Do you have a faith?

Also I'd like to give my 2 cents.

This isn't an argument, this is a debate, learn the difference as it might help you later on.
 
I believe there is a higher power yes. I don't align myself with any exact faith but I guess if I had to meld myself in with any group it'd be Christianity.

I think we should all convert to the one true faith, Pastafarian.

Yessss. We should all worship the Flying Spaghetti Monster.(:
 
I honestly don't know at this point.
I mean, I kind of want to believe that there's a point to life besides just being a tiny part in an endless cycle, and I don't want to be wrong and have to suffer eternally.
The thing is, religion's become little more than politics. This past week, I learned that it's apparently a mortal sin to vote for anyone that is pro-abortion. I don't know what that is, but it's not religion.

So yeah.

I actually feel more "warm and fuzzy" inside when I think that we are just small insignificant particles part of an endless cycle of death and evolution. One day, the particles in our body might be part of star, or planet, or animal, or another person. We ARE the universe.

Sort of. It's complicated, I'm not really sure what I believe right now.
Yeeaah, I used to be like that, I even was an atheist (I'm young it doesn't really count).. but my old friend helped me.

Christian.

But your friend "helped" you? What?

What's your family's religion?
If your family was a religion, would you let another person convince you to believe in their religion, if you strongly believed your family's religion? I would never, ever, let that happen.

What?

So you're saying that you'd only believe in what your parents believe in?

I'm saying, if you strongly believe in a religion, why try to let others convince you?

So basically, be closed minded?

More than likely, it wasn't a matter of letting them preach to her, but more along the lines of some of the things they said and did affected her and made her curious about the Christian faith.
