I forgot to add the question, it's late. So what beliefs do you hold or have held that might have raised an eyebrow or two?

A belief that raises eyebrows? That ones easy for me lol. For me that would be that there's aliens here on earth and they are creating hybrids. For what reason I have no Idea..... >.<

Well I'm not sure about the hybrids but I do believe aliens walk among us and I also believe we came here from another planet and so it goes.
I also believe that there are many worlds out there, we are not alone and its conceited to think we are.
I'm not real sure what your talking about with the moon but I do think people change whens theres a full moon.
I know my mom always told my sister to watch me on a full moon because I changed.
They didn't know they were the ones changing.

the moon is a given for me...i love astrology and there are 3 main signs: the sun sign the moon sign and the ascendant. Some astrologers say that the moon sign is the most important and the most noticeable. It controls all of our deep emotions and feelings. I am a Cancer moon a Cancer ascendant and a Virgo sun. I totally believe that the moon influences us all when it comes to our feelings and moods. HUG :)

ps
this group rocks

I believe that the speed of light is not a constant but is actually variable, dependent on the size of the physical universe. Thus, as the universe expands, the speed of light should increase.

I also believe that Pizza is God's Food and is the culmination of mankind's spiritual advancement. Pizza is therefore truly worthy of worship. Holey Pepperoni.

I love the moon. ...and there is definitely a difference in the air and on the streets when the moon is full.

I don't think I have any brow raising beliefs.....when I was little I was positive that Santa existed because the cookies we put out for him were always gone in the morning. lolol

I suppose the moon could effect abilitiies and development, the stars certainly have.
I believe universes exist inside molecules and we in turn are a universe in a much larger molecule,ad infinitum in either direction, we are neither the largest nor the smallest, the first or the last.

I think we all have a right to believe what rings true to our own heart and I&#039;m glad you are no longer listening to what others may think about your beliefs,what is true for one may not be for another and no one person has all the answers.
I also think this is very interesting although I have not studied on this subject myself I think its good to be open minded.
Hugs!

I believe in that too. Its called astorogy!!! Im a picses, they are supposed to be very emotional, believe me thay weren&#039;t kidding, just ask my husband!!!! Im emotional three weeks out of four! Doesn&#039;t matter if Im happy or sad, I&#039;ll cry at the drop of a hat!!

My goodness thats a good one for me, my beliefs certainly has risen my friends eyebrows at times. I think they find me a bit airy fairy sometimes. I believe and have always believed that everything that has grown or is alive has an energy or spirit and some sensitive people can see this energy. I also believe that energy&#039;s can be taped into if you know how. Healers for example can do this. I have kind of experienced this. A friend of a friend helped the pain i was having in my arm by simply holding her hand over and above the area. I felt a warmth around the area and my arm and shoulder relaxed. I also remember trying to explain to a friend about auras and crystals, energy&#039;s and the chakras. She looked at me as if i was confessing that i believed there where fairy&#039;s at the bottom of the garden. But im quite happen to explain my beliefs to people and why i believe in them.

chatters, I&#039;m not sure about the fairys its not something i&#039;ve seen or felt, but i believe in everything else you said, at least i now know that i am not the only one whos airy fairy.lol

i&#039;m a pagan, so my thoughts on things tend to raise eye-brows constantly! as for the moon affecting things, i&#039;ve always believed that, have my own spiritual beliefs on it - but if you look at it scientifically as well, how can it not affect us? the moon controls the tides etc and we&#039;re made primarilly of water - so even if the effects are small, there has to be some.

wow, thats interesting-yeah, i could beleive that! and all the replys are very interesting, too! Im gonna read them all.

I love the moon and I&#039;m a pisces too! I also want to say to the person before me that I think I believe in energy healing and chakras and am hoping to go to a Reiki master soon to help ease my fibro pain. I went to a polarity therapist a few times years ago with calming results and also a physical therapist who did cranial sacral therapy on me with meditating relaxing results.

But what I believed for 35 years and am struggling with is: (the backgound) a belief that knowledge from one higher personal power had been revealed to Zoroaster, Buddha, Krishna, Abraham, Moses, and Christ as one continueing revelation, pertaining to the social and spritual needs at that time and place. It&#039;s called progressive revelation.

And I learned by reading sacred Baha&#039;i scriptures that this same knowledge was also revealed to Mohammad, The Bab (the Gate), and Baha&#039;u&#039;llah (the Glory of God) as mankind progressed and could understand more, the knowledge revealed was again about the social and spiritual needs at that time and place. The belief is there&#039;s one God, One Mankind, and One Religion, One Revelation. They are all part of the one, all teaching the same spiritual teachings like the Golden Rule for example. This is from Writings from the Baha&#039;i Faith.

Baha&#039;u&#039;llah and The Bab&#039;s teachings are peaceful and unifying and I raised my children that way; for example, to abolish predjudices, believe in the equality of men and women, and that science and religion agree. These Manifestations of God (the same Spirit in each man) are considered to be equal.

Well here in the Bible belt that has raised so many eyebrows that I quit telling anyone unless they asked. I still believe the unifying teachings but I&#039;ve not been happy with the Bahai&#039; Administration pushing teaching the Faith in earnest, because one teaching that I loved was NO proseletysing in this religion.

So where I am is considering withdrawal from something I believed for 35 years. The internet and fact that those last 3 Manifestations of God are from Iraq and Iran, are a factor. I&#039;m older and wiser now and I&#039;ve been thinking that I don&#039;t need to belong to any organized religion. It&#039;s goal of unifying mankind is wonderful but the one world theocratic government goal sorta went over my head when I embraced this Faith at age 19.

Thank you for asking this question and I appreciate any views at all since we are in an open minded group.
Thanks for reading. I tried to be as brief as I could but it&#039;s a complex subject. Hope everyone&#039;s day or night is great.
