I enjoy reading the threads is the religious forums. I've read some very insightful posts. And I was wondering what belief system I have the most in common with outside of my own.
I've been very impressed with the idea of Humanism.
What beliefs system do you admire, outside of your own?
You do know that Humanism is the basis behind starting the satanist church. Humanism doesn't qualify for tax exempt so it was called Satanism instead. But of course it evolved into something else over time.
Look up the origins of Satanism...How it was started and why...
Really. Well, I did not know that. I'm an idiot then, but they seem so level headed and courteous.
I guess their like Jehovah Witnesses and don't share the madness until they think you're hooked.
LOL. No. I just had a disturbing conversation with someone of another mindset. I think some of my perceptions of their belief system were unkind. I wanted to say something nice about some one else to make myself feel better. Couldn't say it about them, but there are philosophies I admire. Humanism is one of them.
Is that a belief system? That would be a nice one.
Oh yes. It has many shades. One day I might love strawberry icecream and the next day I only like it.
Well, sounds like a good one for me. I definitely change my mind a lot about the things I love. Maybe that wil be my minor religion instead of humanism, after what Double Scorpion said, it sounds a little creepy.
Haha yes maybe you were meaning humaneness if there is such a word? Doesn't sound so creepy. Humaneness with love sounds good?

It is my contention that the Christian religion (and specifically following Christ) is guaranteed to cause conflict, wars and ill will.As proof - I cite the last 1800 years - including the hubpages forums as evidence. Not only are these forums littered with arguments between atheists and believers,...

What do you believe or how would you best explain your overall belief system?

How does a person form their belief systems in the first place? Why are people unwilling to change their beliefs when there is good reason their beliefs are false ie "I still believe anyway".Do belief systems rule our lives?

Was it a hard transition from tarot and one belief system to Christianity?

What type of evidence do you need to believe you have developed a well informed belief system?What type of evidence do you look for? Do you need scientific evidence? Historical? Is no evidence enough to form a belief system?
