What Religious Beliefs Do You Have?

[estranged4life]

I could make the longest post ever on this subject, but I dont feel like boring people to death - so I will say that Debbie was a Wiccan and I am nothing particular.

I follow a belief system that WE are responsible for our OWN actions (And that ONE needs to accept their OWN RESPONSIBILITY for their actions in life and NOT 'pass the buck' when one is WRONG) and not some guy in a sea-of-fire with a pitchfork and horns who is quote "evil" is responsible for when we do wrong and that no 'historical messiah figure' can save our souls from this "evil-one" (No, I am not doubting Jesus, I believe He was a wise-man who had good ideas - but I do REFUSE to participate in ORGANIZED religion that BASTARDIZES His teachings in sake of $$$$$$$)...ironically that belief system I follow has been called in modern times, and INACCURATELY at that, "Satanism" (Dont ask why it referred to as "Satanism" - I dont ask for the reason, but I believe it may have to do that one is their own master of the destiny, they are their own God and they are also their OWN Devil...Who knows )

Sorry, but the religion regularly called "Satanism" (The one where you WORSHIP 'the horned one down below' as such as most "Death Metalers" do...I love death metal, but that 'horned dude' is as believable a deity as PEE-WEE HERMAN would be) is a form of reverse "Christianity"

Am I scared of goin' to 'Hell'? No, THIS IS HELL folks, this existence is hell to me (Debbie told her co-workers once that this life is "Hell on Earth"...Which she believed as do I) - once I exit it I will either enter into an afterlife where I will see those I love and care about or just be 'food for the worms' ('Tits up' at that...Thought I prefer to be cremated and placed in a ashtray, ya know, the kind one sees in an office building and have candy cigarettes placed in my ashes so one mistakes my ashes for the ashtray then they can be told "Uh, That is Brian's remains...He prefers not to have your cigarettes resting on his dead ass" )

God is beyond my comprehension...But I believe in Her/Him/It/They(?), none the less (I think God is a female...And NOT Alanis Morissette either, See the movie "Dogma" to understand what I mean: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogma_(film) ) and I do believe She/He/It/They(?) has a WARPED sense of humor too (I love people who have the warped sense of humor I also have)

I have on the book shelves here in the living room, books about Mid-Eastern religions, Books about Taoism (Including "the Tao of Pooh" and in truth I see myself as "Tigger" OBVIOUSLY!!!!), books about Paganism, Wiccan, Satanism, Celtic beliefs, Native American beliefs, etc. and add to the fact I lived in the MOST RELIGIOUS city in the U.S. (Tulsa, OK) I find religion entertaining and weird/scary all at the same time...MORE fun than ANY NETWORK reality show!!!
