Armian, can I ask you an honest question. I know you have such strong faith in god and religion but, what do you think about Atheism?

The faith is not in a religion buddy. Religions try to say they come in the name of God, but many times they just make their own rrules and so. However, following God is quite diffferent cause it starts in oneself. It is something totally personal. God make the invitation and we are free to accept or refuse to allow him to be inside our lives. Now about atheism, my6 opinion is not important. It is what God's opinion defines about it. God loves us all despite we believe or not in him. he makes the invitation to us all, so we decide to follow him and to be part of his divine plan about this world an beyond the etenity. However, when we just decide not to pay attention, God is always there with the open doors with the hope we can decide to see what the wporld usually can't and to be close to him forever. In the opposite case, Gos is sad when somebody just misses the chance and is destined to be away forever. The pain of that person in the eternity is his, but there is nothing we may be able to do as it was always our decision. God bless all of us and allow us to see more than we usually can <3 *hugs*

Well said, Armian. Very, very well said.

I've grown severely out of favour with institutionalised religion. It's become more and more clear to me that Organised Religion has become a tool to misdirect and manipulate people for their own ends. From child molestation to inciting of violence and intolerance. it's become clear to me that no one should tell you what your faith should be, much less anyone who claims to be part of these religious organisations. I now have immediate distrust of the true motives of anyone claiming to be an "Imam," a "Rabbi," or a "Pastor," unless they prove to me otherwise.

I believe religion is something personal. I believe in a god, I well and truly do, but I certainly do not believe in the form of Islam that I've been taught all these years. I still call myself a muslim, but I'd rather carve my own path. I'm not a "Sunni" or a "Shia" or a "Sufi" or a "Salafi" or a "Wahabi" or any of those sects of Islam

My dear bud. I never said we can just adapt God to our interests and preferences. Many times we do that and we think we do things right, but then God teaches us he needs to be the guide, and it is when we need to pray to him for guide and wisdom to follow him as he really wants and to be blessed to find other epople who do the same and to grow together in a fraternal love. That's somethign God really wants, and even more things we still need to learn. Religions pretend to make people believe they do that, but the follow their interests as you indicate, so it is a fact many people see God as seeing them. That's another of the games of the devil.

God invites us to follow his path dear bud. The point is if we want or not. Nobody forces us, but at the end, only people who really follow him will be eternally with him. God bless you

To be honest im not believing in god. I hope its no problem

There's a lot of things I need to fix. Primarily to be closer to God, I need to get these things right, but also because if I'm more the person He wants me to be, I can be a better influence on my friends, and be better for them.

I don't completely belive in god, but when it can become helpful, it can maybe help.

They have a very strong message in them. I need lots of that a lot cause I need a good church and haven't been lucky here sadly. <3
