What's your faith? (Poll)

[leavingthesoultrap]

Optionally, what was your spiritual journey?
I was raised Christian but rejected the religion very early on. Then I went through a period of atheism as a teenager and later started to look into New age. Nowadays I resonate mostly with Buddhism.

 

[F&Inside]

Other I guess.
I don't really know where to classify my current beliefs. I really believe that we can transmit energies to each other, among other things.

 

[Tokugawa_Yoshinobu]

I'm agnostic and not really all that attached to any strong position on religion either way.

 

[ijustwishtodie]

Atheist. All religions are bs

 

[FuneralCry]

I don't believe in anything related to religion, to me it's all completely fictional and invented by humans who were unable to accept how meaningless existence truly is.

 

[R_N]

I would say an atheist because I don't believe in fantasy part of religions. But I find some religious practices beneficial.

 

[d3ad]

Atheist

 

[Dliena]

Agnostic for me I think but I have had this fascination with theistic satanism/black magic for a while.

 

[kawaiiphantom]

Agnostic, i feel like anything is possible and I have a very hard time forming opinions on things sometimes

 

[sserafim]

I'm atheist born and raised but I believe in reincarnation (prison planet theory) and other things

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

Swagnostics in the house.

I believe that nothing I believe could truly encapsulate the true nature of this world, its purpose, and its origins.

Wdym? How so? Like auras? I heard that each person has an aura which is their personal electromagnetic/energy field, and that they have different colors. I tried to see mine but wasn't able to. Also, what kind of other things?

I heard that black magic is bad and that you shouldn't do it. Could you elaborate on theistic satanism? It sounds interesting

 

[Adûnâi]

Voted "pagan" because why not. I worship Kim Jong Un and Jewish demons. (It's not a phase, mom!)

Yes, I know about that and I also give importance to karma.
Well, due to my own experiences I had no choice but to be spiritual, I believe that surrounded by people who wish us well, they can transmit their positivity above the merely earthly, their passion and their positive projection towards us. It doesn't matter if they have serious problems like us, if their intention with you is good and sincere.

btw I also had experiences with black magic and negative things, bad entities, a rather dark topics

 

[hikikomorizombie]

sometimes i wish i could believe in one of the many religions ppl dedicate their entire lives & selves to; just to know what it's like to feel the comfort/peace that comes w believing there's a utopia waiting for u in the afterlifealong w the purpose + meaning that believing in a God gives u & ur life.

unfortunately my need for logic>everything else will always trump that. + i think there's smthg v depressing abt needing to delude yourself/be willfully ignorant in order to keep living. also v depressing when some1 detests their life or is in incomprehensible pain, yet they can't free themselves from it bc they fear the punishment that doing so would bring them from their God.

 

[Ambivalent1]

Raised christian. Religion is bad for people if they're mentally ill. As an adult, I pushed away from it and have studied it enough that I can refute it all. Unfortunately, I don't feel much better. Religion really does infuse life with added purpose.

So the Theistic Satanism is like an actual belief of Satan to be real and benevolent unlike in Christianity where he is viewed as evil
while LeVeyan Satanism doesn't really believe in any supernatural anything and is basically mostly just atheism in a fancy costume.
ofc I'm not a complete expert on this so you should prob do your own research into this as well but it has intrigued me for long while the idea that God is the actual evil one while Satan is actually good.

 

[Malaria]

I used to be a Deist, then agnostic, now I'm an atheist. I tried believing in a god, but I just can't. More power to you if you do, though.

 

[LifeIsCrazyNemb]

Atheist 95% of my life due to education background + life circunstance + Richard Dawkins' influence

 

[ARW3N]

"When I was a child (Catholic), I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man (atheist), I put away childish (religious) things" (I Corinthians 13:11).

 

[xulam]

I think I am an atheist but saying it makes me guilty, so I settle for agnostic. I studied in a religious school as a kid and I always saw the bible as a fiction book. I tried a lot of religions: presbyterian, catholic, spiritualist, pentecostalism, wicca and probably more, but it makes me feel bad and it gives me a bitter feeling

 

[yellowjester]

I want to be a Buddhist but I lack devotion.
