That shouldn't be very hard, I mean, it's almost 500 years old, how fast can it run?

And yet it seems to be evolving faster and faster. Not that I mind much, though.

He doesn't belive in Allah. Doesn't believe in Vishnu. Doesn't believe in Yahweh. Doesn't believe in any of those religions. How ever, he does believe that there is a god, or a deity. He's not Christian, Muslim, Hinduist, or religiously Jewish. He's just a theist.

I had a friend who was a Norse pagan. He was, unfortunately, the kind of guy who runs his mouth about loyalty and honor and stabs you in the back later, but yeah, Norse pagan. The only one I've met, actually.

I consider pagan faith interesting, because every god can represent things you prefer or despise, so you can literally choose your idol to worship or hate.

And worship god is cooler than worship some mortal, often drunk or drugged human celebrity, who can dissapoint you anytime :p

Besides, christians I know are so annoying...they should all bow to the Old Gods again. :roll: I bet there would be more fun and less prude stuff.

Not wise at all, especially in concern to the fact it is a direct attack at the user.

I'd rather not involve the ones whose names must not be mentioned.

I'm an atheist and Buddhist (they are not mutually exclusive). I also follow Hellenismos/Hellenic polytheism, which can be compatible with atheism (despite what others might say).
So, I guess I'm Greco-Buddhist.

I had a friend who was an Odinist. Cool guy.
Had this little golden sword on a chian around his neck, I mean like an inch long, working scabbard real sword just tiny.
I asked him about it. He said "Im always armed, so when I die, I die armed and in battle."
"Battle?"
"Hey, you can do battle with cancer."

Good guy though, also he looked like a modern day Odinist, clean cut, very fit, his hair was the only time in my 40 years on earth I have seen a man with real golden colored hair. He was the epitome of stereotypical modern Norseman.

Side note to mine, Agnostic Theist is different than Agnostic Atheist. Just a slight one though, as the reasoning behind them are the same.
