Do You Base You're Life on a Book?

Simple question.

I live my life off certain parts of a book.

Funny Answer - I base my life on a book, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. I have embraced his noodly appendage and my life is better because of it.

Real Answer - No I don’t.

I love my life on an unwritten text of human morality that has been observed and taught both visually and genetically.
Try to figure that one out.

Natural morals. No need for a book up in this ole noggin.

However it is written, genetically. It can be read, perhaps not by modern technology, but by our consciousnesses. Some people choose not to read this book, even though it is there, and instead live off simple, animal instincts.
Then again, that may be a book in itself as well, as it is also a general “code”.

But yeah, that aside, no, I don’t live my life on an actual book.

People claim Morals to be written down in various books like the Koran and Torah but those are just technically peoples opinions of what people’s morals should be. Everyone has different morals and how they act using those morals are even more varied. My own morals are very selfish but I usually don’t act on my own selfish morals and decide to be unselfish even if it goes against my moral judgment.

That probably made no sense but whatever.

Here’s the funny part:
Consider Christianity. How many different interpretations of the bible are there in the world?
Now, since we know books can have alternate interpretations, couldn’t we think of morality as a type of unwritten book that has multiple interpretations by everyone, and that book is stored within our DNA?

Well, they don’t pay me to think outside the box for nothing.

On the first read through that paragraph I thought you were insane but when I read it again I said: “By Jove Jenkins! This chap makes a bit of sense!" Then I telegraphed the Governor and told him to stop the 12.00 to Newcastle in which a shipment of Bibles was travelling to be given to the kids who live in the nunnery.

*is honoured*

I just want to thank God, because it is not up to me it is up to him. Oh and on that note I should probably thank Satan as well because without him God would probably die of boredom, everyone likes to feel useful... Make a da world go rounda.

i base my actions off of the bible because i believe wether u guys do or not that there where people who wrote those books because of what they heard from god and that they where sprit filled people who loved the lord and that it was inspired by the holy spirit and that some of it was wrote based on what you should do and the godly way 2 do things

A genius isnt someone with a massive amount of intellegence, a genius is someone who shoots at something no one else can see and hits it.

lo, wah?

I dropped my horrible verse already

I just try to do what I think will make me happy.

The way I see it, is religion should be more of a guideline, rather than something to devote your life to.

What if the guide lines require you to devote your life? (which isn’t limited to Christianity.)

Sound DBZ logic cannot be destroyed; the efforts of the so-called super elite will always be in vain. Have at thee Krom!

I don’t think that’s right.

My idea, is that the teachings and beliefs should be a guide to what kind of behavior you exhibit.

Thou shalt not kill
Thou shalt not steal
etc...

Those things (among other teachings, those were just some I thought of right away) should be how people should act, regardless of what religion they are.

These ideals should be how you live your life, but I think you should live your life the way you see fit, but still follow at least some set of guidelines such as that.

Take myself for example.

I consider myself agnostic, however, I still follow some christian values (the ones in the bible, not the stereotypical ones where they hate people and tell everyone they’re going to hell and cram bibles down people’s throats) such as treating others as you’d like to be treated, not killing, not stealing, things like that. If you take a look at my sig, the phrase I have in there is part of my personal philosophy, which I try to follow as much as possible.
