*Wishes she had bookmarked the section, but doesn't feel like rereading all of The Bible to find it*

There is this one place in the Old Testament of the Bible where I could have sworn they spoke of other gods, but I cannot be sure...I wish I had bookmarked it. I'm not sure if they voiced them as evil, good, whatever...

If you look: all religions overlap. That's why I think that they are all true. It is because of our belief in them that they exist. If we did not believe in them, none of them would exist...

We do not know the power of the human mind, is another way to see it. We don't know what it is capable of. We only use about 3% of it, maybe we unconsciously use another 2% of it that might make what we believe true. You never know. It may just be because I believe in so much magic in the world that I believe in it, but yes, I seriously do believe this.

Also makes me feel better about myself when people claim I am going to Hell just because I was never Christened/Baptized/whatever you do...I don't do any of it. I am happy with my Spiritist/Wicca/Buddhist outlook, thank you very much, and, if I believe in something else, those people that insult me will be the first to know! And: I don't want you to change your religion because your religion is right as well, I honestly believe! Just live as you desire, I was just telling you of my personal outlook on life and I don't think that anyone should care what other people's religions are, I was just supporting a statement of mine that was questioned, something I learned to do in Debate on the comment

I am going to really regret posting this...sorry Vala I didn't want to turn your thread into an arguement. But c'mon, VanimaEdhel, opposing viewpoints cannot be all correct.
And: worry not: I am not posting on this thread any more, I just wanted to say my opinion with that last post *points*, but felt that I should further support my argument...
