  Hello, larc!

  While you are at it you might want to check out agnosticism.

  Interesting, isn't it, how we evolve?

  Peter Ouspensky (In Search of the Miraculous, p. 57):

  In order to understand the law of man's evolution it is necessary to grasp that, beyond a certain point, this evolution is not at all necessary, that is to say, it is not necessary for nature at a given point in its own development.

  p. 58

  Evolution is the result of conscious struggle. Nature does not need this evolution; it does not want it and struggles against it. Evolution can be necessary only to man himself when he realizes his position, realizes the possibility of changing his position, realizes that he has powers he does not use...

  Thanks anyway though, but as I said before i was just a bored soul with an internet connection and an interest in religion and philosophy.

  Hmm, what will you do when you get bored with those? At first I was going to include the statement about Buddhism and Wicca in the quote, but I think this is more direct..

  After buddhism and Wiccanism? Probably porn, either that or log off, go outside, drink my favourite depressants, go whereever the night may lead me. I have no interest in becoming a buddhist or a pagan, just interested in them. To quote many, many householders: "IM NOT INTERESTED!!! *SLAMS DOOR*

  maybe there is a reason why you happened up on this site.. who knows?

  Today I'm merely a bored soul with an internet connection and an interest in religion and philosophy

  you said you have an interest in religion........well maybe you will find of interest some things here.. many of us found relief when we learned more about the Watchtower Society. I know you said you are no longer a JW, but it still might be of interest to you to still understand them more..

  Welcome to the board at any rate and may life go well for you
