Religion

To clear something up about Agnosticism Toph. Because just being agnostic does not properly "label you". In truth agnosticism isn't a religious background.:

Accidental double post. Please ignore.

 

oh, ok. I just seem to find you as more of a person I agree with, but i was wondering if you believed in a religion or god, because you seemed like you didnt. Well, my only suggestion is to read up on some stuff somtime. Religion can be very interesting, if you look deep enough. I always say, who needs fantasy games and books about Dragons when you have religious mythology and ancient texts. It really is like a video game or a book, some of the stories. If all that is up your alley, then maybe reading it for fun woulnd't be to much of a hassle for yah. Just a suggestion, like a good Budhist teacher, no expectation *bow*, lol. But really, its all about logic. If you have a good sense of logic, its easy to tell what is right from what is wrong.

 

Well, which is your preference? I myself am an Agnostic Theist because I am not against the idea that there may be a god, but I am waiting on proof.

If you're not particularly for there being a god but you are willing to accept one should you be proved wrong you would be an Agnostic Atheist.

 

Well, thats the borderline truth. Well, I'm just saying in my own opinion, that we accept different truths. I'm a Christian but I'm kinda waiting for some proof also. SO I'm agreeing with Haresuno on this one.

 

Well thats ok Toph. People are like that. There are those who believe with proof and there are those who believe without proof. Its basically just human nature.

 

Let me ask you (no this is not a weird question, I'm just going to point something out to you that maybe you've never thought of) when you think of god, what do you think of? What would clasify god if someone could PROOVE that there is a god? Please answer directly, adjectives would be great, trust me on this, I'm gonna point something out after you answer.

 

a sorry for the 2 post, and i didn't think my link would really work cuz they dont. (to subject)
oh oh me HEY MYTHIRL PICK ME- well if someone could prove god was really then the holy wars would go overload, people would want to know which religion was the right one so they would live a life in hell, ppl would be having debates like were having, the bible would(if this god said something big) would have to be changed, some ppl wouldn't know what to think, atheist might (not hating them or trying to be mean) think it's fake or some would maybe go with it now that they have proof. there would be conflict on which religion was the one you should follow, the super pope leader in Europe would be making big meetings for the world and so would every other religion leader if that religion has one, some would say will dooms0day is here, some would kill themselves, ppl would be scared of what there doing because he's "he sees you when you sleeping, he knows when you awake" thing. and after the five stages of denial , ppl would be yelling at god for answer or the truth scientist would want to know more about evryhting, some ppl would go to lenghts to bribe god to be on there side( i mean you have GOD!? WHAT BETTER WEAPON THEN THAT?) and then ppl would excuse him for leaving us in the dakr with only a book and faith and letting us die, and he would say i gave you free will and this is what you did, i have done nothing. and then soon devil comes up big army Jesus comes big army holy war in new york dooms day dead ppl, devils dead Jesus won, game over god took you king, peace on earth.

WELL that was long, what ya think?

 

I wasn't asking if God came down to earth and showed himself, I was asking for Toph's discription of god for her own personal faith. Your post had nothing to do what I was talking about, but it did bring up many good points and I thought ,even for random crap, it was cool and interesting, haha.

 

. . . . Didn't I tell you to use proper spelling and grammar, AM? I feel like I need to bleach my eyes after attempting to read that.

 

haha, funny but lets stay on topic.

 

I think all of you should read a book called the Lost Symbol. Real good & is religious in a way. Still, I was disturbed when I read something about the characters saying that humans are equal to God in power or something. Might have read it wrong, but the part about having "The Kingdom within you." is true. Also, why is it that each religion never do come together?

 

Mmmmmmmm, I agree with you, and basically I BELIEVE IN THAT GOD. But the material you presented did not give me enough of what I wanted to point something out.

God represented in most religions is all powerful, omnipotent, and is everlasting, correct? Now, let me ask you this question, for it is more direct. What else in the world portrays all three qualities? You're probably thinking "What the hell are you talking about Mythril, there is nothing in this universe that posses all of those qualities, you and I both now that", right? But that is in correct. You see the truth is right under your nose. The answer....is numbers. Our lives are surrounded by numbers, numbers have always existed and they exist everywhere. There is no were without numbers.

 

pk wtf is that supossed to me mthyril? cuz i dont understand.
(sorry for the spelling, was in a hurry.)

 

math is like hidden religion
numbers are like the real god.

 

-___- Oh no. A Math god. Tell me Mythril, which religion are you really a part of? I'm being serious about this because you always talk about every religion & go along with all of them except christianity only because of some people who did some things in your life during your christian life.
