and if so, why? ps - i don't want this thread to descend into a bigoted flamewar; everyone is entitled to their own beliefs, but there's nothing wrong with debating them courteously. |

I believe in God and the supernatural. Normally these things turn into religion bashing. |

no they don't. they inevitably turn into a bigoted flamewar from a myriad of different perspectives where no one is ever satisfied and someone insists that their beliefs alone have been targetted. you'll find as many opposing views here as members. |

that's just what God makes you think you believe. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

they do usually, but I'd really prefer for this one not to. i'm really more interested in why people believe in what they believe as opposed to conducting a survey of the board's beliefs. however since that leaves people open to shit like "that's a bullshit reason to believe in god because blah blah blah insert the aggressive put-down of your choice here" i can understand if people don't want to justify their beliefs. I still hold out hope though. |

you said "members". not a lot of gods will like that. oh now I said ruddy "members"! and I said it again. fucking hell. |

ruddy. |

Ok then: I believe in God, because I have had profound religious experiences within a religious context (although I wouldn't call myself religious) and I believe in the supernatrual because I have had an experience with a spiritual entity. Now everybody is going to think I am insane (I guess I am in a way) but I can't help what I experience. I happened to me, I was lucky I guess. |

Specific Goddesses: Some important ones are: Freya (aka Freyja) is the Goddess of love, beauty and sexuality, and perhaps a dozen other attributes. She leads the Valkyries who take the souls of slain soldiers to Valhalla (Odin's great hall). Frigg is Odin's wife. Her name has been secularized to a slang term which refers to sexual intercourse. She is the patroness of the household and of married women. Skadi is the Goddess of independence, death, hunting and skiing. Scandinavia was named after her; the English words shadow, skullduggery and shade came from her name. Ostara, is a Goddess of fertility who is celebrated at the time of the Spring equinox. She was known by the Saxons as Eostre, the Goddess of Spring, from whom we have derived the word Easter. Ostara's symbols are the hare and the egg. |

In the Ray of Creation, each level of "World" is assigned a number corresponding to the number of forces acting in that world. In the Absolute, the three forces constitute one whole: the single and independent Will of the Absolute. The Absolute is therefore assigned the number 1. In a world of the second order (All Galaxies), the three forces are divided; these worlds are therefore assigned the number 3. Thereafter, as we descend the Ray of Creation, each lower world inherits all the forces from all the worlds above it as far as World 3, and in addition, having been created, it manifests three forces of its own. Thus, in worlds of the third order there are (3)+3 = 6 forces; in worlds of the fourth order there are (3+6)+3 = 12 forces, and so on... The number of forces in each world indicates the number of orders of laws to which the given world is subject. The fewer laws there are in a given world, the nearer it is to the Will of the Absolute. The immediate Will of the Absolute reaches only as far as World 3; it does not reach World 6. In World 3 the Absolute creates, as it were, a general plan of the Universe, which is then further developed mechanically. The Will of the Absolute cannot manifest itself in subsequent worlds apart from this plan, and in manifesting itself in accordance with this plan, it takes the form of mechanical laws. |

|
excuse me? are you making fun of someone else's religion now? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No, because claims of Allah being a moon god have been falseified and are, apparently, ridiculous. I was actually making fun of people who blindly "refute" Islam. Although I am not a muslim and never will be. I think. |

i am certain i don't know what i'm talking about either! Will you join me for some lovely orange pekoe and cucumber sandwiches? I've cut the crusts off. i don't know what pekoe is and won't bother to look it up before posting a reply, so my answer is a gracious yes and i'll bring the tea and the run-on sentences. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Orange pekoe is simply regular black tea, I'm afraid - nothing exotic. So you needn't bring tea, my good man. I've already seen to that. The run on sentences though - that sounds delightful! qrter: he will do nothing of the sort. |

||||||||

i've never been really religious, and although i don't believe in nor absolutely reject any hypothesis for this kind of things (and don't want to *believe* in any), i'd really hate that "almighty god/watching everything/heaven/hell" one. if you think of it, it's just really fucked up (and in my opinion terribly unfair). i'd rather not exist at all than live in a world with this (actually i think no life after death at all would be the best). and religion has resulted in some good things i guess, but some horrid ones as well... messages of love and tolerance, okay, if you take it the good way; but look at religious fanatics, crusades, etc. religions are not all evil, but they're dangerous. |
