Steel Accord 6,660 November 6, 2014 Share November 6, 2014 There are no other variations of the divine! You don't know that. I don't know that. No one can truly know. One can only have faith and act accordingly with what wisdom can be divined of the greater purpose to life and the universe. I'm not trying to say you're wrong, just expressing uncertainty. If you truly wished me to join, you should have offered some interpretation of the faith that you have come to through your practice. Instead you brand me the moment I express doubt. This leads me to believe you don't truly hold Celestia in any divine sense. If I'm wrong, present evidence to the contrary.

Untitled Goose Q 5,137 November 6, 2014 Share November 6, 2014 Taken from the Book of the Questioner, Chapter One, Get on with your life, fool. Thou shalt not tell me what to believe.

Steel Accord 6,660 November 6, 2014 Share November 6, 2014 What is this!? Logic? Rationality? A sensible argument? This leads me to believe that rather than genuine faith or even a thought experiment, you are deliberately attacking your perception of what organized religion is. That could be me projecting however, you could be making fun of those bronies who are in favor of one Princess to seemingly dogmatic exclusion. All joking aside, might you perhaps plainly confirm your intentions to me? Thou shalt believe whatever you like, as long as thou doest not shove it down my throat. You know that phrase is really starting to bug me. By itself, it means not forcing one's beliefs on another through a form of coercion. In practice though, many seem to hold that even just expressing or verbally sharing one's belief counts as coercion. I'm not accusing you of this, of course, just declaring that this is a growing tendency I've observed.

So has the invention of the printing press and the automobile, should we go back to scribes and horse buggies? If there was a universal authority that policed what humans should and shouldn't be capable of because of all the damage it could do, we wouldn't have left the Garden of Eden. (Intended to be metaphorical.) I appreciate your discretion though as well as your interest. Might I just express that even if all religions were to suddenly disappear, people would eventually create new ones. Religion is simply faith given a narrative and symbolic aesthetic. And as something of a hobbyist theologian, I'd be happy to discuss different practices I've researched. 2 My ponysona: http://mlpforums.com/page/roleplay-characters/_/steel-accord-r1970 My AMA thread: http://mlpforums.com/topic/76698-as-steel-me-andor-oc/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as something of a hobbyist theologian, I'd be happy to discuss different practices I've researched. You are certainly right there, though religion has arguably caused more problems than anything else... but humans would find more excuses to cause such problems, it would seem to be in our nature. And mostly what I'm interested in at the moment is the folklore aspects behind various stories in religious texts (the Old Testament is great for those!), various beliefs, and their possible origins.
