OK....anyway Buddhism cannot be linked with Christianity, Buddhists don't follow the Bible.

As far as believing in anything per se goes, i can't FEEL it so I don't believe in any god / gods... of course, if somebody else does, that's cool :D i'm not going to tell someone off because of what they think.

anyway, not being able to believe in any particular religion doesn't mean i can't accept parts of it; maybe not the "god" bits, but every religion teaches something of value, so taking some lessons or positive ideas, like respecting others or what-have-you -- those are all worthy concepts.

For me though, i just... believe in nature and biology and life and sometimes, when they're not being idiots, i believe in people.

My biggest problem is that i have trouble believing anything-- that i exist, for one; until i get over that (the idea gives me anxiety attacks... seriously, so i won't talk about it for long because that will start my brain going) i don't think i could believe in anything larger than life, so to speak...

Atheism is not a religion, it is the lack of religion. And by lack of religion I don't simply mean not believing in a god or gods, but also not having a system of religious beliefs. For example, buddhists don't believe in a god, but Buddhism is a religion nonetheless.
i don't agree with you.atheim does not appear at the time of leckness of god belief or religion.may be buddhists has no god belief ,but they have an after life belief,they have a mystic contents of life theories ,these things makes buddhism a religion.i quit not decided it myself but think atheism is a religion (may be).yes it is simply the refuse of all of the gods and anything related to these but it is a system of belief (even being a total refuse)....

well not so much suprised ,bec. al of these religions are from the middle east,mesopotamia origined all(the 3 most known religions ,judaism ,christianity and the islam).we already know that india is so near tto the mesopotamia .there can be some relations between these two religions .if we search the sumerian culture and then look at these 3 religions we can find many similarities (cataclysm,adam,eve and lilith ,genesis and some other different parts ...)

yeah, i've often wondered the same thing...whether people pray to more archaic gosd.. especially right now with this fascination (in metal) with Nordic stuff. I wonder how many people really consider their Viking ancestors with seriousness or if it's just sort of a trend??

Somehow, I just can't picture this. Christians and Buddhists would probably have too many conflicting doctrines (or whatever you want to call it).
Somehow I still have an account...yay...?

I believe that I don't believe when I'm believing on something what is said that it's good to believe, but sometimes I believe that you should believe in believing power, but sometimes I don't believe that you should believe in believing power, but after all I believe that believin power works those who believe in believing power and believing power doesn't work on those who don't believe in believing power. Whoaah :shock:

Did you get it??? :D

Btw I believe that there might be some god but it's ok if it doesn't exist.
