That does sound a little difficult, but a bit honorable if you ask me. At the end of the day all wrongs fall on your shoulders, no God is going to come and save you, you must save yourself, you can't just pray your problems away, with such freedom comes a lot of responsibility. It's as if you...
So this one may sound weird but I find a lot of respect in Muhammad's rules for war. Now I have not read the Quran so all of what I am about to say comes from my college world religions course so PLEASE correct me if I am wrong. But from what I understand Muhammad had certain rules of engagement...
Sounds similar to Hinduism. You would be surprised the amount of different philosophies in Hinduism also. Theists, desits, monists, montheists, pantheists, poltheists, and even atheists(a group I myself am finding myself fall into). Seems we share that in common with one another.
And here I...
oh of course it is not compulsory. As I said I knew my thoughts would be unpopular, probably wrong. But I felt like adding that particular option for those that it may appeal to.
Ah I see where the confusion came from thank you. That was also going to be another question of mine. What little reading I did of Laveyan Satanism (I would like to actually buy the Satanic bible and give it a read) sometimes appears to be at odds with the Satanic temple. The temple is a...
Well I think a good place to find the answers are in timelines . Wasn't the Rig Veda written down before the puranas and thus before the puranic Gods that are the modern goddesses you speak of(please correct me if I am wrong)? So did these scriptures help formulate how the people saw the...
Ah okay. So it is still quite a religion, just without an outer deity to revere. Not quite theism as there is no deity but not atheism as there isn't not one either you just place yourself in that position of God.
Assuming what I said is right, that makes sense why calling yourself "Just an...
Quite a lot actually, see in as she has a nice place in my bedroom. Heck even introduced her to my son. he wasn't too keen on sitting still for darshan yet.
Actually moved really close to my childhood home, which is close to the Kali mandir in So cal. I really should try and visit more often...
So recently the church of Satan came out with a statement to the Muslims of the U.S offering to help them places if they feel unsafe in their town. Personally I thought this was very admirable and really picked my interest.
I know a little about Laveyan Satanism and have a few questions that I...
Ah just got annoyed with the debating and bickering so left and just, didn't return. felt like coming back for a bit. Glad that I could bring some good nature in the past. Yeah love the little guy. I may post picture later... maybe... debating it maybe privately...
Hey people I decided to check back in and see what's up. As for me? well my wife and I got pregnant again, but this time things were different, our little boy made it (It was a close call actually and he had to be delivered 5 weeks early). He is now half way to being two years old. but enough...
