When you reach the age of reason, will you reject supernatural religion?

No problem. I feel it more than worthy of yet another one of your rantings on believing in disbelieving. It also is a far better response than you have provided over the years to direction questions. "X" would cover your non-responses, red herrings, deflections and/or disappearing acts. Lest we forget, there is also your tactic of abandoning a thread where the heat's a bit much for you and starting an identical thread with a different title as if the original getting your ass handed to you didn't count. Or is it that if you say it enough times YOU might believe your own manure?

You're an easy read and you suck at this. Keep your day job flipping those burgers at MickeyD's.

Nice.

I am a Gnostic Christian.

In religious terms, how do you label yourself?

I don't often like to label myself, as it's restrictive. And I'm shy and don't always like revealing such things in a public setting. But I'm a member of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Laugh if you will, but your laughter will show why I don't like discussing my religion. But the Spaghetti Gods have taught me to be more patient, more understanding and gained me more inner peace.

I also don't share in public often... but I have a very bad habit of eating at my god's balls every now and again. I know it's against everything I believe in, but damn, those balls are just so damn tasty!!

No Jim and AC/DC double entendre here.

I'm rather upper class high society
God's gift to ballroom notoriety
And I always fill my ballrooms
The event is never small
The social pages say I've got
The biggest balls of all

You have nothing that you know to be a fact. All you have is faith.

Religion is entirely faith. There are no real "facts" about the time of Jesus. There are no photos, written documents or other items of historical value.
Christians accept what is known to be the Word of God. Muslims accept the Word of Allah. Buddhists accept the teaching of the Buddha. Agnostics believe none of the above.
I am a Christian because I accept the word of God to be divine. There is no correct or incorrect way to worship God.

You are correct that faith is a matter of where one is born. Most believers believe as they do as accidents of birth.

But adults, once reaching an age of intelligence should be looking a their faith to see if it is moral or not. Right?

Have you?

Hitler thought so. He tried to emulate him.

You're a waste of natural resources and bandwidth. Best part of you ran down your mamma's leg.

In the end. All that matters is Faith. Doesn't matter what religion, or belief. If you have Faith....the reward is....Nobody can take it away, dispute it, or prove it doesn't exist.

All along. I have been repeating my FAITH as the Belief in the Unseen.

Can anyone?....even those who pretend to be self-appointed apostles, prove otherwise???

Think about it. Everyone who has FAITH in something, cannot, and will not be convinced otherwise.
