| Religion, well.... I like to call it my beliefs... is all about God! God is so important to me because He has done SOOOO much for my family and I! It feels so wonderful knowing there's something, someone, always there watching over you. It feels wonderful being taken care of and taking all of you pain away. Personally, I don't know if it's because I am super sensitive, I am always going through something. Whether big or small, it doesn't matter, it's always something; and when I go to church, I leave feeling so relieved and way better! Unfortunately, my boyfriend doesn't believe in Him. (So he says) And I am most definitely NOT forcing him to anything, but it would be the most amazing thing if he did believe in God. Because God is so wonderful. But who knows what might happen? ;D So there it is... How about you my friends?? | |

| Well, I used to be catholic, but after I got into church and see all that stuff that I didn't really believed, I just decided to not have any religion. I still believe in God, as a superior entity that humans will never understand. So i'm almost an Agnostic or something like that. I belive in God, but I don't believe in religion. I don't believe in the human being. I believe He can do a lot for us, but we have to help ourselves in the first place :) I really hope everyone goes on saying your own beliefs without disrespect or undervalue the other's opinion. Cause everytime this subject comes up, people don't understand that other people can think different. But I believe we have only good fellows here | |

| Technically I'm Catholic (well, half Catholic, half Christian Orthodox), but I don't believe in religion. People have been mistaking "God" for religion too much - which I find disgusting and one of the main reasons this world is going downhill. Religion is so obviously fabricated by mankind to control and brainwash and divert us from the main idea of God. There are upsides to it, of course, it's just my strong belief that everything related to religion and government is WRONG. XD It's just that people confuse faith for religion all the time which really pisses me off. People who don't believe in anything are such a myth though. There is NO ONE in this world who doesn't believe in something, and even if there were, they'd be completely fucked up and their life would have no meaning. Faith is one of the most important things a person needs to have.
I believe that you create your own God, that he's living IN you. If there's no God in you, there sure as hell ain't no God up in the sky or in the whole universe. There are so many HORRIBLE people to claim to believe in God and use God to justify their sin because religion told them it's fine. If people only realized that there's nothing more powerful than faith and strong will, that'd be just lovely. Oh, and also, I believe in our subconscious mind. I really think it's our tiniest thoughts that create our world and the world around us. | |

| I don't believe in any sort of superior being in the sky or whatever. It's a theory unless it's been proven, and this is one theory I choose not to believe because it makes no sense to me. | |

| So cool to see many believes in here, different opinions and points of view :) I'm Pagan, that is, my religion/life philosophy and belief in God(s) are based on nature. I have never had a religion per say until some years ago. But I have always believed in God and talked to God and stuff. - channy wrote:

| Actually, I've always thought this 'mind-power' thing is very strong. I think people take thoughts for granted most times, like it's something banal, which is not. Our mind can do great or terrible things with its power, and I'm not saying that's something supernatural or anything, but I believe there are all kinds of energy that come out of us. | |

| I believe A LOT in energy, Andy... that energy that someone can pass to you is strong. IDK if that makes sense to you, but when I'm with a person and I feel that her energy is bad like she's depressed or something, I try my best to change that. Sometimes it works, personally I think I have a good energy. But sometimes people have to change it for themselves. Everything that you're feeling, will be shown in the energy you transmit to other people around you. IDK if that's what you meant when you wrote you comment, but in anycase it reminded me of this other thing I believe haha xD | |

| I agree. And energy can be created by us, wether is in our minds and thoughts, words or actions, by nature and natural things, like environment too. What sometimes can be interpreted as "supernatural" is actually very natural... we just aren't used to experience some kinds of things very often and people almost always fear or find strange things they don't understand. About energy, I also believe it can change people and things in a very powerful way. | |

| I guess I'm an Agnostic... I don't really know whether I believe in a god or not... I went to church regularly for a few years and I saw things such as healings that I just can't explain... But as I got older I really began to doubt their teachings and found some of their beliefs just judgemental and hateful... I'm generally very skeptical and don't believe in things unless I can see them, but like I've said some things I just can't explain. | |
