    What is the purpose of religion/spirituality (for you)?

    To cast spells, get gods to help out in life, and to make things appear that benefit me. Since I am the leader of my faith there is also the incentive of making a positive impact on the world.

    What will Satan's last days be like for us?

    I would be so frustrated and disappointed if Satan somehow disappeared. I use his enn and call upon him for various stuff so spiritual tasks would be a lot more difficult with one of the demons no longer around.

    Which Religion Do You Follow?

    I put other.

    Which Religion Do You Follow?

    I practice new religious movement. Sometimes it's a category in surveys like this. I would call it Paganism but modern pagan people don't really like to do that since they are trying to adhere strictly to practices from before Christianity.

    What does your religion or spirituality...

    Nothing about blood transfusion or organ donation itself, but blood is life force and carries the energy of the person who it flows inside of, although for the purpose of medicine this does not matter. In theory putting their blood into your body could spread a curse to you if someone used their...

    does God prefer science and secular ethics to religion?

    Idk about what the gods or the monotheistic god wants, but if they want anything than other than people to be logical, they will have to talk to us and explain what we are supposed to do, because acting in a way that does not correspond to some sort of secular logic or reasoning does not seem...

    What do different religions teach about casual sex?

    Lavenderism would probably say to energetically cleanse yourself somehow before and after sex, and casual sex is not actually looked down upon since it is said a person who dies a virgin may become a ghost that spies on people in bathrooms. They may even become an intranquil thetan and need to...

    Pope Francis allows priests to bless same-sex couples (not marriage)

    I am not Christian but if I was I would personally reject this for not being enough. A lot of people in the LGBT community seem to hate religion or view it as outdated if at all applicable to their lives, and I think this recent trend of gradually and subtly moving towards modern acceptance...

    The Need for Religious Literacy

    I think they should at least show people that Christianity is not the default belief system for all of humanity or the country. The amount of people who hear about other faiths and respond with "That's not real" is so high. Even basic instruction on religious diversity would help a lot...

    Is it bad to dumb-down or simplify practices or beliefs?

    If India is the land of spirituality than America is the land of cultism, because so many movements and organizations here are operating at least partially with simplified syncretic belief systems that come from Asia, Europe, or other philosophies. Most people probably know about the new age...

    (Religion) Which is more important: to be factually correct or to be content?

    I think the actual practice of the religion should be based on fact but the mythology or things can be whatever. The practice and lifestyle should be completely correct but everything else is extra anyway. In some ways the fantasy is there to explain the practices that work anyway.

    Christmas No Longer Recognized As The Birth Of Christ

    Well capitalism forced it on us in stores with their push to make it a secular holiday about spending money. So paganism or even satanism is not what caused Christmas to lose its faithful meaning. Capitalism did that. Don't blame the gods, don't blame the unbelievers, don't even Satan because...

    why do people want to spread their religion?

    I don't personally proselytize but I let people know if they have negative energy or seem to be cursed. Of course though this leads to questions and stuff but it's never a feeling of pushing them towards something.

    Experiences Outside Your Religion

    I have had three knocks on my door to find nobody there. They say in Christianity that this means the holy spirit wants to save your soul, but I would rather go to hell (If I had to go to any realm mentioned in the Christian faith) because I think it is better there. I heard three knocks at the...

    How do you know god is the strongest spirit being out of all spirit beings?

    I can tell this question is meant for Christianity but I can only answer from the point of view of Lavenderism. If Hechun (The king of heaven) was not the most powerful deity in existence, then he would have had his position usurped. This would be very bad because Hechun is benevolent towards...
