Agreed.

Badspot, in case you ban OP for this and are reading this post, he has an alternate account called Glyph_

It's funny, because you were stirring up just as much trouble as he was.  If you don't want to promote this kind of issue, then I would suggest that you stop posting about religion.

He was highlighting the title of the topic when it was called 'Post your religious views Christians are Idiots'.

That doesn't dismiss the fact that he, too, wasn't simply "posting his religious beliefs," but refuting other beliefs.

modern religion is handicapped
agnosticism is the way to go
you can like
believe whatever and stuff
if you want, your god can be a floppy drive
hell yes

[Wynd_Fox]

Agnosticism isn't a religion. Anyway, I believe in an (I think) unnamed faith.

I didn't say it was

no
I didn't

what kinda religion

[Wynd_Fox]

It seemed implied.
The kind that doesn't really think anything is good or bad, per se, since those are inventions of man. I dunno, a friend taught me about it, can't really explain it.
EDIT: Doesn't focus on what happens after death, or how to get into paradise. It says more than anything natural is pure, and so cannot harm the...thing (Universe? World? Basically just existence), and anything unnatural is impure, and has a potential to do harm to it.

Um

I don't really think I was, you might have confused me for Vegetarian Zombie or someone else, because I was pretty much talking about/defending my faith, the only post I can think of in this topic where I may stirred anything at all would be the one you quoted, and that was in response the OP's topic title change.

#1: Churches. Churches are the #1 thing that have ruined religion for me. This is mainly because its boring! Like seriously, why do I have to spend 2 hours sitting in an uncomfortable chair listening to blabber. All they ever talk about is "God is good", but never give us a reason why.
I have 3 hours of church, but each hour is something different. First our is called sacrament meeting where the whole church joins and church news is given, people who have prepared talks, well, talk, and we have sacrament (#3). Hour 2 is Sunday school where we talk about stories from the Bible and the Book of Mormon, and talk about how the Lord can help you/has helped. hour 3 is a variety of things.

#2: Praying. Seriously, probably the most annoying thing christians do. I mean, in my opinion all praying is is just talking to yourself and expecting an answer, which never comes.
When you pray, you pray to God, asking for blessings and help and answers and stuff. If they never come, it's because you don't have faith.

#3: "Blessing food". I guess this could go along with praying, but I feel it deserves another number. Like seriously, nothings worse than going out to eat and getting a huge juicy steak, only to have to bow your head and hold hands while smelling the damned thing. I mean, seriously, when Im hungry I wanna eat my stuff.
Blessing food is like olden day sacrifices. But sacrifices were representing Jesus going to die for us, but he has, so now it represents how he died for us. Food for his flesh, water for his blood.


#5: Knowing that Im not in control of my future. Sometimes in church my pastor says things like "God has a plan, and you're part of it! Before god even created the Heavens and the Earth, he knew what your life was going to be like!" Quite frankly, I like being in control, and not knowing that my life is to go a certain way.
God gave us free agency, which is the choice to choose what we want to do with our lives. He has a plan, but that does not mean that he knows what is going to happen. That is more like Satan's plan. I can explain more about that if you want.


#7: Its impossible for god to exist. I find it hard to believe god exists, i mean, it is literally impossible for someone to be alive sense the beginning of time. I mean, it hurts my head even thinking about it. Something or someone had to create him, and then something/someone had to created. Ill just leave it at that, because its hard to word.
I don't see any supporting factors that God does or does not exist, so one cannot really argue about this.

#8 We must live our lives for god. Now this just pisses me off. Christians say all the time "We must live our lives for god! He sent his son to die for us!" I find it bullstuff. Why would god create us, only for us to worship him forever?
Not live for him, more like live the best you can in the way the Lord has told us to, obey the 10 commandments, all that.

These are basically the views of the Mormon church.

[Night Fox]

obeying most of the ten commandments is okay
most laws were/are based on them

To me, theories sound reasonable, but there's always a chance for magic.

To me, certain dragons are deities.
