Often I lie wide awake, thinking of things I could make.
But I don’t seem to have the parts to build them.
I am so scared of what will kill me in the end, for I am not prepared.
I hope I will get the chance to be someone, to be human.
I have no idea what to believe. I figure, I'll figure out when I do. No point in wasting life trying to figure out what happens after, when eventually you'll find out anyway.
I just try to be the best person I can be, so that I can feel good with myself.
Well, I am Christian but have strong beliefs about this that may oppose the beliefs of many Christians. I believe in God, Jesus, etc. but I don't think the Bible should be taken at face value or really put much stock in it at all. I also don't believe that God should be the center of one's life. I think if you're a good person you'll go to heaven if you believe in God or not
There are certain ideas which I strongly disagree with, I don't think this really matters. Honestly, I think religion and spirituality should fulfill for you whatever you want them to. I do get comfort from having my faith and I try to live as well as I can and to be a good person.
Someone explain what the deference between Agnostic is and Undecided?
In the end, aren't they kinda the same?
First, I'm Christian, Pentecostal to be exact.
Agnostic is kind of like saying you have a religion. Something along the lines of not knowing whether God exists or not because you think it can't be proven or disproved, however even though you can't be sure you still live either saying He exists or He doesn't exist.
Undecided in my opinion is deciding if you agree more with, say, Mormon, Christian, Catholic, or Wiccan beliefs and so on.

Ouu that makes sense. I was reading it another way.
Thanks

I'm Agnostic.
Undecided would be like, acknowledging that there is a higher power but not knowing what it is/what you believe it is.
Agnostic, on the other hand, is believing that there is no way to know if there is or is not something out there.
Agnostic for some people can even mean not caring whether there is a higher power of some sort, or being indifferent.
So I will find my fears and face them
I will cower like a dog
I will kick and scream
I will kneel and plead
I'll fight like hell to hide that I'm givin' up
I said I'm undecided because while I'm technically Baptist I'm not entirely sure I believe in God all the time.
The next time you feel down, just remember that Bruce Banner tried to kill himself
and Tony Stark has anxiety attacks, and they've both saved the world. You will be okay.
Atheist with conditions: prove to me that it exists and i will believe it, prove to me that its worthwhile and i will follow it. I'm from the school of science will prove it either way.
I'm agnostic, and also quite intrigued by buddhism. I wouldn't actually call myself a buddhist, but there are many ideals from buddhism I try to apply to my life.
I am agnostic. While I do believe in a "Higher spirit" it is not of any description that any religion has of this higher being. But I 100% believe in spirits (Or ghosts if you want to call them that). Another reason is because there is (No offense) no proof that there is or that there is not a "God"
