I have given it some thought after reading some definitions of what pantheism is and is not and since I don't follow some people's idea of what pantheism is,... (A.E. the Nature collective) I am hereby shedding that label.

I haven't decided if I am an atheist or an agnostic when it comes to God.... so I guess since I can't prove God one way or another I guess I will have to say that I am agnostic.... (unless of course I am actually God.) I don't want to be God, so I am going to settle on agnostic.

In any case, I probably shouldn't even be posting in the religion forums. This makes the third time in my life I have adjusted my core belief system. It now stands at: I don't know.

In not knowing, I find myself with nothing to discuss.

what exactly is agnostic? i think life is about learning no matter what your beliefs. nothing wrong with changing what label you are.

It's not for me, its for all those other people who insist on a label.

It's not really a dilemma, actually I feel rather grounded now.bigsmile

When my mind is blank, as it often is, I get into my head for some serious introspection. Occasionally I find more than cobwebs, like the time I found that missing sock that I thought was lost in the laundry. Whodathunk it? laugh laugh laugh

Those cobwebs, for me, turn into Psychological concepts... even if I haven't read about them yet................

I should be so fortunate. The best I can hope for is hearing the script of Forest Gump playing between my ears. Sucks getting old.bigsmile

If we don't need to believe in anything then it does not matter.
But I am asking: Do we need to believe in something? Do we need to find out where our heart is and what if any part of it is God?

If you don't believe in anything, what is there to life? Death? Joy? Love? Cold? A pancreas?

Virgin might have meant "young woman" in the old tongue. But you can never know for sure... might have meant the total opposite of virgin. I bite my thumb, not in that way, but in innocence!

Let me tell you how that could have happened if it did, perhaps she was abducted by aliens and inseminated and put back with her memory removed. It could happen. bigsmile
