    Not Christianity, But Something Similar...

    Every time someone uses the term "natural theology" to describe my beliefs I 100% agree with that assertion. In RF I am a natural theologian. I agree with this idea so much that I changed my RF title from, "Synverse Shaper", despite really liking that title, to, "Natural Theologian", as it will...

    Happy Birthday Religious Forums!!!

    Dude, you have no idea how true this statement is ... whenever I bring up syntheism or Earthseed to my parents they roll their eyes at me. I really just feel like I can be myself here and advocate for ideas and positions that otherwise would be overlooked in the real world. :(

    The Exclusivity of Christianity

    So you obtain eternal life because of a belief you have? Being a critical thinker, like @It Aint Necessarily So is, stops you from having an afterlife? Or at least a pleasant one? How and why would a fair or just God punish people for a belief? You already mentioned that atheists can obtain...

    If all paths lead to God, why should I choose your religion ?

    Do you want to worship God, or do you want to be an active participate of shaping that God? Using your God-created intuition to understand and know God is more important than blind obedience to scriptures and rituals. Choose not to fear God but to be an active, living force of this God, and one...

    Happy Birthday Religious Forums!!!

    The existence of RF coincides with the time I took to look deep into myself and discover my syntheist beginnings. I know I'm a day late, but HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY RF!!!

    Will Christianity Die?

    If you are religious/believe in a god, do you.....

    Death to me is like sleep. I wish to exist now, exist in the future I will take its space. But I do not fear death because I know one day I'll be resurrected, just like everybody else. I'm looking forward to my new body in a super-technological future, and being an overseer of an entire galaxy...

    God and this world?

    I don’t just consider it, I very much believe in it. My idea of life after death is: a long period of nonexistence, followed by a return to form, being resurrected in a new, physical body, with a lot more knowledge and ultimately having a goal of controlling an entire galaxy that will eventually...

    God and this world?

    As I believe that God is the Synverse, a combination of ultimate nature and ultimate humanity, I believe that the human side of things is always looking to improve the conditions laid upon the Synverse as the result of natural forces. So I’d answer the first option if we are talking strictly on...

    What do you think about other religions?

    You have an answer for everything, and I like that. I just want to let you know, though, that link doesn’t work. It redirects to some random Dutch website that has no relation to the Baha’i Faith. But thank you for the enlightenment and good conversation. :)

    What do you think about other religions?

    The Bible is supposed to be the word of God. Are you saying over two billion Christians got the part that Jesus resurrected incorrectly? I would think that if your very existence is caused by God that makes you more valuable than someone who was born naturally. What recorded miracles did...

    What is your favorite candy bar?

    But I typically eat protein bars now because candy makes me feel awful.

    What do you think about other religions?

    But why did Baha'u'llah suddenly decide that he was born of a virgin but did not resurrect after death? What kind of knowledge did Baha'u'llah have to know exactly one miracle but not believe the other? Does Baha'u'llah have some sort of divine intuition that tells him when something is true and...

    The Most Basic Question...

    Ultimate nature (The Omniverse) ultimately created the Universe and everything in it, including negative energy, positive energy and all the laws of physics we know today. You might not view that as God, but I do, because it is a type of synverse. As a natural theologian I see evidence of...

    Why do people expect God, do miracles?

    When I was briefly a practicing member of the Baha'i Faith, I could tell that I was in essence 'polishing my soul' with Baha'u'llah's words. My demeanor changed, my words were softer and kinder and my soul was filled with the essence of your prophet. The illusion of change happened to me and I...

    Muhammad is not Seal of Prophets, He is Ring of Prophets!

    @InvestigateTruth Can you tell me what "ring of prophets" means? According to the Baha'i Faith what was Muhammad's role as this "ring" of prophets? Does ring, as referred to here, a prophet that cumulates prophecies, making him the "ring-leader" of prophets? And how does Muhammad role as the...

    Do you think a god will forgive you?

    As a syntheist I believe God isn't as much of a being as it an action, or an action of a being, as exampled in human extropy or natural entropy. Actions have a way of raising or lowering the divinity of things, and of course, we as a species will find a way to cumulate the most amount of divine...

    May I Ask, What Religion Are You?

    It does, you just have go to their profile > about section. And you are still able to view and change your own too. It's just not as visible as it used to be.

    May I Ask, What Religion Are You?

    Or how about "religious position"? Religious positions can include irreligious positions, I think. Although, if someone puts in their religious bio: "None", "atheist" or "agnostic" I think virtually the same thing - they don't believe or practice religion.

    May I Ask, What Religion Are You?

    I was thinking the same thing. There's even a DIR here on RF for Christian Wicca in Syncretic Religions as indicated here.
