I'll start off by saying I 100% do not believe in a god or any powerful deity/supreme being. However I do have beliefs that don't involve a god of any sort.
I believe that all of life is comprised of energy, Aether, and when we die it flows into essentially this grand Life stream of aether spanning all of existence, more specifically Earth. When we die we rejoin the complete stream, and remain for a variable length of time until returning to earth in some form, be it human, animal, plant, etc. When we die again we join up with our complete set of aether and basically remember everything of our past lives, and eventually are reborn and come back through the infinite march of time. This cycle of rebirth is an Aetherflow.
Recap: All of life composes Aether that follows an individual Aetherflow that goes from one life to the Lifestream and back.
This being said, some of my friends and I are not quite certain if my Aether beliefs make me distinctly *not* an atheist, or if my lack of belief in a deity is all that is required to be able to appropriately and logically use that term to describe myself. Or if it's really up to me.
Your thoughts?
YOu may or may not be atheist. You certainly are not evidence-based.
