I consider Faith and religion the most important things in life - even more important than sex, vegetarianism, and Judas Priest 
It's strange that people so often freak out when one gets there 
I try to express my own opinion honestly and straightforwardly, and I listen to what other people say. If I find that they'r uncomfortable with it, then I change the subject to sex 
In fact I try to be honest and straightforward about everything.
Of course, sometimes, especially on the internet, people get defensive - there's a faint line between self-confidence and arrogance, not necessarily with the sender, but with the receiver - so one also has to know when to stop

Ah !! Look, you are not treading on thin ice or anything like that. You will find that religion is a very well-discussed subject here and there is no "right" answer, as far as I am concerned. We have had a few Threads on the subject but they either died or were removed by Murray.
I am not a big fan of "god" or any of that, either. Nothing to worry about, man. Speak your mind. As with anything in life, it is HOW you say things more than WHAT you are saying. I try to be respectful of other's opinions and not "mock" them but it is rather difficult when talking about this particular subject. I think you will be fine!

Man, I have to be careful here or I'll bring people down on me again. I do not want to expose anything.
I have trouble believing in religion. I think it was created to control people in one way or another. I prefer
to have an open mind. Some books try to explain religion or expose it's falsehoods and I sometimes
will read one. I was hoping the books he was referring to were like that.

The issue of honey is somewhat compicated. Strictly speaking, it ought not be part of a vegan diet, as it goes thru the bee organism, so it's analogous to cow milk. Otoh honey contains a lotta minerals and stuff that are considered healthy to particularly elderly people, so there are many veggies who stick to honey after having given up milk and eggs.
I think one should try out things for oneself and not be dogmatic.
Thanx for the list of books, Headbanger. I'l check'm up ..... 
And for the tip on threads

see the social issues thread, the religion thread got deleted I think after it got out of hand.
re the books, I find them entertaining. I dont often read to learn, its a diversion, so I am not looking for a deeper meaning. still can learn a few things or see things in a new way.
I am not against the concepts of either Veganism or Vegetarianism, I just like the taste of Meat too much
didnt know that honey was prohibited in veganism. you learn something every day.

Headbanger, I'm also interested in hearing about those books. Maybe you could tell us a bit about what they mean to you.
I understand from Mike (Deep Freeze) that there has been a lotta discussion about religion in this forum. I will use the next few days to seek up the stuff in the archives here.
And note that there is a difference between "vegetarianism" and "veganism". Vegetarianism may include milk, eggs and honey, one just avoids all meat (hereunder fish) and products derived from meat. Anyone in tropical and temperate zones can become vegetarian without problems. Young people can make the change from day to day, while middle-aged and older people usually need a transition period.
With veganism, one should be more careful and informed of the nutritional aspects.
If there's some interest, I can expand on these matters.

Headbanger, I read a lotta stuff, but not fantasy books. Consider that I'm 55 y/o. But I never actually read much fantasy related stuff.
When I was a teen, my bro and several of my friends raved about "The Lord Of The Rings". I never got around to reading it then. A lot later, when I was about 47, I read the first part. By that time I was way beyond being able to dig it. I saw the movie too, and that gripped me even less.
Not that I don't like movies with great visuals. I was totally enraptured by the movie Avatar - apart from the last ½ hour, that is. All that game warfare, it's not my thing.
I of course read a lotta religious and spiritual literature. One of the books that have formed me most is Gandhi's autobiography, "My Experiments With Truth". After several years of warming up, I started reading it properly when I was about 25. I was spellbound ! I had hardly ever heard about vegetarianism before, and here was a guy who had grown up veg in a completely veg environment. As a kid he didnt quite know why he was veg, but by the time he wrote the book, he sure was convinced.
His love and respect for all living beings, combined with his powerful intellect, have made a deep impression on me. Further, he writes again and again that everything he did was in order to meet God face to face. It never happened, but he was continuously striving - and isnt that the best we can do ?
For six years I was vice-chairman and international secretary of the Danish Vegetarian Society. During that time I wrote a series of articles (in Danish) under the headline "Gandhi and vegetarianism". I consider that one of the best things I'v done, and a tribute to one of my heroes.
Guess I'l soon have to write a biography of Priest

Bud, I think that in my understanding anything that comes from a living animal is considered forbiden to vegans. This includes cookies, bread etc containing milk, eggs etc. as well as wearing leather or wool.

