be tolerant

[GHoSToKeR]

in my eyes god doesnt exist. but, i totally understand and embrace other people who believe in god. everyone has their reasons for believin in a god or gods, and it helps them get along with their lives. the way i see it, god exists in the people who need him, but thats it. the lyrics to Kanye West's song, 'Jesus Walks' will help u see what i mean...

"I ain't here to argue about his facial features
Or here to convert atheists into believers
I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers
The way Kathy Lee needed Regis that's the way I need Jesus"
the way i see it, it doesnt matter what other people believe, only what YOU belive, what YOU have faith in.. dont get down and angry because the people around you dont think the same way as you... we're all humans man, shit. we're all made outta the same stuff, wether we black, white, japanese, american, portuguese, it dont matter.. just be tolerant and accept it, and hopefully theyll do the same about you and your beliefs, oherwise this world is gonna get more and more fucked up, and its gonna stay fucked up, but if we all learn to be tolerant, then we'll be aiight.. just remember, no matter what anyone else believes, the only thing you should give a fuck about is WHAT YOU BELIEVE.. if ppl start to think that like, then hell, maybe one day all this bullshit will stop and we can live in world without fighting, killing, war, all that shit.. and thats what we all want, right?

huh? when did i say i was a ghost? what do ghosts have to do with anything? its just a nickname man, what are you talkin about..

and as for experience and education of religion? ive grown up in a family that has been devided by religion, torn apart by religion. i used to be religious, because my family were, I, lke millions of other kids, had their religions and other peoples values, ethics and morals FORCED upon me, drilled into my head so i wouldnt question it when i got older. fortunately for me, and thanks partly to weed, i can question it, i question everything. how can you learn and grow without questionin everything? i questioned it, and found the answers to be unsatisfactory for me.. anyway, this has nothin to do with my experience of religion, it has simply to do with me askin ppl to be more tolerant of everyone elses beliefs.. simple
peace

just breakin the ice with the name, sorry if any offense...
you know i have talked with many people that also have had religion forced upon them
I believe that it was brought to them in the oppisite way God intended
It's all about a personal relationship with him if you let that happen
he will do the rest, if you don't give that a chance, you will never know.
You know if something was forced upon you, you were being controlled and that is not a totally loving situation of God. So I personally think it is'nt fair to blame that forcing on a possibility that can save you.

i personally do not believe in the title "god."...maybe there is "A" god, but i do not believe there is soley one god. There are just to many aspects that go against having an omnipotent creater. Where did "He" come from? Why would he create some of the smallest most unnoticable, most unessasary oraganisms. Why would he create a sloth, or an ant, or even a moose? there are just to many aspects going AGAINst there being a god. its just too irrational. FOR ME. and im not trying to offend or start "anything" but i don't understand how acouple billion people believe in a book that they don't have any proof is actually a historical referance. its just way to illogical for me. maybe acouple thousand years ago, a mentally ill man, who was smokin pot, decided to write a very long book. ? That's just as possible as it is having a god.

Hah I usually dont care but sometimes people get mad at me for making a joke that has to do with religion like that whole "would god let us smoke weed" thread or whatever that has been the highlight of the spirituality section for along time now. I think its cool if you believe in something but when people get offended or have a huge argument about it I sometimes fuck with their heads :-\. The idea of god is a good thing to start with because it lays down morals. Still find it funny that people only obey the good rules like "no killing" and "no rape" but sort of forget about the ones like "no beating off" and "no cussing." oh natural mystic, my dad teaches religion at the University of Richomd and he knows a guy who had a theory sort of like that, like people's brains were just still evolving a little bit and like they would sort of think in a different way then we do now, be more likely to believe a hallucations and such. It made alot more sense if you here the guy talk about it in person he's pretty good at answering questions too. Religion is an interesting topic to discuss as long as no one starts an argument.

My general approach to personal beliefs is if you don't want people to tell you you're talking shit, don't talk shit.



ps. That was an open statement not meant for any one person.
