Look at the history of male dominated religions, death, destruction, hate, war, oppression. Not something I care to ascribe to. You have had tolerance shoved down your throat, yet have none. That is the way of the "good book" ? Fuck that! Peace, love, tolerance, yeah right.

I believe in a male and a female deity, working together. All Gods being one God and all Goddesses being one Goddess. Its not just your way or the hiway and that seems to be the way it goes in that book of yours. A Lord AND a lady , a male AND a female deity. Mother/Father. Sol/Luna, etc.
I just find no spiritual satisfaction with a completely male dominated religion that tells me to be subserviant to men. If I was created and born into this world it must be for a better reason than that. So as I have an earthly physical mother and father, I have a universally spiritual mother and father. I believe in Do what you will, but harm none. I have some respect for your beliefs and have tolrance for others religious beliefs in an area where none is given.

Who knows, in the end it may just be something we tell ourselves just to give our lives meaning where none actually exists. Believe what you will, but allow others to believe as they will as well.
Ive also said that 'just because we believe it doesnt make it true'. That wonderful double edged sword. The world is made of contradictions. I am just enjoying getting the ball rolling, lol. I feel like a trouble maker today. Made you think.
