"Belief in God" I like Dr. John Lilly's Earch Coincedence Control Office idea. Christian God, don't be silly. Don't believe in santa either.

I like to play with how ever many different perspectives I can see from. Jiggy has me on her ignore list 'cause I disagreed with her and she didn't want to clarify what she was saying or negate my statements with a little reason. Just be careful with her.

most of my inspirations come from what I have experienced beforehand 
I really got into this a while back when I first started reading a lot about shamanism, then it led to my finding of the mushroom, which evidently led me here 
I'm still exploring everything out there to get a real understanding of how different people views on different philisophical questions.
most of the time they never get answered, but to me that really isn't the point. it's just that you think about them enough to bring back that awe in living. just having these ideas in my head alone has brought within me a profound appreciation for everything that is.
my idea on god? I have switched views many times and I told myself that instead of saying what is and isn't, go out and experience as many different philisophical views as possible. I try to take each one in consideration and try to experience it for myself.
the main thing I try to look at is how I react to reality, and how my ego creates a reality that really isn't there. especially when I shroomed for the first time and I fought hard against it, that being my only "bad trip" taught me so much about my judging reality.
if there is one belief I have it is this; I am responsibile for my emotions. reality doesn't make me feel any one way, I do.
feelings are a neat concept that I think about constantly, and the more I become aware of how I react to reality, the more I am able to control how I feel. to me this is one of the best forms of magic
-------------------- Annnnnnd I had a light saber and my friend was there and I said "you look like an indian" and he said "you look like satan" and he found a stick and a rock and he named the rock ooga booga and he named the stick Stick and we both thought that was pretty funny. We got eaten alive by mosquitos but didn't notice til the next day. I stepped on some glass while wading in the swamp and cut my foot open, didn't bother me til the next day either....yeah it was a good time, ended the night by buying some liquor for minors and drinking nips and going to he diner and eating chicken fingers, and then I went home and went to bed.
