Ah, I posted just that in my introduction thread as well. =) And welcome to G.Net if I have not said so already.

I am without a religion, and I do build my own beliefs. Actually, I don't really hold beliefs, but moreso I hold possibilities. The only thing I truly believe is that just about anything is possible when it comes to religion, as most of my "beliefs" are contradictory because of the way I feel and think. I am complex about such things, and I have actually ruined or hurt friendships over it.
Agnosticism can be oh so difficult.

I like your idea, Jayden.
I am an agnostic, and occasionally jump around on the subject to what ever suits me at that particular moment.
Jilli you have your moments of asshole-ism.

Oh, I have many satanic friends who are a pleasure to be around. None of them are part of the church though. They just follow the Doctors teachings. I would say that the majority are jerks, but there are a good amount of cool satanists.

Why thank you. Ya, self-belief is my end-all solution. Organized religion inevitably leads to corruption and omg-bad-stuff.

Yes, I know. That's why I only said you have your moments.

Bleed rebelion - your email doesn't show up. I'm a Satanist aswell, and a scholar of religion. If you wish, you may contact me at minyaliel (a) gmail .com (without the spaces, of course).

Sometimes it's easier to understand things when it's explained to the person directly rather than being researched. I know there are some things that I have researched, yet I had a difficult time grasping until someone else came along and explained it differently.

Becky, reading before you post is like swallowing before you speak: it's easier to make sense of things that way
But I agree. I always do my own research before I ask questions.

I can almost see the fnords, if I squint really hard. But there aren't any fnords, so how can I almost see them?
