I find the subject fascinating, beliefs. Whether it be talking about religion, superstitious, political, or personal, I absolutely love talking about them. However, I can be a pain, because I very purposefully take the opposite stance, normally known as Devil's Advocate. Which, in most cases, such as religion and superstitious, is pure logic, something I'm far more comfortable with. It is amazing how people have to fall back to 'faith' to defend their stances. However, when it comes to personal, the tables are turned. As those who vaguely know me already know, my personal beliefs are skewed, for reasons I'm currently hunting down with the help of a professional. But! Despite how wrong that I know my personal beliefs are (intellectually, understand), I also love defending them. Pointing out a hole in my logic does not, and in my opinion, should not, immediately cause you to change beliefs, merely to seek to cover that hole. If one cannot do so in a logical manner (such as introducing ideas or concepts that don't have logical holes in them), then and only then should one change their beliefs.
So! I invite people to share their beliefs, poke holes in other people's beliefs, and go back to defend your own! Bear in mind, I intend this to be a light-hearted discussion.
I'll start, I suppose.
I am an atheist, meaning I have no religious beliefs. There is no god. As far as the afterlife is concerned, it does not exist. As far as souls go, they do not exist. Speaking of life's purpose, there is none. Talking about the beginning of the universe, I have no idea how it started, although evidence points towards a Big Bang event. As for the end of the universe, either entropy will win out and there will be nothing, or gravity will pull everything back together and there will be a Big Crunch.
I have no superstitions. There exists in my clothes nothing 'lucky'. I have nothing to chant when something happens to ensure something else happens. I don't believe in the supernatural, such as ghosts or other specters. I admit there is a possibility of alien life on other planets, but none that have contacted us in any way shape or form. Horoscopes mean nothing, and I have no lucky number (over the years, upon being asked what my lucky number was, I have invariably answered with my age).
Politically, I am apathetic. I honestly don't care who wins where until it affects me (see below). However, when I do take an interest in a given subject, I tend to lean left more than right, using American terms.
Going on to personal beliefs... ok. I am more important than everyone else on the planet. I am capable of being demonstrably better at anything I choose, given time to practice. Things, generally speaking, don't matter until they directly affect me, and thus there is no reason to act on something until it has. I am a misanthrope, meaning that I hate humanity, save friends and family. This has lead me to the furry culture, because it is easier for me to relate and talk to you people when I don't (emotionally) connect that you're human. I get along great with, empathize with, and identify best with cats, which is why I've chosen the fursona of a yellow tabby.
There we go! Share some or all of those beliefs, or just poke holes in mine. Either one!
