its all mapped out for you. there is one thing, one action, one pre destined outcome for everyone. some find it, some dont, some think they have but leave this planet unfulfilled. finding it is all the fun  Yeah long time, hows trick? You Calvinist bastard, fuck that for a game of soldiers! If it's all mapped out what's the point in living? Are you saying we have no control of our lives? ;D |

thats not to say i dont believe in the theory of evolution, more that the planet earth is a marble, the marble bag is our solar system, and we are actually sitting in the loft of a house, so big, in a world rules by beings so powerful, that our small minds could not comprehend it. but when these powerful beings decide to have a clear out, we are fucked. that's actually quite profound, even if it is a joke! I once read a book by this guy whose theory was that Eart, the solar system, the milky way, the rest of the galaxies, the universe; were essentially tiny particles (like anti-matter) and along with millions of other universes they all went towards being the atoms that made up a chair leg or some other random object on another planet in another lifetime. Not too dissimilar to your marble theory. |

Not too dissimilar to your marble theory. That's how i always believed it to be, I don't believe in following a religion, theres possibly a higher power, but, it would never be a bloke walking round healing people or parting the sea, thats just fake as far as i can see. |

I do, being a lutheran. But I have very modern views. Yes I believe in God as we know him, but I also understand wanting to praise God in their own way. The similarities between the Koran/Torah/Bible are so obvious, but for the "blind" preachers against each faith. I like the buddhist and sikh ideals, and they are all interlinked in one way or another.
There is a higher being, to me he is God, to others he is the same but with a different name.

Atheist, and personally believe organised religion is the most dangerous thing in the world, particularly the Vatican. The power they hold is just frightening really.
