not an atheist, and only somewhat an agnostic....mix in a bit of Buddhist philosophies and a whole lot of reality and knowledge about people (street smarts) and you get me.
Frankly I live in the here and now...to be completely honest I never have been able to picture myself as "old" or "older". My future is blank when I think about it. I've always had this odd feeling I'll not live very long, not suicidal just a weird feeling that I'm not going to live to be 50 or 60 or whatever. Turning 20 this year is a shock to me....I was shocked I made it to 18, let alone 19.

I have been raised in a Missionary Baptist church and have continued my beliefs in adulthood. I have read everyone's post and see how some can think that churchgoers are hypocrits. But I feel that we are all in the same boat. Just because I go to church and believe in God does not mean that I am perfect, nor that I try to be. I worship Him and do my best to live my life the way He wants. Not because I am afraid of hell; but because I feel that it is right. That is all that matters, right? I also think it's really cool that everyone can believe so differently and still get along.

I was raised an atheist,and find organised religion quite horrifying, but i'm still not sure what I indivdually believe. I like to think there is something better than this, but maybe more in hope than actual expectation. I like the idea of Karma but whether I believe it I'm not certain... so um agnostic?
