Perhaps it's the 50,000 "bust a cap" threats. Hee hee...

So what is the deal with Atheists. They don't believe in any kind of higher power?? What about energy? Maybe that there is some life force??

I'm confused, cause I'm not so sure that there is some guy in a white robe and we call him God.

How does everything in the universe seem to "work" isn't there some life force/energy behind that??

I'm more confused now

(huddles down in corner and looks around)

Here comes the nonsensical posts.

I'm not sure if you are seirous or not about Satanism, but if so, what kind do you practice and why. If you don't mind me asking.

Well, that's not fair...

If I told you, I'd have to make a voodoo doll and stick pins in it. We can't go there.

Episcopalian. We don't consider ourselves to be either Catholic or Protestant.

Raised Episcopalian even though my father was raised Lutheran. Married a Baptist but soon converted him

CPG, why do we still have prayers for the Catholic church if we are not considered part of the Catholic church? Have you figured that out yet? I thought Henry VIII took care of ties being severed a long time ago

Religion (or lack thereof) of Relationship Forum posters

I'm wondering why the OP decided to single the RELATIONSHIP posters out and not anybody else. Like we're some protected class or something. It's as if he's saying all of us here in RELATIONSHIPS are immoral and vile or something.
