Fine discuse lolz i just don't want any fighting here that's all. Have fun! I'll be on later and chat abit too i supose.
Okay, i'm back lolz. The Pagan that FireTail was talking about was me. I am being raised in a Roman Catholic home but when I was 12 I started being curious about Totems and Power Animals and Familiars. My mom found out that I had e-mailed this guy about it and said that I was not allowed to have any faith but her's until i am 18 but that my e-mail was very mature. Now I am 14 and belive in the Three Fold law, the Wiccan Rede, I have contacted two Power Animals a wolf and a lion. I have no Familiar and I am still studying off and on the traditions and wide variety of belifes of Pagans. I am still findind out who I am and what I belive but I know I belive that who or whatever the great divin is flows through everythign and everyone. I belive in the Goddes of the moon but i'm not sure if i belive in a god anymore. I still feel pulled towadrs the one and only god and my mother's religion but inside I just don't belive it enough not to call myself a Witch.
Okay, so there's my opinion. If it offends anyone I am deeply sorry!

I could be considered a lot of different things...I just have different ideas on how I should praise God and what beliefs I should have. I don't go to church, and my mom keeps saying we should, but I don't want to because a lot of churches force you to believe in what THEY believe in. I don't like that. I like free will.
I guess I'm wiccan or pagan, too, cuz I am deeply into religion in nature....who knows.

My mom said you don't have to go to church, that's just a way to praise with fellow people in your religion

Well Wiccan is just the most popular branch of Paganism. I myself study mostly Wiccan but belive in things that Wiccan's don't. I think that's called electic Wiccan lolz. As I said I'l still learning about who I am. But I have two power animals by the names of Nyx(pronounced Nox) and Leo. Right now i'm learning form Leo.

i personally am a deep scientific guy but knowing more about the facts or life only made me a stronger christian. do you know if expasion of the universe had been 1/10000000000 of a second or something like that slower the universe would have colasped into a giant fireball. and if you took all the carbon and gave the earth optimal conditions for life the chances of it happening is like you would wait for a eternity and life would most likely not come to be. these are the facts! and evelution is in tatters. and for all you nonbelivers out there THE POWER OF CRIST COMPELLS YOU TO CONVERT!lol joking but i do belive you should convert.

For people who only beleive in science & no religion, here is something I learned in Biology. The cell is the fundamental unit of structure and function in living things. All organisms are made up of one or more cells. All cells come from pre-existing cells through cellular division. Here's the thing. If all cells come from other cells. . . how did the first cell come into existance? ? How was it created? Scientifcally speaking, I'm curious.

Well I had seen a little bit of a special on TV about how evolutionists are thinking the first cell came to be, I can't remember. I'm going to make a Creation vs. Evolution thread about some facts I know since this topic has come up a couple of times now.

Just thought I'd add another quote/story in; "A man had died, and was going up to heaven. He saw his life before him, and saw two pairs of footsteps all throughout his life, except for the roughest times of his life. He saw God, and asked him "I see you walked with me throughout my life, except when I needed you most. Where did you go?" God said "I never left you, but carried you through"
I'm not saying I believe in this stuff, I'm more of a Wiccan myself, but this was on a teacher's board and I couldn't resist.

woah, hah, thats kinda deep ^_^. But i believe in God. He doesn't always answer your prayers in a way you would expect. I guess i just want to say that, God doesn't always answer your prayers, he gives you the oppertunity to figure them out. Like, if you're confused about something, he will guide you through it, he's pretty much a a mirical worker. You just have to look a little harder to find his power!.
Can i get an amen?
-whispers- amen. ^_^
