I'm not sure in this day an age what the ratio is to believers and non believers.

Obviously I follow the good Prince but aside that I wouldn't know what religion to write on a form.

Let's keep it civil. Just curious of the numbers.

I was shocked recently when I looked and saw that agnostics/atheists are still such a low percent (about 1 in 6)

Not really but I would like to hear more about this "the good prince" you speak of? Do you have any brochures?

I am a believer in God, yes.

Do I attend church every Sunday? No.

Do I try to convince everyone to be a believer because I am? No.

Do I think I’m better than non-believers? No.

Do I act holier-than-thou because I believe and someone else may not? No.

Do I curse like a sailor, drink, act a fool at times? Yes. Where does that put with the man upstairs? I don’t know but I pray often that He will forgive me for past, present and future sins.

Do I believe in heaven and hell? Call me crazy, but yes, I do.



Ok, that’s enough of this middle aged redneck’s testimony. See you whores in tonight’s fight thread.

Yes. But if I had to explain using Facebook terms "It's complicated" would fit best.

With everything that’s been happening lately I did start praying again just to hedge my bets in case I was wrong. Not for myself, even when I was a believer I only prayed for others.

I like to think there’s life after death, I just don’t believe it’s with God.

"and you know I ain't never prayed before, but it always seemed to me
if prayin's the same as beggin', Lord I don't take no charity."

Yeah.
Looking outward in, assuming no influence, if I just "was", I do believe inherently I'd feel there was something greater behind it all.
As it is, intellectually speaking, I find it more plausible that written scriptural accounts are truth statements of history rather than myths or stories of some sort.
I am not a huge fan of organizational religion, and disagree with some doctrines, therefore there is no "church" for me other than me. That said, generally, there's far more good happening inside that box than outside it.
I do feel it's my duty to share my belief, but not until I live it to avoid hypocrisy.
If my view is not accepted commonly, and I am being persecuted and possibly killed for it without physically harming others, then I know I'm on the right track.

Okay I'll refrain from the good prince. I'm derailing my own thread.




Carry on

I done go to church but I ain’t much for bible learnin’

There is no God but catholic schools are better than non catholic schools.

And our local priest is a good man. I don’t go every week but it’s a nice feeling when it ends and I can feel all superior after.
