I believe in a god, but it has nothing to do with mainstream interpretations, religion, or a cognisant personified being in the sky.

To me "god" is a force of physics, or the sum force of all energy.

The force is with us all.

For every action in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Energy never dies.
It can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only be transformed or transferred from one form to another.

I think of life like one giant relay race.

Yes, much more enjoyable than a mana potion. :mrgreen:

If I believe in myself , do I also believe in a god concept , whatever your idea of that could imagine. Maybe….
Even knowing about Evolution? , Maybe the Wiccans have it right ? Or …? Insert your choice of belief here …….

After all have been through in over six decades of life , Kinda of a Sense of comfort that something bigger exists .
Sometimes that is what Carrys some folk through hard times . And according some of the repeated saves , I have come through . Gotta figure somewhere something was keeping me alive .
Cause most likely , I could never be that Lucky . (I feel like on my good days.). :roll:

Same. There's something bigger, imo. I think there's an energy and order we can't begin to comprehend whether it has human / ethical principles or not. Something definitely kept me alive and I believe there's a purpose or reason for everything, if only to pass the torch along.

We can't help but cheat lie and steal to show us we need Christ for salvation.

The idea of hell is difficult for me to deal with. I heard a story of someone dying...they found themselves in hell..they cried out to Jesus and were saved..then came back to life.

I have a suspicion that everyone might get that chance after dying and no-one is going there..but the bible says differently.

My grandmother died in childbirth but came back to life.
At least, she died to the best of their medical knowledge in the 1950s.
She remembered it all her life.
Same with my exbf.

I'm not saying what causes those memories or what it's all about but their stories were remarkable.
Neither one of them were religious-based stories.

Comedian Kevin Hart told a story of how he and his best friend tipped over into the icy cold water of a fast flowing river when they tried white water rafting for the first time.

His best friend was born a christian but converted to islam and was often fond of ramming muslim stuff down Kevin's throat such as not eating pork, drinking alcohol and talking up Allah as the true god.

When they fell into the river Kevin managed to get back into the boat but his friend was floundering. and Kevin claims his friend shouted our "Jesus help me"! somebody pulled him out of the water.

After that Kevin would remind him
Jesus 1
Allah 0

Gotta say … there are times when the god concept doesn’t even occur to me,sometimes when am in the midst of
Some of my worse times . And if there was such a existence . Why would such a being cause / allow such
Things .
Well , people have said to me , Life is a learning situation. ……. For much of my earlier years would
Always respond , “ this has got to be someone’s idea of a practical joke” but whom am I to think , I can justify
The idea of god . But yet here I am , inspite of literally impossible odds …According to many medical professionals .
Perhaps god , or perhaps as a Aspie , am not too smart about conceptualizing death either. :roll:

I've been an atheist since I was old enough to decide on this issue.

Oh my yes, absolutely hate the filthy old s.o.b. whom I'm supposed to pathetically worship for bringing me into this horrific crapsack world I never asked to be born in. Can't hate someone I don't believe exists, right? :roll:
