[Whateverist]

hello & welcome
I have to be nice in this section....

i will unapologetically & repeatedly demand evidence for every claim made involving magical sky wizards
i believe nothing & have no faith in anything. i simply know or don't.
see below

I on the other hand have a great deal of faith in a great many things. God just doesn't happen to be one of them. I think religious people personify 'God' way too much. They also are quick to assume authoritative sources such as the bible are correct for their own convenience and comfort. Whatever else 'god' may be, it is a mystery. To understand why prayer and reverence give people comfort I think it is better to assume that the 'Other' that is beseeched is as much the product of ones own psyche as is the mystery of ones own identity.

Though I place a great of value in knowledge, I recognize the limitations of reason and acknowledge that I take on faith a great many things. To do otherwise would be to live a life of minimal and restricted humanity. I'm just not drinking anyone's koolaid.

Hi and welcome to the forum!


I'm not familiar with your religion so I'm curious, what's the difference between Seventh Day Adventists and other Christian sects, aside from the day of the week that you choose to meet?

Also, why does it matter what day you meet on in the first place?

It may matter to some people what day is to be kept holy.

I'd be curious to know what keeping a day holy exactly means to you. Also, why should some days get less holy regard than others?

But welcome to the forums. I like your point of view already and hope you find enough of interest to stick around.
