    i believe science is often very misleading, deceptive, or faulty.

    i also believe religions are the same on a slightly more regular basis.

    i believe in gods of sorts, and i believe there is more than meets the eye.

    i believe in all sorts of things. if i went into more detail i might risk sounding like a stereotypical burnt out hippy.

    Thats true, we cant we all just be puppies? :D

    On a more serious note, dogs appreciate friendship, something which many humans lack.

    I believe 'Underdog' by Sly is a great song, but not in free will.

    I believe life is a much smaller deal than a lot of people make it out/want it to be.

    I believe "Underdog" by Spoon is also a great song.

    Some people believe that morality - being good to each other - is an evolutionary thing. People who lived in groups that helped each other were more likely to survive. Over time, natural selection favors humans with some sense of "morality".

    It's a cool theory, but I'm not sure how it accounts for the existence of GW Bush.

    Well... you're older than 18, which means that I don't have to pay it... at least by gringo law... no matter how good of a child you are.

    I do expect you to support me financially after you graduate from med school though.

    I believe that the reason why mathematics can explain the patterns and core mechanics of Mother Nature in a way in which human beings can (somewhat, presently) comprehend, is that the Trinity mentioned in nearly ever religion in the World explains reality, only in many beautiful poetic ways.
    1. Positive
    0. Neutral
    -1. Negative
    1. Positivity, the Holy Spirit, the sacred OM sylabyl, the Light of Creation, the resulting manifestation of God's desireless willing to be of form and structure. Even the chaotic has a pattern in something's eyes. This is the first level of God, in our terms, the last, or result, level of Creation. The electro-magnetic force which attracts us to Sat, or Truth.
    2. Neutral, the Divine, Christ (Krsna) Consciousness, the final level of evolution, the karmaless perfection of existing within Mother Nature but not being tangled up by her. Jesus teachings, the lode quote "Dont need a reason to help others." Nirvana, the Buddha-child Nature within all of us. The balance between Yin and Yang.
    3. Negative, the dark matter surrounding each atom, the absence of Light, that which repels or repulses us from Truth, the subconscious, the parasitic Ego which latches onto our consciousness, feeding off of it and confusing us to believe that we need the Ego in order to exist.

    I believe in Love, I believe that if there were no God, no Love, there we be no thing at all, none of this would have happened, none of us would be going anywhere, coming from anywhere, etc. An absence of God is true torture, a liberation some think they would appreciate which causes even more confusion on their part. It is not a matter of believing in God or not, you are here, we are here, I am you and you are me, we are together and this is all happening, has been happening for billions of years, and will happen for (dont know) longer. The universe, in my mind, is not the only one, we are a bead of water dropping in and out of the ocean of the multiverses contained within God's dream network of Creation.
    You dream, yet you awaken to find this reality. When you dream, you manifest your own reality, you create with your mind (man made in God's image), you create your own situation and evniorment, which means somehow unknowable to you, you create your own universe, multiverse, macrocosmic reflection of what is already created for you to perceive and ponder and expound upon. Well, in my opinion, we are 'living' in God's 'dream' and we will wake up eventually. Perhaps our consciousness merges with a unified, single, ONE Awareness, when we awaken, that I dont know. All I know is that I love God, I love people, I love life, and I love drinking beer in the morning.
    Namaste
