I don't live according to one specific philosophy, I just live according to the gospel of Voo.
And that is why organized religions are, IMHO, cults. There is no room for free thinking. You must believe what you're TOLD to believe or you're going to spend eternity somewhere terrible

I still remember going with my mother to her Baptist church and watching them all highlight their Bibles. Apparently SOME words of God are more important than others. :P Not to mention, some things, i.e. men not sleeping with men, should be taken literally, but Jesus turning water into wine? That was just done because water wasn't drinkable back then....drinking wine is wrong now. I'll never forget the look on her face when my ex-husband asked her why Jesus didn't just turn the bad water into good water.
