Age and Religion

Obviously Muslims are only brown folk.


Nope. No such thing as a White Muslim.

Next you'll be telling me there are brown Christians, how droll!

Because people are saying that they decided that god did not exist. Considering this thread is asking for your age, and your religion, atheists have no place here, do they?

Actually the question of the OP was:

So I'm wondering, how old were you when you first started to understand your own religious beliefs?

If you had actually read the OP you would know this.

1) Because people are saying that they decided that god did not exist. Considering this thread is asking for your age, and your religion, atheists have no place here, do they?

It's for stating your religion (or lack thereof) and age at which you came to your decision. Not for debating their merits.

2) It's ironic because, in islamic countries, women are not allowed to serve as a police officer, drive, learn or generally anything that might lead them to believe that they are being oppressed. That a white (Infidel, to them) woman (whom they oppress and allow no voice, not even allowing them to show their face) would put four bullets into his torso, at point blank range, where he HAD to have seen her, is simply karma at it's best.

You don't know anything about Islam, do you? FYI, not all Islamic countries are like Saudi Arabia.

Police Officers who are women: Jordan: http://www.photius.com/countries/jordan ... orces.html

Do I need to provide more?

Women who drive:

Learn? Understanding that they are being repressed? That's just ridiculous.

An infidel makes no reference to skin colour. And people in the Middle East (gasp) are actually white too.

It's parallel to a single jew defeating hitler.

No not really.

That was sarcasm, friend, from me and RLC anyway...

Aparrently, most of you guys realized your beliefs at about my age. So hopefully, I will make a descision soon. I'm actually leaning strongly to Celtic Paganism at the current time, and I've kinda been going back and forth between agnostic theism and Paganism since I was 15. However if anyone asks, I'll tell them I'm an agnostic theist. But I'm just a kid, so it could change dramatically. I mean, a year ago, I was a Liberal Democrat, so . . .

Does anyone else notice that Christianity doesn't make any since as a religion that split from Judaism? In the Old Testament, God was only for the Jews and anyone who even looked at the Jews funny were smited (the Egyptians are a good example); God also sent everyone to a hell (Sheol). Then, he comes down as Jesus, preaches being NICE, says that he is for ALL people (not just the Jews), and creates a heaven. WTF?

Has anyone noticed that Celtic Paganism doesn't make much sense either? Spirits in inanimate objects? WTF?

No, he's saying that Christianity doesnt make much...Since as a religion they split from Judaism, and God apparently contradicts himself...

Im not sure how that translates to how much they make, but, whatever,

Actually, the spirits in objects don't belong to those objects, they just are in them. But animals (including humans) have their own spirits.

Which makes no sense and there's no evidence to support this. So before you go condemning Christianity for it's logical fallacies, reflect upon the fallacies of what you believe in.

[Heaven Hieghts]

Last year or so, (I was thirteen) is when I found a religion that suited me. When I heard of it and its beliefs I was already thinking that exact same way just with out a name so I immediately adopted it.

One of the things that attracted me to Celtic Paganism is their belief that sprits are everywhere. It would explain all the ghost sightings. I myself have had wierd experiances: noises, music with no source, screaming, growling, people talking to me, scratching, etc. Plus, I think that when I was a small child, I actually saw them. And I'm not crazy, others have heard them at the same time I did. So their belief that spirits/ghosts are everywhere makes sence.

Also, I like to bring this up: Did you know that there is actually a church for atheists/agnostics/humanists, Pagans, Wiccans, New Age believers, and Chrisitans/Jews/Hindus/Budhists that don't follow tradistional beliefs, etc? The Unitarian Universalists. They are "united in the search for meaning and truth." Basically, it's people who don't have normal religious beleifs comming together. I just think it's interesting.

[Wrangley]

I was 11 when i started to see how absurd religion was....

[ChengISao]

Going on *cough* decades now, and I'm still trying to figure out my beliefs. It's hell weeding through all the lies.
