Do u believe

[SexiiHales]

Everyone asks me do i believe in god, and when i tell them yes they act so shock because i tell them that i don't go to church. Why is that shocking. i find no need to prove my faith to anyone. i can't sit in a church for hours having pages of the bible read to me, those anyone else feel the same, or do you believe going to church shows ur love for god.

[RighteousRob]

It's not all that uncommon anymore to see people who say they believe in God and don't go to church, but going to church isn't about proving your faith, it's about wanting to learn more about the Lords word. About being around a positive environment, and being around others who share your faith with you. The bible does not say you have to go to church, but it is statistically proven that those with more faith usually are there.

[Candy_Romance]

Screw what the people say....you don't need to prove your faith to anyone. I don't see why you would have to go to church. You study your religion right? You believe god exists and follow what he says so what more must you do? Righteousbob actually put a very beautiful answer. Erm I don't agree with the last sentence though. It's not who has more faith it's just having faith in god. Kind of like when you do good deeds....in European history (sorry this was a while ago so I might mistaken it) people did good for salvation but if you believed in god and had faith you would just naturally want to do good...go to church if you want or don't go. It shouldn't be the factor of how much of whatever.

[Kaiser7]

sorry SexiiHales. no i don't. i find it odd to have faith when i have never met god or seen him help those in need. n no, going to church does not mean you love god more or less...

[fire_neeno]

well if the world were created by the mere exeistance of one person, then the world of Seria would not exist. In fact the worlds behond this very world have very much right to exist without scientest theories or god's creations. Never less, The world has thus been taken by the world of Seria. Not owned, but re-created of another generation of humans on another world.
Believe in what you human think, and i shall believe in what the voices of our planets many ancectors have said over the millenium. "Forgive but not forget". "Listen to our past, and that will create your future." Echos of our voices have fallen upon deaf ears.
Why don't you humans want to listen?
Love on this planet is pathetic.
Why you might ask? Well look around, past your family, past your girlfriend or boyfriend and see; the once preserved earth that many a hand has created, to be crushed between firm hands and destroyed.

Humans, you have learned your lesson more than once, The people of Seria think it's time to face a new plan of action.
Yes, The time the sun burns out, is the time this world shall die.
From the few pieces we collect of this earth and time, We shall create and keep creating a new earth.
Remember: What ever you do to 'help' and 'save' this world, will not help.

First... ^Wow...
Back to the topic at hand..

I will say i have faith, Faith in god, power, prayer, whatever you call it.
i neither go to church, nor have i read the bible, my only claim to a religious faith is through my family and the times i do go to church, which is on holidays as a family ritual.
do i believe in god, yes i believe in a higher power, do i belive it protects and guides us, yes that too. i dont worry what ppl think about my feelings on religion. cause i will take things in stride, We may figure out the world and how it runs, till then im going to enjoy the ride, faith is a wonderful thing.

you do not wish to take this and grasp the faith in your hand? hmmmmmm drastic measures will be taken therefore, you and others will see the concecences.

[74|\||\|3R]

I have my own beliefs as i make them. ^^ i have no reason to change my view, though i feel open to new facts.

[fire_neeno]

live it like you want, for you are a mere human in a shell.

[Draak]

^as are you, no matter how hard you deny it young fire, you are nothing more than a flame burning it's life away. We are all flames, even I, even obama or the pope, we are lit when we are born, and we dye as the flame goes out. We mate with other flames, grow and learn what wind to look for and what rains to stay away from. No one is immortal, no one is above the one that made us so. Either evolution or god, there is no one greater than that. Do not think of yourself as higher and defiantly do not belittle others, for there are those that care, and those who do not. learn the difference, learn to grow, learn to forgive and let the past be that. I am no more a flame as you are, so stop this whole human act, and be yourself. Believe what you want to believe, who really cares? just don;t act higher than others, when all living things are equal. All living things are a flame. Do not mock the flame of life.

@topic: I believe there is a god, i do not go to church and i say my share of curse words and have had the same pervy thoughts as everyone else. I am human, i am a flame, i will die, and i have a simple goal, to die of old age. How and what life or god, or evolution may throw at me, i will take it and move on. No one is immortal, no one should force others on a religion, or to go to church. It is our right to believe what we want and do so in a non belittling way.

