hi, i read some of the things you say, and i admire your outlook on life. but im curious to know your opinion on religions. what are your beliefs on life after death? be descriptive, please.
Well, thank you :) This has always been a very difficult subject for me and I’ve never really considered myself to be a very religious person, but when I was young I would pray at night.. I always had my doubts, but I would still pray. A lot of the time I was aware that I was simply talking to myself yet I would keep speaking maybe to provide myself with some comfort or to calm myself down. I think that religion is a lot about comfort, and about letting people be able to sleep at night- to keep them from worrying. I am not a Christian. I refuse to believe in a god who kills, a god who hates what he creates, and a god who would allow such suffering. But the truth is that I don’t know, and maybe that makes me agnostic. But I would prefer not to put a name on it. I exist, and one day I won’t. I have no CLUE as to what will happen to me after I die, maybe one day I will be enlightened. And maybe I won’t. I’d like to think that there is something after this, and that we are not judged by how often we went to church, how many times we helped someone out in order to feel closer to god, to feel as though we are good people.. I want to believe that there is something after this for people who truely did their best to make life better for someone else, not for the sake of theirselves, not to get them a ticket into heaven. But to save someones life. I believe that there is good and bad in everyone and we all have the choice of what we will act on, I believe that we all have the opportunity to change. I believe we are all equal and we all deserve respect and LOVE. I believe in myself, and I believe that I have the strengh to get through whatever obstacles I face and whatever circumstances. I believe that the only way to heal is to heal yourself. I don’t believe that anyone else will do that for you (yes, that includes any deity) and I believe that we are ALL worth something :) I apologize for such a long answer. x x x |
