Re: Please outline your beliefs
What are your beliefs regarding what God is?
What are your beliefs regarding who Jesus was and his relation to god and us?
What are your beliefs regarding other religions?
1) As humans, can we ever truly know? Most likely not. Personally, I rule out the Abrahamic, Dharmic, or Pagan gods as folly, but I don't rule out some sort of universal energy or spirit. Basically, some kind of unconscious force emanating from the Cosmos. Of course, we have no way of knowing
2) I regard Jesus as an artificial construct of the social and political needs of his times. His teachings, however, do hold a truth to them, one of brotherhood and love. I do not need a "Holy" Book telling me about this, however
3) As aforementioned, Organized Religions are construct of social, political, and economic control. I wouldn't label myself under any brand of religion, but I wouldn't rush to stamp "Atheist" across my forehead either. I honestly don't know how to label myself.
