Religion

Maybe an uneasy subject for some, but under what religious category do you assume yourself to be in? Any special practices or beliefs?

As for me......I don't really know, somewhere between occultist and athiest...as I don't really see that there is a god, but I do practice some occultist type beliefs and things of the sort......

Oh yeah btw i'm a jew.

No offense, but the occult is all bullshit. I was raised catholic but pfft, we newver go to church. Aethist. Not because I hate god or anythung, it's really that I don't really care as much to be catholic.

Haha i dont care enough to be religious.

We are a thouroughbread athiest family. I am still open to opinions tho. External image not preserved — inspect source: http://homegrownforums.com/forums/html/emoticons/suspicious.gif

You're all sinners and you're going to hell!

i'm atheist. i was forced to go to church. never force anyone to do anything.

Religion is for suckers.

I live in a agnostic family
for a year and a half i was a practicing wiccan

But now just agonostic, meaning i belive there is a god, but i dont follow any one religion

listen to the song two sides- by clawfinger to get my basic take on religion....or watch dogma

Could you explain basically what Wiccan is about? Is it like witchcraft or something....I heard that somewhere......I dunno, hopefully you can clear it up for me....

Wiccan is a religion based firmly in the earths energy, Its not Witchcraft in the sense most people belive it is. No animal sacrafice, no worshiping satan.


Wicca is based on the symbols, seasonal days of celebration, beliefs and deities of ancient Celtic society.

I could go on about it, but you can read about some of it here

Im also into spirital healing, using techniques pased down from my grandparents. I know it sounds retarded and stupid, but the firstitme i heald my GF, she was freaked, and then she slowly belived in it, and recently has been studying it

Is meditating a part of it? ...I've tried that before but I can't clear my mind well enough, I just feel like an idiot when I'm trying to do it

yes, meditation is used, its hard for me too, specially in this day and age, where theres always something to be taken care of
If you feel strongly about it, just work on it and you will eventually get it

Cool, I'll try it some more I guess, is there any point to doing it though? Does it relax you or something?

is to relax and be more receptive of the energy around ya

and for relaxation and to be able to focus better on whatever your doin

Cool, in some of the occult shit I've read they think that you can cast spells and shit by meditating, I don't believe in that though......because if it were possible to curse people and cast spells.....they why wouldn't more people do it?

I'm Catholic...
