On Religion

The Religion Test at Tickle says that his religion is 'unitarian universalism'. Kinda cool huh. Results show that he is attracted to a religion that tolerates mixed beliefs about the existence of God and upholds the idea that there is something to be learned from every religion. He is open to a wide variety of religious and spiritual ideas. He is attracted to spiritual groups that are composed of typically open-minded and intellectual people who actively engage in individual exploration of many different spiritual truths.

A visit to the church on Sunday has still left many burning questions unanswered. He is for now unconvinced that the Bible is anything more than a fairytale, but he concedes that there is only so much a human brain can comprehend using logic. It's back to the issue of faith vs logic. The iconoclastic boy has always based his perceptions on logic. Where faith is present, it's merely faith in his logic, reagardless of its inherent limits. His perception of life over the past 21 years has been based on his 'invented' religion/philosphy that comes from studying science, maths, life experiences and a bit of reading on philosophy and major religions. A relatively unpolished philosophy/religion he thinks, but he is satisfied. What happens in the future he leaves it up to fate. There is only 1 thing he believes in now, and it's fate...

Quote of the Day
I am satisfied with the mystery of life's eternity and with a knowledge, a sense, of the marvelous structure of existence— as well as the humble attempt to understand even a tiny portion of the Reason that manifests itself in nature.
-Albert Einstein
