Hello! I'm back (for those that remember my brief time here)
Anyways Im not entirely sure if this would fit here but I needed to vent my feelings a bit and hopefully get some advice.
So my beliefs have been all over the place really. For starters I am a theist but I'm not sure what kind. I...
Hello,
I've been debating whether or not to post in here for the past few days and I saw illykitty post a thread so I figured I should probably just man up and make a thread.
A little backstory first, I've dabbled with Dharmic religions my whole life practically. Buddhism and Hinduism were...
Recently I've been kind of under the weather (nothing too bad, kind of just allergies) and I've noticed that every time I pray I'm very short of breath? Which is weird because I usually pray silently or under my breath but I feel very fatigued at times, sometimes its so bad I have to pause or...
Hello all,

Hi, I've recently been seeking a religious path to take that I can stick with. For the majority of my life I've been pretty much Agnostic (since I wasn't really raised on any kind of faith) but after reading more into religion, culture, and history I've become deeply interested in spiritualism...
Hello all! I've been seeking a religion that will stick with me (I was granted the wondrous opportunity of being born to an agnostic family so I more or less have the freedom to choose whatever I wish.) I've looked around a lot, visited some famous religious sites on the East Coast, read some...
