I hate to say it but Hitler did for Germany what the first few presidents did for America (in 1/10th the time)... some pretty fucked up shit to get the nation ahead. Yes, this includes toting slavery and killing a ton of Indians. You always hear people complain about killing Jews but no one cares about Native Americans. Thats racist bullshit so deal.If it wasn't for Hitler, Germany would still be paying off debts from WWI.
And before you flame me, I hate Hitler as much as the rest of you but I believe that making him look rediculous is the only way to get back at him. He was a silly farting meth-head who was weak enough to commit suicide and take his fam with him. A regular pussy.

I used to be into the New Age, bullcrap. Now I've rid myself of religious illness, for uncertainty. Religious folks, are honestly just guessing, being emotional, and letting off steam.

Ok, if this makes any sence i am a catholic-Wiccan-Buddist. Let me explain this one if i can. I was born Catholic, got into the Wiccan religan, but now belive more in the search for harmony like a buddist( plus got a cool Budda sitting up in the room). Yes i am confused. 
By the way if anybody knows where i might get some Buddist pray bead, please PM, and tell me, because i really want a set.

atheism. i would love to believe in something more, but i cant find an origin of a belief beyond an "enlightened" individual, who was chosen by God or whomever, to spread the "truth" of His existence.

i am an atheist. i ascribe to a number of different philosophies, some of which have origins in religious traditions, but i leave faith and mythology where i feel they belong - outside of my beliefs.

If you're still out there...I quite forgot about getting back to you, sorry. I am aware of the various possibilities described by various faiths regarding post-mortem conditions of various human beings. My present understanding is that none of these apply in the additional possibility to Liberation. In Gnosticism as well as Advaita as well as Buddhism as well as Kabbalism - as soon as one ceases to identify with an individual being to whom conditions can apply - one is Liberated. Liberation consists in the Realization that one's Ultimate Nature is indistinguishable from God, or the Clear Light of the Void, or Brahman or Ain Sof, etc. We are The Ocean of Existence Itself, yet we are deluded into thinking that we are separate, individual little waves that come into and go out of existence. As soon as the wave Realizes that it is indistinguisable from the entire Ocean, the questions who/what am I? and what happens at death? cease to have any real meaning. We simply have to experience ourselves as the ONE.

I follow no religion. I am not a follower, I do not like other people between me and my beliefs. I do abide by two things however: Compassion and Responsibility. From those two ideals come all good things. It doesn't need to be more complicated than that.

I'm just not a fan of religion. Anybody else?
I was raised Catholic, went to church on sundays and went to catholic school K-8. I never liked church or praying but because I was so young and because religion was around me all the time, i went with the flow. when i was old enough to make my own decisions regarding faith, i dropped religion and didn't look back.

I like how you worded this and I rather agree. I'm an Introverted Intuitive Thinking type, so I like to philosophize and metaphysics is my preferred branch of philosophy, but you are quite right about the simplicity.

Since both my screenname and beliefs have changed since my first post here, I might as well give an update:
I am a Gnostic Christian, particularly focused on the Sophian Tradition. Unlike certain Gnostic sects, I do not take a purely mythological interpretation of Christianity, but I also do not take a purely historical interpretation, as literalist Christians do. Rather, I interpret scriptures both mythologically and historically. I'm also starting to learn the Kabbalah

I am a hybrid,lol
I believe in the catholic social teachings and the true message of Jesus but I disagree with a lot of the other Catholic beliefs.
I have been recently delving into the Eastern religions and some of my philosophy has come from them.
-------------------- "People living deeply have no fear of death." "Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love." "Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings."
