42. Belief is Also Based on Perception
After reading your post I thought a little about it. I'd say they really are the same... I believe in God for personal reasons. But my take on what God "is" is what defines "God's" existence. I see nature and I believe that is "God". I attribute God to all of life around us all.... not some man with a beard casting folks into hell and welcoming good folks to heaven. And I don't believe in angels flying around with harps, looking over our shoulders.

I say, to each his/her own... and may it have a positive eefect on your life, whether it be through science, excersise, or whatever else floats your boat. And no... I rarely go to church... I don't dig dogma.