I understand from Mike (Deep Freeze) that there has been a lotta discussion about religion in this forum. I will use the next few days to seek up the stuff in the archives here.
And note that there is a difference between "vegetarianism" and "veganism". Vegetarianism may include milk, eggs and honey, one just avoids all meat (hereunder fish) and products derived from meat. Anyone in tropical and temperate zones can become vegetarian without problems. Young people can make the change from day to day, while middle-aged and older people usually need a transition period.
With veganism, one should be more careful and informed of the nutritional aspects.
If there's some interest, I can expand on these matters.

Headbanger, I read a lotta stuff, but not fantasy books. Consider that I'm 55 y/o. But I never actually read much fantasy related stuff.
When I was a teen, my bro and several of my friends raved about "The Lord Of The Rings". I never got around to reading it then. A lot later, when I was about 47, I read the first part. By that time I was way beyond being able to dig it. I saw the movie too, and that gripped me even less.
Not that I don't like movies with great visuals. I was totally enraptured by the movie Avatar - apart from the last ½ hour, that is. All that game warfare, it's not my thing.
I of course read a lotta religious and spiritual literature. One of the books that have formed me most is Gandhi's autobiography, "My Experiments With Truth". After several years of warming up, I started reading it properly when I was about 25. I was spellbound ! I had hardly ever heard about vegetarianism before, and here was a guy who had grown up veg in a completely veg environment. As a kid he didnt quite know why he was veg, but by the time he wrote the book, he sure was convinced.
His love and respect for all living beings, combined with his powerful intellect, have made a deep impression on me. Further, he writes again and again that everything he did was in order to meet God face to face. It never happened, but he was continuously striving - and isnt that the best we can do ?
For six years I was vice-chairman and international secretary of the Danish Vegetarian Society. During that time I wrote a series of articles (in Danish) under the headline "Gandhi and vegetarianism". I consider that one of the best things I'v done, and a tribute to one of my heroes.
Guess I'l soon have to write a biography of Priest

Ah !! Look, you are not treading on thin ice or anything like that. You will find that religion is a very well-discussed subject here and there is no "right" answer, as far as I am concerned. We have had a few Threads on the subject but they either died or were removed by Murray.
I am not a big fan of "god" or any of that, either. Nothing to worry about, man. Speak your mind. As with anything in life, it is HOW you say things more than WHAT you are saying. I try to be respectful of other's opinions and not "mock" them but it is rather difficult when talking about this particular subject. I think you will be fine!

As I more and more experience the truth of "All wo/men are equal", and further, I'v always felt close to animals, and therefore decided to become 100% veg two years ago, I wanna put focus on the inordinate egoism of humans, and our manipulative and careless treatment of each other and our fellow beings on planet Earth.

License to live and let live.

I'm into singing and use a heavy rasp like Axl Rose & Billy Idol back in 1991, as well as raspy high pitch screams like Rob Halford on Painkiller song (If someone can send me an instrumental of Painkiller I will prove it) and I found my singing style, as well as intrigue in the devil as a Rock N' Roll icon suitable to call myself Screamin' Demon. The original idea for the name came from this monster truck.....

Other than getting hit listed about every day, OK. I get paid to fight, above what the normal person gets, so you know what that does to my insentive to do so! I'm evil! If I run out of points I just fight my way to the next level. Hummm, no wonder I have been killed 92 times. LMAO! I don't care! It's all in good fun, most of the time. LOL
