    Thank you. I'm making food at the moment so I couldn't read the article.

    I don't think this is a good idea, but as long as I can still buy pasteurized milk and if the raw milk has the proper health warnings on the carton then I guess it's ok. I do worry for those who will have no choice but to drink raw milk, though. That's not cool.

    Isn't it the Xbox direct followed by the Starfield direct? Either way I'm definitely going to watch!

    I live in western PA and it's crazy the haze we get even here. We can even smell the smoke from time to time.

    Pocket Edition is definitely more streamlined and linear, but overall it's honestly pretty similar to the main game. Magic works a bit differently, but I like how it works more than the full version honestly.

    I recommend it. It's a 20 hour romp and a genuinely fun time.

    It varies person to person, but for me I celebrate all the Christian holidays. The biggest difference with most Christians is that I believe in other Gods too, and believe they're all aspects of Krishna.

    Not all Christopagans worship Krishna too. Some mix it with heathenry or the Hellenistic gods or Celtic gods, etc. It's pretty eclectic and all you're really guaranteed to find in common among Christopagans is a love for Jesus.

    I believe in reincarnation but I also believe in Heaven. I believe when we die we go to Heaven but if we want to we can reincarnate. I'm not sure how others believe though.

    In lieu of a ~spirituality group I figured a dedicated thread could be nice. Posting in this group was suggested by a fellow tildo.

    So friends, what does your spirituality mean to you? How would you define yourself? What impact has it had on your life?

    For me, I'm a Christopagan and my faith means a lot to me. The Christian Trinity, Santa Muerte, and Krishna are my rock. The Buddha is a good source of inspiration too, but I don't particularly follow him. I also find a lot of meaning in the Tao de Ching, but I wouldn't necessarily consider myself a Taoist, although I agree with a lot of what it says .

    2004 - 2010. It had early social media before it sucked, the internet still belonged to the people, niche communities were common, crazy and weird videos spread like wildfire (Salad Fingers anyone?) And YTMND was all the rage.

    Edit: It also had the early days of Yahoo Answers which was just the best site to hang out at at the time.

    I'd like a ~religion or ~spirituality page. I'd also really like an ~occult page but I realize that's probably too niche. Image posts could be nice but I understand why we don't have them here.

    Well I started off as an atheist of all things haha, but overtime I realized that I couldn't deny there was more out there. Had some success with praying to Jesus but I didn't subscribe to the only Christianity is correct doctrine. I view religions more like languages. They all, to me, speak of largely the same thing in their own way and have a lot of good to take from each. I work with several spirits other than Jesus and am quite happy with how it's going :)
