My religious views expand daily! Except they are not very religious as I do not believe in the idea of a "god(ess)" (Big beard/pair of breasts in the sky type thing). The Universe now, that is somthing I DO believe in, especially after the existential dread which comes from staring up at the stars and opening your mind to the vastness of the universe. WOOHOO that is a trip and a half, leaves you feeling like a giant, but unbelievably insignificant at the same time! I understand why people who havn't had that kind of experience go in for organised religion though. I went to a service with a friend reciently and the sheer ENERGY of 40 odd people believing is pretty energising. Made me want to cry!
