it came before Christianity and I believe Christianity focases too much on Christ and not on God.

What I really love is when atheists (and even my friends do this) tell me what I'm thinking. Like, "you're just saying that because your parents want you to believe that," as if they can read my mind.

yeah.

I pretty much left the church I currently go to for several years. I ended up going back because I personally thought the answers I got made the most sense. I didn't go back to please my parents.

I am a strong Christian, southern Baptist to be precise. However, I believe all denominations are the same as long as one thing is the focus: Jesus' sacrifice being the only way into heaven. Oh, and one more thing. If I ever argue with anyone about religion, it's not because I want to insult other religions. I respect your beliefs, but I am not afraid to try and win you over to mine. Don't worry, though. If you don't want to become a Christian, that's your choice. I just do not believe it is the right one.
