Default What is your religion?

What religion do you follow and why do you choose to follow or believe in that religion?

Personally I dont believe in any form of Gods mainly due to lack of proof, I would like if there was one but sadly I dont think there is one. I believe were here by chance and were the product of The Universe, thats the only proof of anything we have had more or less. I dont follow any religion at all and to be honest I am not sure which religious group I would fit into because whilst I dont believe in there being any Gods, I do sometimes wonder if there is some ultimate creator, perhaps not in what we see God being but something supernatural, unseen even. I am sure I am not Atheist.

I used to have a book on Wicca/Wiccans, I tried to get into it myself but never could, having an altar and all that I couldnt take seriously myself. What are Wiccan beliefs mainly?

we have "The Wheel of the Year" which has several holy days... we mainly pray to our god and godness (simbolized by the moon) and we pray to the nature so that it will reborn the next year.. (the year changes in october, 31st.. that why hallowe'en is celebrated.. well now it has other purposes)

we have 5 elements which kinda define who we are... it's like the signs, more or less..

our mainly goal is: "an it harm none, do as you will" which basically means that we can do wtv we want just not hurt others in any way.

we have magic but, besides it takes years to learn, you have really to believe it , otherwise it won't work and you will just make fool of yourself..

i mean i didn't believe myself because we're talking about MAGIC. but i got proofs.. and it's not magic as in telekinesis or something like that but the magic comes from you, from your energy... i mean it's really hard to explain if you're not a believer

I sort of understand, a friend of mine years back used to say he was Wiccan, I dont know whether he is just saying that or anything but what he done once was stab his own hand and he didnt look like he was in any pain at all, now I dont know is he had taken something or was using some form of magic but I was extremely surprised about it.

I dont think I am in touch with nature enough to ever be one myself, plus I cant see myself believing in any God without solid proof.

I am a Christian but I dont go to church. I believe we couldnt have come from nothing it doesnt make sense because everything has a reason, what made the things form from it just doesnt make sense to me that nothing created everything.

I suppose one could consider me a Christian.
I believe in God and belong to a Southern Baptist belief.
However I have yet to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. Which is how Christians, at least where I come from differ from Believers.

I guess then, I'm just a Believer.
