I've decided that I'm changing my religion to Asatru.....  :tongue:

Amen, brother. You kind of get to make it up as you go. The only reason I never got into Wicca is the last thing I need is another Gawd dammed woman telling me what to do. At least with Asatru we can pretend the god is a dude.

Roman Catholic.  I fell away for a while, but married a Missouri Synod Lutheran, who wanted me to go back to the Catholic Church.  Our daughter was baptized a Catholic.  I sing in my church's choir and cantor for them.

Was born and raised Catholic; was a nondenominational Protestant for a year in my late 'teens while I explored all the Protestant churches I could, came back to the Catholic Church, lapsed in my mid-late '20s following some major personal upheavals and began a three-four year exploration of paganism (mostly Asatru, but also Wicca, Satanism, and too many to even want to try remembering), Buddhism, atheism, and agnosticism, ended up frustrated beyond words with all of them, and came back to the Catholic Church yet again.

Though I still admire Deism (mayhap a little more than I should), despite my recent past. It's the only other thing I could be, were I not Catholic.

I was christened in the Church of England, however after we came to the states, we became pretty much non-practicing Christians. After 5 years in a Catholic school(4th to 8th grade) got sick of the hell and brimstone talk and blatent hypocripsy from the nuns, went to public hs. Today I am a non practicing Christian.

Nice to know.
I am sorry. I was quoting Scripture. Psalms 14:1
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God"

That is not your fault. You think "christians" are a sorry lot, but yet..you think the muslims are to be respected right??? RIGHT????? Do you know what a Dhimmi is? ....well you are a DHIMMI

In your PC world, you can't criticize them on your forums, right?

They'll chop off your head if you disagree with them. Wait! That's not Christianity. That's some other religion.

They have a plan for taking over the world and forcing everyone to become Christians...OOPS!
No, wait!  that's not it. That's another religion.

Well, I'm sure they believe that if they die fighting to spread Christianity, they'll get seventy virgins, right? No, It's that other religion I can't think of the name. Thinking..... :whistling:

You're assuming a lot. Just because I'm Atheist means I hate Christians and I like Muslims? I don't think so.

I have problems with extreme ends on both groups yet I have no problem with the average person from each. Every group will have it's radicals Islam just seems to have more. I have no problem saying good and bad things about either.

I find it amusing you assume so very much about me.



Also I knew you were referring to Psalms 14:1, I get it quoted to me quite a lot.

I'm Agnostic.

"Officially" I'm a member of the United Church of Christ.

Personally, I don't believe in organized religions, and people should find God, through their own experiences.

My faith believes that if any religion or faith causes harm to humanity, then we are better off without that belief. It is better to have no God then to harm others in His/ Her name.

We believe that If a family has 4 male children and 1 female, the female should be educated first.

We believe that there is just one GOD and and because of different languages God has many names, God is God regardless of the name we use for Him/Her.

We believe that every day Science shows that there is a GOD, and Thy will be done.

We believe in researching other faith to find parallels with ours. We believe any house of GOD be it a grass hut to a huge Tabernacle is to be respected.

We believe the Muslim faith to be valid, it is not the faith but the false prophets that make the faith in some cases worthless. Muhammad was a a pervert and disgraced the faith.

We except Jesus and follow the history of his---Gods people---  his ancestors the Jews.

We believe that Tradition and faith in GOD are two different things.

Strange we are as we insist our members become educated in the faiths of others, to understand why and how religion itself came about.

Most impotent we believe that the life of humans are like the wings of a dove, one wing is science the other religion.  If one wing is lost then mankind will die.
