2nd Best Religion

[natty dread]

In other words, you are too close-minded to even consider that religions other than yours could have any value?

Way to fundamentalize.

When you know where the treasure is why dig any place else?

[Skittles!]

Agnosticism

I was going to say the same thing.

Because you DON'T know...you CAN'T know.

The question was hypothetical anyway so I don't see why you can't answer it.

Are you actually so insecure about your current religion that you can't even entertain the thought of "what if I followed another religion, and if I did, what religion would that be"?

How do you know what he don't know?

Presuming for the moment that Jay doesn't have any supernatural form of intelligence giving him insight into things that no one else on earth has (and this being Jay, well...), if this sort of thing were "knowable", then it would certainly be common knowledge.

That is, after all, the nature of religion. If you could know, then faith would be unnecessary. Unfortunately, the opposite is the way of it.

You'll just have to take his Word for it.

What if it's more complicated and he can't understand what he knows. Can he still know?

Bigger treasures in other places.

[jonesthecurl]

...and potatoes.

[2dimes]

I would go with one of the Luciferian ones. AMORC, Knights templar, Al Azar.

[naxus]

christianity but Catholicism if i have to be picky

[notyou2]

I would like to become a bacchanal. That'd be cool.

I believe you may have just explicitly described Jay's entire way of life.

[2dimes]

Yeah.

[pimpdave]

The one from Star Wars so I can have a light saber and cut all you motherfuckers' arms off in a bar and then be all like, "Whatever bitches, I'm a Jedi. And no need to thank me for the first aid, that wound was instantly cauterized."

[b.k. barunt]

I would be an agnostic dyslexic insominiac.

I'd lie awake all night wondering if there really was a dog.

[jonesthecurl]

Do you know what "D.N.A." stands for?

[jonesthecurl]

National Dyslexic Association.

[b.k. barunt]

Hrmm, DeriboNucleicAcid (not sure about the D). Why?

Oops, fast posted again.

Whoever said agnosticism, that's not really a religion... a case could be made for atheism being a "religion" of sorts, but not agnosticism.

I disagree. Their religious beliefs are they don't know nor do they think they can know one way or another. It is a very simple religious belief and would be my second choice after Atheism.

I think both of you are right. It's a matter of semantics. Agnosticism might not be a "religion" per se but it's definitely a religious viewpoint as it were.
