You mean you don't believe in a particular religion (eg. Christianity, Hinduism etc..) because if you believe in a God you are religious.
Maybe it should be called Clawism or Clawtholic?

Welcome to the fun mate!
Let me bring you up to speed:
Christianity Thread - for dumping on Jayfox and Djevv
Athiest Thread - for dumping on Disco, Panthera, Evo, Sixer
Personally I like to jump between the two, because why limit yourself to ragging on only one group ;D
Seriously though, they are both more "religious" threads than strictly Christian/Athiest, so feel free to throw in your 5c
So what are you if:
1) you were brought up Catholic, was an alter boy and attended Mass every week (and twice a week during secondary school.)
2) you no longer believe most of the stuff in the Bible (stuff that was rammed down my throat as being the unquestionable truth.)
3) you still believe there's probably some sort of higher being; at least for my own peace of mind, I hope there is.
4) my own life experiences lead me to question even this at times.
5) don't particularly like what religion as a whole does to the people of the world.
I don't particularly know where I stand anymore, but this thread continues to be a good read.

Hi Freezer, I know how you feel.
Church in and of itself cannot satisfy the Human soul but God can if we look to him through his son Jesus. Now all the naysayers here will dispute this, but when I was 23 I had a dramatic spiritual encounter with Jesus and it totally transformed the meaning of my life. Welcome to this section and as the bible says seek and you shall find.

Certainly not Antman christians dont have a monoploy, but God does! He is very generous too.

So tigertime, it's fair to assume that you're certain that every person that has had a religious experience that had nothing to do with Jesus is deluding themselves?
tigertime2 said:
What about the ugly stuff like wars and disease? Does God's monopoly include those too?
