Actully there must be some absolute truths. I think that is the absolute truth. There are a few absolute truths but most of life is a grey area. How can you say there can be no absoulute truths if for that to be true then that statement "There are no absolute truths" IS an absolute truth. Anyway that is all aside the point. My core beliefs... I believe that everyone man has the right to live. That said I do not believe that this life is all we have to live. I believe there are things going on that are simply beyond even our greatest minds. I do believe in God. Not per se the christian god though. But I do believe that there is a loving inteligent being that we can know on a personal level. We can not know him in this life. But we should live this life trying to know him in our next life. The reason I believe this is simple. I am going to use the much quoted Ocums(sp?) razor. Basically its like this. There IS a reason humans exist. I do not think it was by chance. I can not believe that. There for I think the simplest answer (and there for it MUST be the correct, RIGHT?) is that we were created by a supreme being. I think it is foolish for us to think we know said supreme being's will. I am not saying he dosn't want us to go to church on sunday. I am just saying, I do not believe that is the only way. If God is personable then he must understand that everyone is differn't therefore not everyone reaches him the same way. For those who DO and can reach him just by going through church once a week... great. For many of us its not so clear cut. We just have to wake up every day and try our best to be the best we can be. I personally think thats all he wants of us. I think everyone is "programmed" to do something. And in their hearts they know what that is. I think as long as we listen to our hearts, our gut if you will(But NOT our sexual organs. Many people like to follow said organs and claim that it was their heart that told them to do so). Then we will be okay. We will be happy. And eventully we will move on to next life. Were we will always be happy. Were we will have a chance to meet God. Only then will we know why. I think it is frivolous for us to try to understand NOW. I mean we should try but we must accept that we wont truly know why we are obsessed with rock climbing (or whatever) untill God tells us why. I do not believe in hell per se. I do not believe everyone goes to "heaven" though. The people who do go are the ones that pay attention to what is ingrained in them. The truths. The absolutes if you will. Basically the 10 comandments. Which that IS religous doctrine but still. Its my best example of whats truely right. Some words have been changed a bit to better fit what I think they were really going for.Its pretty simple. Don't murder anyone,and I will ask before anyone commints on this please look up the word murder. Don't take whats not yours, Wether it be money or a car or your neighbors wife. Respect other people,your parents,your boss,your friends,your coworkers everyone. You don't have to LIKE them. Just respect them. And one more that I am just going to add, respect the earth and all living creatures on the earth. Again that is not saying we should never kill a cow or cut down a tree but don't rape the land and cause animals to go extinct OR cause them to live a painfilled life just because it makes them more tender. I think that about covers it all.
