I believe in 'God' but not as a seperate entity outside of myself, or my chair, or what I'm about to eat for my dinner...or you, for that matter. I therefore do not assign attributes to said entity, such as 'good', 'bad', 'ugly'.

As for my 'philosophy' being inconsistant...perhaps. I have never declared that I know all there is to know (though on some level, I know I do, as do you). I am very much enjoying finding out/remembering this stuff as I come across it, however.

I would not define myself as a nihilist, satanist or communist, though I can understand your apparent requirement for me to do so. I might say I was simply a human being.

'I' am comfortable with that particular pigeon-hole and I've reached a point in my life, finally, where it simply doesn't matter if others agree or disagree with that.

No requirements from me. I just found it weird that you believe in God's existence yet reject the objectivity of moral values. However I have just done some reading, and it appears your philosophy matches quite neatly with pantheism. Maybe you should have a little read about it. You may get on quite well with it.

I am familiar and I found it very interesting. Labels bore the tits off me, however, which may be why I'm hesitant to assign myself yet another one. There are plenty of folks happy to do that for me.

Well, you said you like learning (or rediscovering) things. Don't you find it strange or interesting that people came up with the same philosophy as you hundreds of years before? Possibly not, but you don't have to believe in something to read about it.

I believe I said I found it interesting above. I don't know that I'd define it as a 'philosophy' for me, at least, either. I'm simply starting to notice things around me and feel my way, if you like. I still change my thinking about things on a daily basis, and hopefully always will.
