>Protestant/Lutheran/Calvinist
While I'm happy we got Freedom of Religion from the movement, if you look at the actual belief system its regressive(dogmatic interpretations of 'holy' text). I find myself in the Catholic camp when I study philosophy. It aligns more with what the Deists think God would want if he was interested in Earth/Humans. (Do good vs believe in 1 holy human)
Still happy we got Freedom of Religion so I can be a skeptic. I can't help but roll my eyes that the perfect, all knowing, all powerful God doesn't care if we are good, he want's us to believe 1 human is the son of God. Deism is so much easier to rationalize.
- getwiththeprog 3y agoHaving studied philosophy, I find myself in the philosopher camp.
- hospitalJail 3y agoWhat is that? Skeptic/Agnostic? I liked what the Muslim Philosophers said: "Religion is for the masses, philosophers can logically deduce what God wants." I'm primarily a Skeptic/Agonistic, but Deism solves the cause and effect problem. I generally don't find skepticism useful for real-world uses, despite it being so easy to argue from.
