I believe in Angels demons and ET's. What about you?

Sorry, have lost you there. Can you explain what you mean please? What was straight forward and confined in what I said?

If you are interested in the Sophia story you should check out whistleblower Laura Eisenhower, grand daughter of President Eisenhower.

Awesome, thanks, will do.

we determine faith in denominations and confined it to a point of view. Catholic, lutheran, baptis, hindu, Buddist. Why not take all the peices that are true and put something together yourself without anyone else knowing(personal faith)).
Go outside, sit by nature get some frickn life into you and enjoy all experiance of life. Go to college, soak some knowledge.

If God did not want these good religions than why are they still here. Hindu is the oldest religion ever and it still ticks.
Do not forget that the last thing God did (in the perspective of the new testament) was breaking the synagouge apart. Thus proclaiming that God is everywhere and not confined in a building. I am everywhere, under a rock etc etc. Jesus said that.
Hate to sound preachy

My biggest complaint about religion was when I heared about the catholic poverty oath. I did not know this. My aunt is a preistess(catholics do not think you are a preist cause you do not have a penis)/nun and she cannot be a true nun unless she sales all her stuff to the catholic church (money, house, car, goods. Called an oath of poverty.

After you learned the fact in the existence of alians from outer space, why is it that you question your faith? If God is the creator of the universe, why wouldn't he also create extraterrestrials as well? Or do you believe that if extraterrestrials are real then God doesn't exist and that evalution created all things because ET's exist? I think that if there is no God then there is no awareness, and if there is no awareness, then how do beings with awareness exist from non-awareness if there is no God? Also, if life exist only on planet Earth then God is the God of Earth and not God of the universe because there are no subjects to rule over out there. But if God is the ruler of the universe then there must be physical subjects to rule over out there in the universe.

Ah ok! See more of what you mean now and am totally with you on that. Maybe my mistake was the way I perceived you might be thinking with you being a priest, and if so, apologies. But yeah, agreed with doing your own thing and mixing things up if it works, it's what I've mostly done as well and still do to an extent.
