The devil sent me...Im here to do the devils work.

Not really, I don't really believe in the devil, or his counterpart, jesus.

Mr Dark Journey:

I used to be heavy into very dark stuff, and then one day, I found god. I don't know how, but there he was, waiting for me. Problem was, I could never convince myself that I believed in any of it. I could argue for days, but could I believe what I was saying?...No. Eventually, I started reading things beyond the bible again, and remembered that I still had a mind, and that I was very much a free thinker. My reading ventures led me to Nietzsche and his Beyond Good and Evil and The Anti-Christ books. Goodbye skeleton cross and hello logic. As time went on, my faith faded faster and faster. I started getting into the darker side of life again, something that, while I couldn't deny in totality during my christian living, took a back seat to my paper thin christ like attitude. Now, the dark side of life is getting it's due glory. I can't help it, I am a dark person, I love the night, I live in the night. I am now getting into night magic, but I am just learning, and taking it slow. I consider myself an agnostic satanist, because I believe in the spiritual side of life, but believe that it is impossible to catagorize it. I also believe in most of the philosophies of modern satanism. I know that even the christian religion allows its followers to tap into some spiritual energy, as do any religions that are willing to acknowledge the spiritual world, but I believe that the dogma of religion restricts contact with that spiritual world. I want to eventually be in tune with both the light and dark spiritual world, with an obvious focus on the dark, as that is my natural "god given" energy.

That is where I was and how it led to where I am now.

I once was in the dark, then I found the light, I was blinded and rediscovered the dark, now I am saved.

Now I am here.

There is a question...

If posed a choice of (a) or (b)...

One would be forced to choose!

Even if both answers seem ludicris, one of them must be the right answer, 'else why would the question be posed, eh.

Meanwhile, noone is forcing your hand.

Say.. that you lifted your hand and saw that you may not have considered continuing reading on to find that at the end of options there lies something...

(none of the above)

Although there is a certain duality to what is.. a yin and yang.. male and female.. quite natural occurances as light and dark... there must be such an answer as (both A and B) in such a question as this.

A cyclical process that is, and is greater than the two. Greater than many. Perhaps the time and space that we experience now.. as I see through my flicker as you do now.. as the cause. Of me and you and everyone. All and everything. The process.. more than simply give and take.. question and answer. THE thing...

I have no answers.. simply a willingness to ask...

Why choose an upside down cross as an avatar if you do not believe in Jesus? That, in and of itself, would seem to be an affirmation, even in it's representation as a rejection.

I'm going to #2 pencil in - (other)

"ludicris" is spelled "ludicrous" unless you're talking about a rapper.

Actually, the rapper is "ludacris". Anyone else think that's hilarious?

We have other threads for posting religious discussions. This forum is for posting your answers to the Intro questions. If you cannot find the Intro questions, no doubt you will have difficulty finding out more complex things, like what you believe. Good luck.

Here are the questions, post the answers here in this thread that you already opened (just click on "post reply") :

Seriously, what is with people today?

I'd be irritated if I wasn't so amused.

Oh, and I added you to MSN, D_T.

Then again.. I also find it hilarious that someone used the words 'free-thinker' and 'logic' in the same post as Nietzsche.

Oh, and Savior Pentagasm there is no such thing as 'night magic.' Magic doesn't have a colour or a flavour to it... it is like a knife. It can be used to make a child's lunch in a loving way, or it can be used to stab a hated man through the heart.

Intention is all.

DHD, feel free to add me to MSN.. a word of warning, though. My MSN stays on all the time. If I'm not answering you it isn't because I'm rude, it is usually because I'm elsewhere. Elsewhere and rude.

I already added you. Perhaps it didn't work?

All right, I'm emailing you my MSN ID.

Oh, I should've mentioned that I was actually at work where I can get access to this site and a few others, but not my email or MSN.

But now I am at home. And you know that because I am talking with you on MSN.

So your bible has changed to Lord of the Rings?

Magic is bullshit.
