Hey im agnostic, a pretty strong agnostic i guess... which might seem weird cuz when i was younger i was the most religous person in my family! None of us ever went to church but i really wanted to and stuff, and then as we got older everyone except my dad whose athiest got big on religon, except me, who just stopped believeing. I dont know why i just started to really think about it, and ask myself questions about it, and i just couldnt believe it anymore. Then later on i became wiccan for awhile, but i went through depression and stopped believing again. I think mostly religon is something that people really need to hold onto and believe in, and so they create it. I totally understand that religons tend to be good, and they have good values and things like that, but i dont think they're true. im not likely to change my mind [and yea i HAVE been to church], but i figured id give anyone a chance to explain to me how they know their religon is true... please don quote the bible unless ur gonna tell me how you know the bibles true too. And dont say you just KNOW, because people always tell me that they just KNOW that their god is the real one and not someone elses, and then that person comes up and tells me the same thing.
Dont be stupid. I rate high! Thanks...
I'm a Wiccan, and I DON'T know that my path, or God and Goddess, is the right one. I grew up a Christian (not a practising one, mind, but in a Christian society, celebrating Christian festivals) and then converted. I'm often scared I'll go to hell or something because I've chosen the wrong thing.
However, when I first found Wicca, it was different. Something inside me clicked with it. I understood it, I WAS it. Straight away I knew this was the right religion for me because I agreed with so much of what it said. It's only doubts AFTER this realisation which make me wonder if I'm doing the right thing. The hardest part for me is actually going from one male God to a main female GodDESS as well as a God! It's a big adjustment to make, mind-wise. Did you ever get to that stage? I know I'm supposed to be giving the help here, but if you did, any ideas? :)
A big part of Wicca is trusting your instincts, remember? Trust yours! :) Research loads of religions, and when you find one that clicks...you know you have it.
(Rating: 5) hey thanks... yea i kno the feeling... i was wiccan for awhile too! I kno wut u mean. The way i saw the god/goddess thing was not as a god and godess but just one entity that doesnt nesseciarily NEED to go one or the other... both and neither.. just... god. u kno wut i mean?
