    Which is ACTUALLY The religion of peace? If there exists one.

    Oh, Christianity as a whole absolutely is not one of the world's most peaceful religions. But the Quakers are typically absolute pacifists and conscientious objectors. iirc they were one of the groups who were imprisoned and killed for their beliefs by both mainline Protestants and Catholics in...

    Which is ACTUALLY The religion of peace? If there exists one.

    The Quakers are a mostly Christian group that are all about humility, pacifism, conscientious objection and consensus decision-making.

    Which is ACTUALLY The religion of peace? If there exists one.

    ooh, I never thought of it like that. Anyways, the Quakers spring to mind for me. There's a very peaceful religion. And fyi, neopaganism isn't really a religion, more a family of religions (kinda like Abrahamic or Dharmic).

    Would you marry a gay couple...

    ha, seems I have something of a reputation... But in any case, what determines which Biblical commandments still hold and which don't? I'm guessing you're a heterosexual who eats shellfish and wears mixed fabrics, as are most others in your faith. If so, isn't it a little too convenient that the...

    Views on Morality

    Morality is culturally constructed, but there are still better and worse moral systems to construct in terms of what brings about human well-being. I kinda like the aesthetics of nihilism tho.

    Would you marry a gay couple...

    So the aspects of Biblical law that inconvenience you personally are no longer valid, but the ones that reinforce your prejudices must be enforced at all costs?

    Your beliefs of Afterlife?

    I am curious what "willfully reject" means in this context. Is it blasphemers? Apostates?

    Best World War II Topic?

    What caused the rise of fascism, and what we can do to prevent it from ever happening again.

    Are humans somehow "unnatural"?

    We absolutely are not. I do not believe that anything exists outside of the natural universe. Does that mean I'm a materialist? Hel no. But mind is a natural quality; spirit is a natural quality. Even the paranormal is not "supernatural" to me.

    What Brought About the End of the Islamic Golden Age?

    It's more accurate to say that when they came into contact with the Greeks, they adapted the Greek stories and images to their own gods. In the imperial period, Olympian Zeus and Capitoline Jupiter would've been seen as two aspects of the same deity.

    I get that. I sometime have my doubts too. I love the Heathen community here but sometimes feel like I don't like or relate to any of the main "wings" of Heathenry at large.

    The Best Movies on Spiritual Themes?

    Simple Way

    haha I liked the post just because it's fun writing. It's kinda like medieval alliterative poetry but super garbled. Not sure what it means, but it's a lark.

    Are Religions really about God????

    That doesn't apply to all religions.

    Greetings I'm new here

    Glad to meet you! It's always nice to see more people supporting LGBTQIA rights on this board. You sound like someone with a pretty eclectic but well-developed sociopolitical worldview.

    Recommended Anime

    Have you watched Yu Yu Hakusho? I grew up on that show, and I heard that it's by the same guy as HunterxHunter.

    What other religions give science credit?

    Kemeticism springs to mind. Thoth is viewed as the author of every branch of knowledge.

    Who Is the best Superhero (American Animation)?

    Gonna take pollution down to... nil.

    How do you decline social invitations?

    I'd just say "I'm not in the mood", "I'm not up to it" or something neutral and honest like that. I wouldn't lie and I wouldn't ignore them. Personally, I can't stand it when people leave things like that ambiguous. It's very stressful. I'd always rather be told something up front. It's not...
