From Atheists to the most religious of the Christians. We all have religions, and we all believe what we do for various reasons. Perhaps someone grew up in a very strict household and following one's own works better than feeling forced to follow one. Perhaps finding one helped make your life better.
My take on religion is weird and I can be considered a heretic by the Abrahamic religions, and by the Pagans. I personally see the one God, the one who created us all is still the lord and the one true God. Though the greeks, Egyptians, and the like all looked at it with multiple aspects of life.
I see it as perhaps an aspect of God is one worth going towards should it help with how focuses on life. I classify as a Christian Pagan, as I see the pagan gods, the polytheistic ones, is just God split up in their minds to worship various aspects. Though one could also see them as Saints in a way for those that are catholic. These gods are just another version of saints or angels. Various aspects of God himself which help perhaps understand the greatness of him easier in some ways.
I personally follow the Religio Romana, with favor to Mars and Bellona as I am a soldier. I often have Minerva in there as well depending on what is going on. I see them as an Aspect of God that offers protection to those that are there to help protect those they do not know, even those that do not follow the same thing they do. I think of it like how the Crusaders were about the homeland, a reason I follow Bellona, Mars, and Minerva. They are the deities that focus on War in aspects. All three provide protection to the followers of them in battle, and offer their hand in combat at times, to provide the ones that follow them to victory. Bellona and Mars superficially. Minerva is of strategy, and during times when I know it will be helpful, to her it comes to allow me to succeed at that level for exercises and the like.
Tell me about yours and why you believe in yours, perhaps listen to what others think.
THIS IS NOT A THREAD TO JUDGE AND DEMEAN PEOPLE OF THEIR RELIGION
Please treat everyone's religion with respect and be civil. Be open to see why they think what they do. What they believe. Maybe you can understand why they think that. Maybe you won't.
We all know how things can differ within one religion, let alone when looking at others.
Let's discuss and hope we can understand how others think religiously
