Howdy Folks

[Jenny A]

I am Rogue. I am here as a middle man. I am not atheist. I am NOT religious. I am spiritual.

I do not judge and I do not preach.

I believe in a Higher Power. I do not know what this Power is, I have an idea on where it came from.

I believe in the human Spirit. I believe our spirit connects us to this Power.

I am open to any and all questions.

Nice to meet you all. I look forward to our future conversations.

Welcome, but I can't see you as a middle man. You sure aren't atheist, but you don't recognize organized religion. Falling between two stools is more like it. I don't see any evidence of you higher power, therefore I don't believe in it. Religious folks adamantly believe in something rather more specific.

I don't believe in the human spirit either, at least not if you mean something like a soul. We are here. We are important to ourselves and each other. But I don't think we exist outside our physicality.

I do have a question though. In what way does your higher power change the way we should live or view the universe?

from the UK.

Pull up a pew, make yourself at home and help yourself to a cup of tea.

I believe in the human Spirit.

So do I but I use the lower-case, deliberately. I'm asupernaturalist so I avoid the connotations of the capital letter.

Oooookayyy, I'll play ... are you a cross dresser, shape shifter, claiming to be some inter-dimensional creature out to enlighten us poor mortals, or figure you know more about the cosmos than has been discovered by most of humanity over the last 10,000 years or so?

Let's see just how crazy you are first then, maybe, it will be worth seeing if you have anything interesting to say.

How do I know you're not crazy? Do you have a statistic on the beliefs of psychotics?

Tip to talking to a Spiritual person:
1.Don't call them mentally ill

You may or may not be mentally ill. But claiming knowledge of a "higher power" certainly puts you in the "questionable" category.

2.Don't use ad-hominem

I will suggest you not do the same

3.Arrogance is discouraged

Sorry, you already failed that one with the suggestion that you know something us poor atheists haven't been able to figure out. I'll match your arrogance one-for-one. Live with it.

4.Mockery makes you look like a donkey

Mockery works just fine when the person talking is begging to be mocked.

5.Don't miss-quote them

Don't need too. Eventually quoting them word for word is all it takes to highlight the silliness of their "woo".

I know for a fact that I've told you how good you look in green

I was right

ETA: I even like that you thought about wearing it for me earlier

She likely looks awesome in a green dress.

Better with said dress pooled around her ankles?
