  • Are You A Person of Faith?

    Whatever you want to call it.
    A particular denomination or spiritual ?

    Whatever.

      I believe there is something bigger. I have no idea what that is. The views/possible concepts I do have hold no practical implications and I reject all organised religion that claims to have answers.

        I'm Gnostic, but a different breed, if you will.

        While most Gnostics see Samael the Demiurge as the enemy... I worship him. Gnostics are misguided fools, but they are actually correct in their deductions of the way things work. They would probably view me as insane or evil.

        Ironic in a way.

          No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                Yes.

                My history is SDA, which is fundamentalist/evangelical. I am no longer fundamentalist.
                My wife is non-denominational pentecostal. We have occasionally attended Assembly of God churches.
                I attended an ELCA college, and we attended an ELCA church occasionally in 2019-2020.

                Currently we are attending an SDA church because my wife has scheduled activities Sunday morning, but I would probably choose ELCA (or similar) if I was able to.

                  Hebrews 11:1
                  Now Faith is the assurance of things hoped for,
                  the evidence of things not seen.
                  1 Corinthians 13:13
                  Three things remain forever. Faith, Hope and Love;
                  but the greatest of these is Love.

                  Everything begins with Faith.
                  Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

                    Well, yeah, the answer does depend on how you define faith.

                      No

                      however God is your own people and your country and in this regard yes,

                      Don't know how to descrtibe it. I look at an icon, is like I look at my mother, my nation myu people. Do I believe in them? Yes. Are they God? Yes (or they scream God exists)

                        I look at the ascetic icons and feel there is a reason why and that we are all interconnected in love


                        I hope serb doesn't say I'm gay

                        I'm joking

                          No, with the caveat that I have a vague hope that we are in a historical simulation or something which was created to rescue our minds.That's the only convincing justification for a benevolent "creator" to allow the suffering that goes on in this world that I know about.

                            Better than being a slave to a 2000 year old Jewish fan fiction.

                          Yes.

                          I have decided to baptise myself in 2013, when I was 36, so pretty adult.

                            But you are a gay!

                            however God is your own people and your country and in this regard yes,
                            Not even a close!

                            Your people and your country could become a gay in 1,2,3!
                            Does it means God does so?

                            You have gave birth to the Orthodox Christianity, then it fuked-up and been enslaved for centuries.


                            p.s. And since you are no longer Christians, you support the Nazi Anti-Christ forces in Ukraine (where the have banned the largest Christisan Church and and confiscate Christian
                            Churches and monasteries!