[Yiew]

Lets keep this on topic.

Fire - I have NO idea what you are trying to say or portray, but keep it on topic or else.

As for me -
I do not believe in a higher power. But that doesnt mean I dont believe people cant express or celebrate their beliefs despite the fact they dont go to their house of worship.
Christians + Church for example.
If you are happy, thankful and respectful, then you are doing 'Gods' work and worth. If you believe you are doing right in the world and dont see that you need to go to Church, then by all means you dont have to. Live YOUR life, the way YOU want to. Express your faith in ways YOU wish.

Some people also use Church as an excuse. The most horrid of people could say 'Well I go to Church therefore my sins are nulled' Compare this to a good hearted person who doesnt go to Church, there is a difference.

[Ockedy]

Why are you speaking ill of your own kind? You are human just like the rest of us. What makes you think you have any right to judge any of us on what we believe in.
And how is love pathetic? Love from our family, friends and mates are what binds the soul together instead of ripping it apart. So love, given and shown, is what makes us who we are apart from our human pod’s of a body.
And you saying that love is pathetic just makes you sound like a bitter human bean.
And umm.. What is the world of Seria? >.>
And are you saying that we should try to help this earth or not? You say that us humans are destroying this once beautiful world and then you say that that it doesn’t matter if we help or not so we shouldn’t bother? o.O
You speak of this pain you and the earth feel. I felt that pain too and when I did I couldn’t be more disgusted with the world, but I either live with it or try to help.
Your only 14 and it seam’s you have quite a lot of growing up to do.

Back on topic :P
I do believe in God but I don’t go to church. I just go sometimes to feel reconnected with my religion and be around people who share the same beliefs as me.
But I don’t think that going to church is what makes you a better or more holy person. Everyone has their own way of expressing their faith.

[Aura-chan]

isnt Seria a place in malaysia?

I believe in god, put I dont believe in the power of prayer, because though I believe god listens I dont think he does anything, either because he cant or wont I am not sure...

I say this based on the amount of times I prayed a child on my hospital ward wouldnt die, when I prayed he would take my pain when I was in agony with my disorder. I dont blame and am not angry at him for my disorder nor do I expect to be cured of it.

But there were times I prayed till I was exhausted...

As I said in other posts I am not very religious but I do believe in god, I dont want to sound bitter but this probably will.... those who have absolute faith in god those who believe in the power of prayer usually have lead a life with out a lot of struggle, suffering or pain, they haven't had desperate prayers unanswered so its easy for them to believe these things.

[l00dak]

I am an atheist myself, although in my opinion going to church doesn't, let's say, enhance your faith or whatever.

If I am correct Jesus himself said that no material structure could be considered as holy ground... Or something like that :)

Anyway, going to church doesn't matter in my opinion... If your faith is weak, no going to church would ever change it :O

[74|\||\|3R]

I believe in the power of prayer, even though you do make a valid points. And i can understand how such an attitude can develop. My only counter could be that prayer in and of itself may just serve to focus the energys of the person to rally against near impossible odds maybe prayer has less to do with gods will then our own. (You yourself can likely testify how strong the human will is.) i have seen a few things id classify damn near short of miracles. Do i believe god played a hand? I dont know. do i believe that there is a communal will or energy that maybe helped it along. id like to think so. But sometimes, there are miracles, be it flukes or not.
There are to many things i dont know that i hate to say its impossible ^^;

she has been like this since uber shattered her heart. just an fyi from one lurker always watching. And i think because of that pain, she is lashing out at others :(

back on topic:

DOC BELIEVES IN JUND!!!! HE FEARS KRESH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FEARS THE DEVOUR D:


o.o sorry, but i think most people are athiestist and that going to church is just a way to think they are forgiven for there sins by going to the "house of god" which btw if it really was the house of god, why do little kids get pedo's there <.<.....is god a pedo?

*clears throat* anyways, o.o most people are athiests.

[fire_neeno]

omg o wtf nvm. and no, Seria ish not in where ever u said....... its not exactly in this universe either.
I AM NOT LASING THIS OUT ON OTHER!!!!! :(

[Deekle]

Geesh there is a million of these threads. No, because I <3 Logic and reason.

[ever_SoaringDeath]

i pray that all of you soon will see what my dear friend fire-chan was saying.
Plz don't think here as rude, Draak-sama......
....She only wants to put our point across.

[Draconda]

I belive there's something or someone a higher power out there, but i don't think its neccesary to show your faith by going to a church. You can freely do it by staying home and showing your gratitude to your faith.

[Aura-chan]

omg o wtf nvm. and no, Seria ish not in where ever u said....... its not exactly in this universe either.
I AM NOT LASING THIS OUT ON OTHER!!!!! :(

*points* http://www.topix.com/my/pekan-seria


I dont know what you are trying to say or do fire but all your succeeding in doing is making people annoyed at you.

back on topic, I wish I could have more faith and more belief but after what I have seen its not happening...

[Molon_UK]

omg o wtf nvm. and no, Seria ish not in where ever u said....... its not exactly in this universe either.
I AM NOT LASING THIS OUT ON OTHER!!!!! :(

If you're still posting here when you're an adult, you're going to look back at your posts and laugh.

Anyhoo...

I believe in god, but do not go to Church.

[KswOppa]

lol!!!!!!!

id say if you believe in god <.< you should know ur self what to do

instead of asking other peaple o_o

[Ockedy]

I guess people believe that going to church makes them more of a good person because their going out of their way to make time for their God.

[osorio]

just go with the flow even do your not from this world you can make it yours lol

[honeynclover]

i believe in God, but i don't go to church either....i think, it's a horrible thing if you regularly go to church, but you waste your daily life doing a lot of mistake and sins, yet you act innocently and lecture other people....(and i know a lot of people doing this thing right?)

@fire_neeno
idk what your religion is, idk what seria is, i don't even know who you are, but why are you calling us human? and you aren't human? or you think you are better than us? no one should ever think that they are better than anyone else....you should know that if you're an adult and have some manner :p

you think love is a stupid? you think you can live alone? if no one loves you and took care of you when you were born, you already passed away right now....

it's okay if you don't believe in God or anything, but please behave yourself....the way you post at page 1 make a lot of ppl feel annoyed....

[Kurapica99]

I do believe in God and I go to church every Saturday
It's okay if you don't go to church often,one of my friends don't go to church but she believes in God.

[RighteousRob]

Do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart
How the music can free her, whenever it starts
And it's magic, if the music is groovy
It makes you feel happy like an old-time movie
I'll tell you about the magic, and it'll free your soul
But it's like trying to tell a stranger 'bout rock and roll

If you believe in magic don't bother to choose
If it's jug band music or rhythm and blues
Just go and listen it'll start with a smile
It won't wipe off your face no matter how hard you try
Your feet start tapping and you can't seem to find
How you got there, so just blow your mind

If you believe in magic, come along with me
We'll dance until morning 'til there's just you and me
And maybe, if the music is right
I'll meet you tomorrow, sort of late at night
And we'll go dancing, baby, then you'll see
How the magic's in the music and the music's in me

Yeah, do you believe in magic
Yeah, believe in the magic of a young girl's soul
Believe in the magic of rock and roll
Believe in the magic that can set you free
Ohh, talking 'bout magic

Do you believe like I believe Do you believe in magic
Do you believe like I believe Do you believe, believer
Do you believe like I believe Do you believe in magic



ok, i'll be honest with you, i know this has nothing to do with the topic, but the title has bothered me with this song every time i've seen it.. so i'm hoping this will satiate my desire to hear/think about the song when I see the title tread.

