one foot in front of the other.. is it easier to believe.. there is a purpose for those steps OR is it .just. a meaningless movement forward.
is it easier to believe in nothing, that fathom the idea that something- or someone loves and /or has a plan for us?
is religion a guilt trip giving safety net or brainwashing? or is atheism a free space guilt free safety net and brainwashing??

If you have a God or god or idea to trust-rely-depend-console- (whatever) you, or keep you in check..or make you feel worth something- or a part of something bigger and greater than your own life its kinna like - you should listen to/ obey what He/she/thebook or Book says to do, not because you HAVE to, but because you WANT to. 

If you don't have a God or god or idea to trust-rely-depend-console- (whatever) you, or keep you in check..or make you feel worth something- or a part of something bigger and greater than your own life its kinna like - you can do whatever you want, cause there is no standard or guilt trip set in your mind - not an immoral behavior- just a different take on things you feel a He/she/book or Book shouldn't dictate. 

On one side there are people books facts and documentaries on why one should believe in God, or a god, or Buddah or who/whatever..

On the other there are people books facts and documentaries on why one should NOT believe in God, or a god, Buddah or who/whatever. 

Both sides have their ignorant uninformed knuckleheads that screw it up for everyone else.
Both sides have their well informed scholars and individuals that have made it real to themselves 

Both sides are reading man written information- and choosing to follow it based on their own decisions.
man & woman. are both flawed. how do you really know?

really?

You make the decision on your own.. bottle up your preferences, life lessons and trials, and you put them on the scale. Weighing the facts with what you believe as truth. 



The Bible says "I AM (guarantee) the way the truth and the life "...
An agnostic/atheist/polytheist have a take on it - How do you REALLY know- that you've got it right. you snotty Buddhist the Hindu, the Christian or "christian" 

To the religious: How DO you know.
To the Atheist: How do you know there isn't?


The long list of "do's and don'ts or OR ELSE!" Is exaughisted and wavering, dependent on preference and lifestyle. Might as well live life, love others, recycle and be a doctor- if it's just about "staying positive" I can do that... and get tanked on the weekends without any regret-

If those " secret sins" are sooooo sooo bad...and your God, or god or whatever is so forgiving and gracious.. why is there so much corruption in your "body of believers?"... I don't know. It's been brought up the whole.. no god/God no morality.. but is THAT accurate? .. I... don't know.

Heads/Tails: The answers to these questions lie in the fact that God is sovereign, and we do not need to figure it out. Its not about us, and Gods grace is enough to bring you back to where you first were, its deep enough to drown all fear, and wide enough to wash away all sin and doubt. NO ONE is perfect, everyone has their own battles. No one has the right to judge. If I'm right- we get to experience life and end up in the arms of the love that carried us all this way.

Heads/Tails: The answers to these questions may be found in a book or documentary, it is insightful to try and figure it out. One specific god/God idea may not be accurate, but why not chase all forms of faith and try to figure out what works for you. Take love from one, and peace from another, and build your own walk of life. Grace and forgiveness still exists on the most humane of levels. You are not here to judge, you know right from wrong. If I'm right-go forth experience life, and see where we end up, in the arms of chance.

Is it THAT wrong or difficult to believe that we were created, and are living for a purpose? That there is someone who loves us beyond all comprehension?

Are you THAT naive to believe ONE God/god/whoever/whatever really cares for you or has your best interest at heart?

I am not really sure where this came from. and i don't really have an answer to any of these questions.. 

I guess what I'm getting at.. is.. whatever you believe. Believe it. Live it. DO it.

I am not a scholar or theologian, I do not have a large collection of leather bound books on faith and religion. (I actually dislike reading to the highest degree) Im just a girl.. with questions like anyone else.. with doubts just like anyone else.

For the first time in a long time, I am interested in trying to re-answer each of the questions above... I know the "sunday school answer" and I see the Agnostic point of view as well.

I dunnoe.. maybe this will spark some good conversation.. I'm in

tag people you think might have something to say.
