Yes, but not in a fanatic way.
I mean, I believe but I can accept and even understand why other people don't.
And I think a little different about a few things than the people of the church do.

Emphatically no. I'm a firm believer that man made god in his own image.

Don't capitalize things like that. It implies importance.

I think overall, people who are religious are extremely fearful & don't understand that they have the power within themselves to know right from wrong. So they believe in a bunch of stories (which basically is heresay) that have been passed down from generation to generation, empowering their own personal weaknesses & trusting something completely unknown & unqualified instead of themselves.

It's also a nice little way to get out of claiming responsibility for yourself.






Let me end this with a bunch of *IMHO*s so people don't start lighting crosses on my front lawn.

I do believe in 1 God ( Jesus ) 100%. I've witnessed things ( which I won't go into ) that has only cemented my beliefs.

There's no god. "We" made "him" up, because we're aware of our mortality. Simple as that.

I think there is more to life than we can see. There is no proof either way, but I do believe that there is an afterlife. I definitely do believe in spirits. I never understood why people were so against GOD. Even if a higher power didn't exist, the thought provides comfort for many. Unless you can say 100 percent in either direction, there is no reason to shoot down others beliefs.

I don't know. I don't argue about it with people since there is not enough evidence either way.
