    Well... what is extreme atheism and how could it be dangerous and irrational? (I base that question on battleearl's video)

    I personally believe something complex and oddly specific. Basically I believe in one conscience that exists within all sentient beings, human or otherwise, and though I am a humanist and I believe in free will, I also believe that if any one person were in any other persons shoes, he/she would do all of the things that that person does.(because of this, there can be no good or evil, as even Hitler thought he was good, and that his enemies were evil) Simply because we all have the same mind, simply in different situations. I consider genetic factors regarding the mind and conscience to be apart of these situations.

    Because of this, I believe that after we are all one being, controlled by one conscience, and that when we die, instead of reincarnating, or ascending to another world, we unite to our true, one form, and know the truth about the universe and it's creation. Basically, you are your neighbor.

    Because of this, I believe that we all, and indeed all things, exist concurrently and that time is an illusion created by our minds. And that wherever someone else is right now is where they are as far into their life as you are now. Let me explain. I am about 16 years, three months, and fifteen days old right now, and if I were to jump into your head, I would be that exact amount of time into your life.

    But maybe that is not important.

    I believe that the purpose of our lives is to have fun, enjoy life, be a generally kind person, not judge people, and live for now, however you want. Rules that do not protect people from direct harm are not laws, but hindrances to the fulfillment of your own life. Because of this, things like recreational drugs, marijuana, shrooms, alcohol, are not damaging to the mind but rather windows into how life should be.

    I also believe in nonviolence. That violence should not be used unless in protection of a life, belonging to you or anybody else. That death should not be mourned, but instead life celebrated. You know, like how the Mexicans do it.

    Wait, hold up, maybe I got outta hand. I think I ventured too far out of religion.

    Tldr; Other.

    You're on shrooms!


    btw part of your theory was somewhat similar to the Human Instrumentality Project:eek: (beacause of the one conscience, unification etc...)

    When your shirt has the word SLAYER on it and the upside down cross people flip out, and when you try to explain to them that the upside cross represents the Crucifixion of st.peter, they yell at you and call you satanist.

    I am a Roman Catholic Christian. Now, That being Said, I am not ultrareligious and i don't doubt Science as much as other Catholics might, but I still believe in God and Jesus. I am not Anti-Atheist Either. I believe God exists, though i cannot prove it, and i don't intend to go Inquisition on people :p
