What reasons do you have to believ?and what reasons do you have not to believ?

what religions are right and wich are wrong? I believe we all have reasons for the religion we choose! but I also believe half of us dont have a clue about being loyal to a religion. What do you people think?

Reasons for believing?

selfish but I dont wanna go to hell

my religion of choice: Islam

and you should answer your question too man

I think i believe because it makes sense to me, and explains a lto of things. As simple as that.

I believe in paganism, becouse it works for me. Believing in god only got me hell on earth.

heres a good question. Paganism is the old religion, Christianity is the new. After god was finished creating how long did it take before ppl forgot he existed??

My reasons for not believing are many. Most people believe on the creepy shallow threat of going to hell. God is love, he sure has a funny way of showing it.

sorry, you're going to hell

i believe because in my mind there has to be more than just this life that we are in right now. others may say differently but its their oppinion and im not gonna hate them on that.

The reason 90% of the people on this earth believe what they believe is because that's what they were raised into. They have had their parents and their church push religious propaganda on them. This is the worst reason to believe a religion.

I was christian but then i realized that you can't prove the existance of god so i became an atheist, then i realized that you can't prove the non-existance of god either so i became agnostic. I believe since we can't prove any religion we should just listen to our hearts and minds on how we should live our lives. Not god, not a church,not a book, only ourselves.

ok. But what is the "more"? Whose story are you going to believe?

I know there is a deeper level of reality, and all of this didn't just randomly appear.

That's why I believe a hermaphrodite chipmunk painted the universe into existence with it's many-colored feces. You can't see Bubbles, the chipmunk, because it moves faster than light. But you can find the truth because Bubbles sent half-godly chipmunk offspring to enlighten us. All you have to do is shave them and put 3 in your ass, and wait. It takes a while, though.

I dont believe in it because i dont need some "god" to make me feel safe or special http://www.totse.com/bbs/smile.gif (http://www.totse.com/bbs/smile.gif)

Humans are just another animal on this plante, we are born, we mate, we die....we rot, thats it....because we have a hugher brain function we seem to think it makes us ultra special and we must have some devine god that made us all....and we actually cant ever imagine nothing....as in, no thought, no breathing, n life, a human mind just cant imagine it...

We will all die, our bodies will rot...end of.

Exactly, using that logic when I die I will be in land of unicorns, pixies, and all the drugs and candy I want...for FREE! ALSO there will be things that arn't here like gum that never loses its flavor. Anyone else wanna make a religion? Look at all the people who have done it already!

I was raised in a christian church, then i realized that its more of a bussiness than a religion. think about it, an offering tray is passed around. Why? cant they just put it by the door. and stop waisting their surmon on money. if ppl dont want to donate they shouldnt have to listen to reasons why they should. most churches now days spend more time talking about the money than they do God, its pathetic
