    God is only belief not real?

    look if you believe in Jesus you have to accept the fact that 200 years earlier the same stories, rituals, and beliefs were formed during the lifetime of Mithras in Persia, which formed Mithraism....It's the same thing, Jesus is just a later version of Mithras. Actually it's proven fact that...

    Keep the Myths Simple Stupid

    hmm, yeah I have noticed the Hellenic and Roman pagans are more open to evolving and adapting than the Celtic or Asatru movements. Why is that....

    Keep the Myths Simple Stupid

    Darkdale, As a reconstructionist myself, A Recon of Religio Romana for 6 years and counting, I've seen alot of what you speak of. Trying to replicate a certain time frame instead of looking at the grand scheme of the particular culture (I'm not speaking for all Roman pagans of course...

    God and omnipotence

    yep. Not that I believe I hold any truth to my beliefs, Pagan religion is a way to connect with the forces of nature and hold them sacred. Many of us like to personify them and make everything more colorful with gods and myths, whether they hold any truth or really interact with us or not is a...

    God and omnipotence

    Great topic :) I have a colorful understanding of God, though this belief is far from mainstream in our world nowadays. I liken it to how some Hindu sects believe in Vishnu or Krishna as God with an eternal Form, as opposed to being transcendant, formless and stuff like the Tao or the Force. I...

    Who's Your Savior?

    Sol Invictus is my Savior, my Emperor, my Creator, and my Sustainance. He is Imperial, Cosmic, Unconquered, Invincible! He carries the Sun across the heavens to nourish the earth with life and warmth.

    Great to see everyone in the forum!

    very interesting. I've studied a bit on religions in Korea. It seems like that country (like alot of Asian countries) is a hot spot for new religious movements. I was reading a bit on Won Buddhism and that Korean nationalist philosophy (forgot the name of it though), they all seem to be very...

    Mental or spiritual?

    I always thought it was the spirit inside the person that was summoned, only they were doing the miraculous stuff, not the actual person... I don't know, I haven't had too many experiences with things like this but I wouldn't say it doesn't happen.

    Everyone - Pick a New Religion!

    yeah Feather is right, Snale, I follow a Monotheistic Pagan tradition and there are others out there too who feel the same way. :)

    Is Jesus The Only Way To Heaven?

    Jesus probably never even said he was the only way, you know? I mean would you listen to someone who said that to your face back then? I think later on people just fabricated his teachings into making it seem as if he was more than a man, and that you must listen to him to obtain special...

    Would you still follow your religion if....

    I'm not sure if I fall in this category either since I believe in several types of afterlife but I would say yes I'd still follow if I knew there was no reward or punishment.

    i need some help...

    If you feel like your more Monotheist but not quite sure how to interpret it, look into the many Monotheistic religions of the world. There's a bunch. Deism may be a good philosophy for you, it upholds belief in a natural God through observing nature and reason, as opposed to revealed religions...

    What is immoral about homosexuality?

    until you scroll down a bit and you see I got more specific by saying as long as these actions don't harm anyone. Pedophiles hurt people, most gays and lesbians are not mentally ill

    my post wasn't towards anyone in particular just expressing my opinion if you don't mind :)

    What is immoral about homosexuality?

    Jensa, it's just a religious book, a book of myths. There is no God talking in it telling you this and that is bad and your going to be punished eternally for it. No can constantly be punished and afraid forever and ever because their God said so, that is rediculous and certainly can't lead to...

    which denomination...

    It seems Christ is a synchretized Pagan god molded with the Hebrew god, whose various sects developed doctrines for him later on... Constantine the Great thought Christ was the incarnation of the Imperial Sun, and so he tried synchretizing the two movements and religions, especially to end the...

    Keep the Myths Simple Stupid

    Well the Romans were constantly evolving their religion, mythology and beliefs. So they certainly didn't stay with what they had before in the past, but prospered with understanding those around them, like the Greeks, Syrians, and Persians. As well as advancing on their own through experience...

    Would you marry outside of your faith?

    Well I've mostly been involved with others outside my beliefs, and even with christians it's perfectly fine with me because my beliefs aren't far from theirs anyway. I Hardly ever had any problems involving religion in my relationships cuz we just chose not to go there. I'm just beginning the...

    Do your gods play nicely with others?

    Well as a Roman Solar Pagan, I think the gods behave just like us humans, like the myths describe. They're all children of the Cosmic Sun, each with their own special powers and places in life, and it's they who are behind the forces of nature and take care of us. But I think the heavenly and...
