Have you considered the Norse/Germanic gods? There are plenty to choose from, and they don’t seem to demand or expect very much. Just drink lots of beer, load up the longship and attack England every so often, and go berserk once in a while. 
You do realize that there are several very touchy and very serious Norse pagan groups who would frown at that, yea?
I meant it as humor, nothing more.
What’s the warranty like? does it cover hardware and software related glitches, or just hardware, is there a tech-support line, and are there any known defects under factory recall?
How about a nice 10 commandments, barely used.
Sounds like a good idea, and since I already live in the sceptred isle I won’t even have to risk sea sickness.
As it constantly rains here, I think Thor might be a good bet.
Why do you feel you need a god? Is it because you are convinced there’s a supernatural explanation for life?
Yeah well, Odin has never been known for his keen sense of humour. Expect to hear an eight-legged horse any moment. Anyway I’ve been invited to some Norse pagan parties, and that pretty much sums up what they do. Compare axes, drink Mjøed with honey, muse lyrically about raping the fair maidens of England, party like it’s 987, go piously berserk and make love with wild abandon in newly ploughed fields.
You, good sir, have got yourself a sale!
In all honesty, I don’t need a supernatural explanation for life, I am a physicist and favour empirical evidence for events.
I have got an open mind on this subject and was hoping to provoke some interesting answers, which seems to have happened. I’d like to thank everyone that’s posted so far for keeping it lighthearted and not to heavy.
Just took the test, apparently I too am 100% Secular Humanist, so now there are at least two of us. Maybe I should abandon my inquiries into religion.
Don’t make fun of the Pagans, they’ll drink a lot of beer at you!
“Sell your God” reminds me of a conversation I and a friend had when seeing a Christian it might not be unreasonable to assume was nutty handing out brightly coloured leaflets containing simple messages in the manor of street vendors.
Me: Look! Salvation, half price.
Friend: Yes. Still free for the taking.
Anyway, how about some sort of deism? UU? Or research variants of buddhism, if some aspects appealed to you. If you’re not sure what form God takes, trusting that he’s there, but requiring no specific form of worship might be good.
Well, dang. The test rates me as 100% neo-pagan*. Which I am. But when was the last time one of these silly survey things showed up with 100% for anything?
I wish it had a report of what scores went for what. Most of it I understand, but what on earth makes me agree even 5% with Jehovah’s Witness? :eek:
*This is why I can’t sell you my god. That would be me. But you already have your own god in you, so set up whatever arbitrary yet fun worship you like for yourself. Just remember that you have only other gods to worship you, and that can be tricky. They’re usually busy worshiping themselves. This is the real reason we gather in circles - simultaneous self-worship. It’s sort of a spiritual circle jerk. With humus and spinach dip afterwards. Or just get a dog and save money on the potluck.
Beer - never. I prefer red wine. And mead. Lots and lots of sweet mead.
Aaw, I love UU’s! All the boredom of protestantism, twice the uncertainty! But at least they let us use their buildings.
(Tasteless riddle: Why is the singing so bad at UU churches? A: Because everyone’s reading a line ahead to see if they agree!)
My favorite comment about Unitarians (and the one most complimentary to them) is that they’d all rather go to a discussion of heaven than to heaven itself.
Now I know why we get along so well.
This silly poll has me as a 100% Orthodox Jew.
Go figure. ;j
