"...or to convert athiests into believers"

[hillbillyhuntor]

well if i didnt tell you ive been athiest for a while. i dont remember how long but its probably since the time i was trying to figure about the meaning of life. i proved to myself that god does not exist. now i dont want the comments on this entry to be like "hey shut up! jesus is my home boy" i just wanted everyone to know that i WAS athiest. now i have a religion again. Buddhism. now let me explain before you judge incorrectly. being athiest was different. there was nothing i could fall back onto but knowing that there is no god just made me more and more athiest. it was driving me nuts until one day in Social Studies class Mr. Sheethand played The Little Buddah for our class. i thought it was funny and had no knowledge value at all until Lama Norbu disscussed impermanence. When, in 100 years, everyone will be dead that you know including yourself. i was spaced for the rest of that day. i mean fullblown out of it. i couldnt think of anything else. then i thought more deeply about buddhism. the one thing that made me so interested was recarnation. this means i come back to the earth again and again and i will be able to see the earth and its wonderfulness over and over again. that was what finally pulled me out of my athiest slump and back into religion. i am buddhist now.

now i gotta figure out how to tell my parents.....if you have anysuggestions pleeeeeeeeease comment and if you dont comment anyway!

i am one happy buddha
