    Default position

    I'm really not that smart. I just have a deep-rooted interest in religion and theology and I don't accept any religion, or theological belief, blindly. Not even Earthseed. In fact, I'm starting to realize that my theology is more grounded in Realism rather than Earthseed or process theology...

    Am I a Pantheist?

    Pantheism is not a religion. There is no associated creed involved to becoming a pantheist. You either are or you're not a pantheist. There are four main types of pantheism. Standard pantheism, pandeism, panentheism and panendeism. I will explain to you each one and then you can make your mind...

    Canada's C-11 Bill, the Online Streaming Act, Becomes a Law, So What Does the Average Canadian Think of It?

    My best friend is from Canada but doesn't get too involved in politics. In fact, we almost never talk about politics, whether generally, Canadian or American. I'm just curious though what Canadian RF users think of this law. It seems like when this law is put into affect big Canadian government...

    I would presume that since God is all-powerful, all-knowing, and so on, God could Himself use ways to communicate with us that only each individual him or herself understands, and indeed this actually does happen. Of course there are Messengers, or Prophets, of God that figure out ways to...

    Shopping for Religion

    There's actually a way when using the Select Smart version to actually filter out non-Christian religions for your results. So you're correct, they really do stress Christianity and several different Christian sects and denominations due to its popularity. I made my own quiz from a website...

    What are your reasons for believing?

    When I had my epiphany at the age of 14 while walking home from school I realized that the changes we bring forth in our lives allow us to raise or lower our divinity, which ultimately lead me to believe now that God is reality. I believe this because my medications have reverted my brain back...

    Which is more likely to change?

    Great question! I would say religious, because I'm always finding new ways of expressing my belief and devotion to God. I have two tattoos to reflect my belief in God, an infinity tattoo and a wedding ring tattoo on my wrist and left-hand accordingly, and my theology, unless unmedicated, will...

    The Sum of Awe's search for love and confidence

    The last part of the quote isn't true for me. I often think about the people I knew when I was younger, although, like 95% of is fondness and part of my reflecting and reminiscing, only like 5% is negative or criticizing others. Even to most of the people who did bad by me.

    How long have you been a member of Religious Forums?

    Apparently I joined in 2012, but I also didn't have many concrete religious views until recently. Yet still I don't always come here to share my opinions but rather read other people's thoughts. I have more to share now so I'll continue being a regular here.

    Shopping for Religion

    (In case people don't know $name is the Belief-o-Matic.) I get UU or Liberal Quaker 100% every time. And everything else is a much smaller percentage. I already know the religion I believe in, it's Earthseed, but since it's difficult to practice the religion I believe in, I just go to the...

    Afterlife

    Isn't it ironic, then, that according to my Interfaith poll the most popular theology, and the one I focus on, is the one which one believes God and reality are one and the same thing. And yes, I do believe in an afterlife, and I even have an idea of what this afterlife will be like, but I don't...

    Don’t give up

    Honestly, RF and Chat GPT has helped me understand my theology more than if I hadn't used both. Being able to explain myself in either application has helped me clarified to myself where my positions are. While they don't change too much, check my signature and title often, because I do end up...

    A Christian becomes a nonbeliever

    All suffering is created because something did not view the other thing worthy of value, or divinity. The cancer grows inside a human body because the cancer wants itself to be alive and does not care about the human. Many entropic values are at play here, whether it is caused by human or...

    Is religion dying?

    This link will probably be helpful. And apparently according to that link's statistic, 68% of the Jewish population believe you can be Jewish without believing in God.

    Spirit of Place

    My neighborhood would be considered my spirit of place. While I take walks around my neighborhood I often meet my neighbors whom I talk to and listen attentively to. My neighborhood is several blocks east and west of here. On the corners there are commercial districts, grocery stores...

    Is religion dying?

    Certain religions become smaller and while others become larger. It is true however that religion most appeals to older generations. Exactly. Although I am only 33. The Zoomers seem to have this attitude which is like, "I'm atheist, but I understand why some people are religious", as most...

    Back to quakerism

    Quakers are a nice, good set of people. I'm not a huge fan of silent worship though. I prefer my services to be more participatory. Hymnals, sermons, and the like.

    Where is God?

    I agree with this answer. However... I don't pray to God because I don't think God can listen. As something that is all reality by itself I don't give anthropomorphic qualities to God. Reality isn't human. However, I can attend to and shape parts of this reality as I wish so and desire to.
