When I was very young, I had no belief in God or other deities.
I sung hymns at school, but did not know why I was singing them.
I just knew, everybody else in my class was doing the same thing, so I joined in.
From here I was told by many that a God did exist.
I was also told by many others that this was a load of bull.
I had African, Polish, Pakistani, Indian, Greek, and West Indian friends, and most had their own beliefs.
This made me very confused, so by the age of twelve, I did not believe anybody about Omnipotent beings of any kind.
Then I got hooked on the paranormal, and investigated that for years.
After digging quite deep, I came to the conclusion that this too is about as believable as an Omnipotent being.
I learned about drugs, and prostitution at a very early age, as most of my neighbourhood smoked weed, and prostitutes sold their wares within sight of my home.
As I suffered from childhood asthma, the drugs never interested me, as they had to be smoked.
Then at the age of fourty, I tried some extract of MJ and took a flight out of this world.
Now hooked on the promise of something 'otherworldy' I did tons of research into the effects of drugs.
MJ is a useful too for some people needing alternate treatments, but it was not for me.
I joined dreamviews looking for answers, but find that everyone seems to be at a similar level of experience.
It may be sad, but I have lost all belief in almost everything.
I do not believe in an Omnipotent God
I do not believe in life after death.
I do not believe in Angels/Demons
In fact, I have lost almost all assumed beliefs that I had been told about.
This has left me feeling somewhat empty.
Does anybody on here have personal experiences that could change my opinions.
I am not talking about what they were shown, or taught/told by others.
I am talking 'experiential' - What actualy happened in your experience.
Or have you found another source of inspiration in your life?
( Moderator apology - I was not sure if this should be in Religion, or Philosophy, so I stuck it in here )
