But when I was in second or third grade I learned what the word "agnostic" meant and I knew that was me.<BR/><BR/>Fortunately, though my parents dutifully sent me to Sunday school to expose me to organized religion, they let me stop going when I wanted to quit, and I've never looked back.<BR/><BR/>I don't have "beliefs" per se because I think that this stuff is unknowable. I also think any belief system is totally subject to wishful thinking, self-serving prejudice, and all kinds of other all-too-human ways of viewing things.<BR/><BR/>While there are times having more of a spiritual life might be comforting, I can't make myself believe something just because it would be nice if it were true. I envy people who have it all worked out, but I'm fundamentally a skeptical person. (Shocking, I know!)<BR/><BR/>Gosh, didn't mean to go on and on.

It's all part of opening ourselves up. Good for you for accepting this and flowing with the current.<BR/>I took the quiz and --shock surprise--found myself 100% neo-pagan. Oddly, I was only 92% new age.<BR/>There's room for everybody and every faith.Leah J. Utashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08497599109798015888noreply@blogger.com
