susanoo_mikoto Posted December 18, 2008 Report Posted December 18, 2008 Hello, A little about myself. I'm agnostic, but for a while investigated the LDS church. I never believed in god, but in the past few years became interested in the LDS. I say I'm agnostic because I have buddhist and slight pagan leanings. I'm mostly into nichiren buddhism, but thats about it. Anyway, I listened to the whole BOM (audiobook from mormon.org) and even went to an LDS service out of curiosity. Anyway, I'm now at the point that after this year I will only be agnostic, and well, buddhist. Its nothing personal, but since I am getting older, I have found things out for myself, and well, here I am. I will ask more later, but for now I wanted to make an introduction to the board. Thank you. Quote

Hemidakota Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 Hello, Its nothing personal, but since I am getting older, I have found things out for myself, and well, here I am.This is how most of us do join or receive a personal testimony by investigating and then ask the question to see if there is a Living GOD that can converse with HIS children. Welcome to the forum. Quote

SuPRn0A Posted December 19, 2008 Report Posted December 19, 2008 hey susano what has brought you to get in touch with LDS ?also have you hear about Maitreya from the west and do you have a reference book like the Tibetan's book of the dead in Buddhism ? Quote
susanoo_mikoto Posted December 19, 2008 Author Report Posted December 19, 2008 It's a long story. As far as buddhism goes, I have mostly sutra's. Actually, Miroku-sama (Maitreya) is not due for a very very long time. Read the lotus sutra, it explains all. Quote

SuPRn0A Posted December 20, 2008 Report Posted December 20, 2008 Because the people are making choices and don't always select the good ones. But the world of today could change if those currently in control could be replaced by more humanitarian people. The world would become alot better if Geniocracy would replace the raw Democracy. And capitalism is a part of the problem too, a big damn part. Theres supposedly 12 millions of $USD$ per Human being in the world economy. So i guess theres a certain unbalanced and unfairness somewhere that must be solved. And ultra-rich corporatists are not the ones who will solve the global problem of unbalance. Quote
HiJolly Posted December 20, 2008 Report Posted December 20, 2008 Welcome to the board, Susanooo... I met God on the path, and I killed Him. Now we're getting to know each other, and I'm in love. (I kinda like the Zen flavor of Buddhism). HiJolly Quote

I'm about to read the Tao of Pooh again. Quote
