Why are you your Religion?

[Tekania]

Atheism alone cannot be "extreme" because it means a lack of belief in God. Is lacking belief in unicorns extreme?

Only if the unicorn is doing you and you still lack belief in him...

Why do I have this image of some guy casually walking into an office while getting humped by a unicorn while everyone around him is gawking..... and he's just sipping his coffee and looking at the days reports?

[Reggae Magmia]

No I don't hate homosexuals. Actually, Rastafari helped me deal with my previous slight-homophobia.
I don't know about being Jews. It's still something I'm researching. My current position is no I do not think we're Jews.

It's an abbreviation of His Imperial Majesty, a reference to Haile Selassie I.

Hmm, I thought they disliked homosexuals.

Sounds like fun.

Some do, but that's not part of Rastafari. A true Rasta has love for all humanity.
We're against homosexuality but we're not supposed to judge, because only The Most High can judge. We are only supposed to love.

Or in other words, "One Love".

[Crusifius]

Who are you to say that?

You. Your bullshit story isn't fooling anyone.

By whom it is bullshit?

I can also tell you are telling bullshit stories, hell, I can even claim that physics is bullshit, yet it makes no sense, just as your claims.

Because you're a twisted fucker...

Go ahead, claim physics is bullshit... We'll just laugh at you some more.

Biology.
Chemistry.
Physics.
Mathematics.
Ah, fuck it. I'm not going to list everything.

I'd like you to just answer this one simple question.

Is it more likely that your mother saw your long-dead great grandfather and your father identified him based off of what your mother could recall and relay to him, or that your father was mistaken?

I love it how people can claim that the sciences are bullshit when scholars put so much time, sweat, and blood into figuring them out.

I like the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, but think that all religions are bullshit.

[Czechanada]

Well, there is worth in all teachings of religions out there, but they equally have outdated rules as well.

You realize he based some of them of Judaism right?

I didn't mean that there teachings are bad, I just hate the idea of organized religion. I'd rather not have to be told what to believe.

Don't forget the Buddhism and Zoroastrianism.

Haven't we already had this conversation?

[Great American Brotherhood]

I wasn't always my religion. Up until I was about 10, I was atheist. I honestly didn't believe in God. But, something happened, and I began to believe. Within about 2 years, I considered myself as Christian, and in July of that year, I was baptised in the name of God. I am my religion not because it makes sense, but because it is illogical and a contradiction to many things and, in some cases, to itself.

...so you follow your religion because it's contradictory and illogical?

The what?

Something like it.

[Ordya]

Something like it.

Then why bring it up again?

[Menassa]

Something like it.

Then why bring it up again?

Because it's not the same.

[Ordya]

Because it's not the same.

Why do you think I care?

[Blouman Empire]

Being on NSG made me think more about my religion and to do further reading on it, I can say because of that I became much more devoted to my religion and gained a greater sense of faith whereas before I was wavering.

[Menassa]

Because it's not the same.

Why do you think I care?

You say you like Jesus minus religion but some of Jesus's teachings were taken from another religion... like 'love your neighbor as yourself'
