Sometimes the best thing about religion is you can release stress with prayer and place your life, hopes, and dreams in someone elses hands.... But since God/Gods are busy taking care of others who are a little more needy. We need to do a little to help ourselves get the gender we have been praying for. Just remember not to curse God/Gods if he doesn't answer your prayers.
I was raised a Catholic but in the past few years I've studied Nichiren Buddhism. I'm beginning to just believe in good vs. bad with no labels attached. There are so many things about organized religion I just don't agree with (no offense, anybody).
No offense at all. I believe in a personal relationship w/ my savior, not an organized religion. I think there is a big difference.Quote:

This has been really interesting! Thanks for sharing. I was raised methodist christian. I am a believer in the power of a spiritual life, however my Christian upbringing never really felt like the right way for me. I have had a few experiences with meditation and prayer which were very very intense and powerful, however I don't consider myself a follower of any particular religion.
We are Episcopalian.
