I worship my built 6bolt engine, 20g, GSX eclipse and it is telling me to turn up the boost after I have waisted so much money on supporting mods. She has spoken too me in the past, but now the voices are more often. Been really difficult to concentrate. I am luthern too. :lol:
well i grew up lutheran but didn't go to church alot. A bit before i got married i decided to convert to catholicism. so now i'm catholic. but now i'm also divorced so i go to church even less. i guess i believe in some of the catholic teachings but i don't think i need to go to church to believe what i believe.

I'm agnostic.I don't disbelieve in "god", but as of now, the evidence against, far outweighs the evidence for.I think any theistic religion is "bad" and the only "good" religions(if you can even call them religions) are the non-theistic ones such as Buddhism and Taoism.They, by nature of their doctrines, are the only ones that truely are peaceful, moral, and inherently prevent violence(and murderous extremists) in their own name.
Amen, same boat as you.

I don't have a religion, but I'm not Atheist. I believe that there is some higher power. Most of my beliefs are based in Bushido (yes, the Samurai religion) and Bhuddism. I respect all religions, and have a tendency to get pissed at "internet atheists" who are atheist because it's the cool thing to do, or anyone who insults a religion.
I have too much time to think on things.

I'm sorta between religions right now. I grew up as episcipilian (not spelled right) but ever since I moved away from the cities about 8 years ago I stopped going until I met my soon-to-be wife (no cracks Matt) who is hard core lutheren,
I havn't yet discovered all of my beliefs yet, but I would like to think that maybe there is some type of higher being who is helping us through our existance
(read the book series "encarnations of immortality" by Piers Anthony, It gives a really cool take on the whole religion thing)

It doesn't sound like you know much about bushido or buddhism.

Not to start shit, but just stating my opinion of it. I really can say for myself that I have no religion nor am going to consider myself anything, athiest, or any kind of label. I personally think religion is one's reason for living. There might be a higher power and we may be the dolls of it all, but we will never know. With that being said, just live your lives to its fullest and do what you want before you move on to the non living side of life.

What makes you say that? I said most of my beliefs. Not all. If you're talking about the getting pissed off part, then that's not part of my belief. Everyone gets pissed, no matter who you are.

What are you talking about? My comment was totally unrelated to anything previously posted. The "not to start shit" starting of the comment was just a warning to those reading my post because when I told my religious friend that I thought religion was a reason for living/being here, he got defensive. :stick:
