Greetings everyone!   

In and amongst the Administration staff it has been a continuing topic of discussion over the ages here, when the issue of being sensitive to everyone beliefs enters the mix again so to speak.

In this spirit, it became apparent that the best way was to devise a completely "Anonymous" questionnaire to give us an idea of exactly who and what various faiths and beliefs make up the population of our community. This might also give some idea to everyone about the demographics that steer many conversations as well as giving some idea to all just why we try so hard to be tolerant and patient about everyone's beliefs here at DE. The "Other" category was included to be a catch basin for the remaining persuasions of belief that were not separately included but can be also identified in post form should you wish.

We really are looking for a clear and concise number of responses that indicate this aspect of our demographics.

This is not to be considered an area for any debate or philosophy on any beliefs, but simply is a demographic exercise that might be used for site purposes as a matter of Forum design etc. Any debating of others beliefs will have to be removed from this thread, but do please feel free to detail your own belief if you wish! 

If your belief is not detailed as a choice and you chose the "Other" option, you are also welcomed to add it by name and/or detail also in post form.

Thank you very much everyone for your cooperation in this!

Peace>

In these past months, I have been in a process of distillation, and have come to the conclusion that I am simply Dark Pagan. There are deities with whom I feel a kinship, although I do not honor any particular one over the others.

I've been thinking alot lately about how my vampirism is very much a part of my spiritual path, and how I might integrate that into my life as a practice. It's an ever-evolving thing for which there is no owner's manual or map or GPS. 
So we have the oft-used but true cliche: The answers are within.

Belief in a Universal Creator , but Not any dogma associated with traditional organized religions.  Universal energy manifests itself in many ways.

Bump

I believe in chaos magic...

So it a bit of everything as it suit me!!

I take some of all religion to form my own personal one that cannot be share with anyone! Cause it ultimately reflect my own spiritual path...

I hope you catch my drift!

I have no religion or lack there of. I am not religious solely for the fact that religion can be corrupted, argued with, and eventually removed from society all together. That said, I have a faith. A faith is personal in every form and can only be changed by the will of s/he who holds that particular faith. I don't really follow any stereotypical basic system of beliefs. I take out of life and put into life what best suits and productively affects those around me at the time. I put forth as much positive and as little negative as possible. That is basically my belief system. If you want to talk to me about god, feel free to PM me. I will not violate the set grounds for this post. Other than that, that's the way I feel about the subject. Thank you Allin for bringing it up  . Peace be with you all.