[Nathaniel]

Everyone asks me do i believe in god, and when i tell them yes they act so shock because i tell them that i don't go to church. Why is that shocking. i find no need to prove my faith to anyone. i can't sit in a church for hours having pages of the bible read to me, those anyone else feel the same, or do you believe going to church shows ur love for god.

absolutely not ..
well you see spending hours in the church doesn't show your belief in God
just ignore those shocked faces for once and think clearly
to make things better let's consider an example I hope it helps
say you are a non-vegetarian but ya don't eat beef does that make ya count as a vegetarian ??
the answer is simply no
the reason: because everyone follows their belief(s) /habit(s) in their own manner that 's one of the reason(s) which makes us all Unique ;D
that implies even people having similar beilief(s)/habit(s) have different ways of following them
..xD..

[Maucho182]

To be honest I have just read the original post, ADD kicked in.

I too believe in God/Jesus and never go to church. I know it's not THE perfect way to live my faith but that doesn't mean I don't try to be the best person I can be following God's teachings :]. I also pray a lot, and no, not just when I need stuff. God still hasn't given me that ferrari I long for lol ;_;.

I think going to the church needs to be a funner, more community type activity. I don't know about you guys but going to church in my place is a damn boring chore. In another life I'd like to be a priest, so I can make the lectures fun and make everyone love going to church and want to follow God's teachings through me. Till then, I think God will take into account what I do every day more than the boring lectures I missed, after all, In this case theory is worth a bit less than practice! ;P.

[Darkprodigy]

I believe in god anyway its better than having no god. It doesnt mean you have to fully believe in god or go to church every week, you must just have faith in god neither if its real or not. I just go when i feel like it and god to other people means everything to them but i wouldn't be that serious.

As aura-chan said about praying, i dont really know if he listens or watever, and peolple will do anything to believe and hope in someone that will answer their prays or problems. l will belive in god anyway but i dont know if its gona help me with my life.

[Manabe-Kun]

I believe in God .. Without doubt
And i do agree with most everyone here .. that .. You don't have to go to the church to improve your faithness ..
.. To be A Nice Kind Gentle Forgivness lovness ... That make you more faithful person .. And that also will close you from the Lord ..
So this my point ...

[Kirihito]

Glad to see no Fanatic-swarmers up in here! ^^(Sanctuary! XD).
Its your choice if you go to church or not....but...choose..going to church or doing something good?..i'd choose the 2nd one....
anyway....Church is only good for some people who dont get the Bible(thankfully i can get it ^^)...thats 3/4...the otehr 1/4 are the fanatics..the ones who make me sick of being a Christian -_-....the rotten ones who think they are superior when they are just another human being and can just put a sock i in ....BAH Sorry my rant >_<...
anyway..you dont ALWAYS have to go to church(unlike what others say)...AND
IGNORE WHAT THE OTHERS SAY...if they said"But you'll go to hell and eat sh** if you dont go to church"..tell them"WHO IN THE NAME OF F*** ARE YOU TO JUDGE?!?!?! even the POPE HIMSELF cant do that -_-*
so dont worry..trust me...ive been through that stage before(maybe worse)..but Screw em..i believe how i want to believe...let them die with their superiority complexes -_-



and if i offended anyone..SCREW YOU I DONT CARE IF YOU ARE A FELLOW CHRISTIAN...EVEN IF IM A FANATIC IM NOT SUPERIOR THEN THE OTHERS SO GET THIS STRAIGHT TO YOUR SKULLS GOT IT!?!?!?

and btw...Atheists DO have Morals..probably more then you could ever have dumbheads -_-
(example of that is Qawls) -_-..and some other countless pieces of crap...
Bah wahetever


Anyway to sum it up:
dont be afraid XD
screw them..
its your choice..
in the end its your acts(your belief in God-sama and the Lord Jesus Christ God-sama is only 1/2 way to Heaven..the other half comes from your life)..

example:If,lets say a rapists who rapes 50 loli and 25 teens aged 15-19,then says he is a believer...is he going to Heaven?i'd bet my ass he wouldnt -_-..but..what about another person?
who has done greatly kind acts,alot of sacrifices,and very humble...yet he doesnt believe in God because he hasnt heard of Him....then for a long shot i think he's going to Heaven....in the end its your acts towards LIFE and other parts of the Lord's creations..not how you worship him -_-(provided you DO worship him XD HAHAH0

edit:incase you want to have something to look at if they are crushing your head,these will suffice XD(PS:She is so kawaii)
