    Please don't ask how to fit all of those in one label. Humans generally don't like the answer :cthulhu:
    life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

    Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

    "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

    John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper

    "You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."

    Aslan, Prince Caspian by CS Lewis

      Atheist + panentheist. There are no literal gods, but there is godhood in all and everything.

          Anyone with my eye problems should never dive into this... thus Misotheist/antitheist came out as 'misguided antichrist' to me.

          But I always identify as a solitary pagan witch. Solitary cos I work alone, pagan (because it allows me so much scope - and my path is always taking me to new places) and witch cos that's what I am and do.

            Panthiestic Animistic Hard Polytheist Kemetic, Flamekeeper, with some side complications. That's my religious identification, thus far. lol I should probably change that on my label. <.<

            It kind of gives a "Wtf", but it all kind of... flows together?

              If one reads it slowly and carefully then it makes sense. I'm a hard polytheist Kemetic. I don't think it's about to change soon.

                          If someone asks me, I usually say "pantheist"...but really...my view on deity is more like... intellectually agnostic, emotionally pantheist, and functionally soft polytheist.

                            I am apathetic about the existence or non-existence of deity.

                            I'm apparently not an orthodox Apatheist because while I don't care about anyone else's religion, I do care about how religious folk treat other people in regards to their relgion. But the focus isn't so much on what they believe as it is on how they express their beliefs. I'm an Ethical Apatheist.

                              Question, how are you distinguishing atheist from non-theist?
                              life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.
