Yes my purple moon pic works now

I'm a Pagan myself, so I'm going to stay out of this one. Suffice it to say, it's only an issue if you believe in that cosmology in the first place.

same here depends on which religion you belive in. Yeah and if you are a werewolf don't go blurtin it out. Or Mulder and Scully will come looking for you. WOOO! Mulder and Scully! or Mr.Smith... .... Hello Mr. Wolveblade...

Well, IMO, it doesn't just depend on what religion you are. Every religion isn't right. One of them is (or possibly several similar ones), and the rest are wrong. Also, it's possible that none of them are right and they're all wrong. So, I think werewolves would be subject to the God of whatever the correct religion is. If there is no correct religion, and the world somehow created itself, then there's no problem at all.

I'm pretty confident that Buddha, God, Allah (kind similar to God, but whatever), Zeus, and Ra aren't all sharing an apartment in the afterlife, dividing up their various constituents and subjecting them all to their own will. There is one deity (or one set of deities, like the Egyptians) that is correct, IMO, and we are all subject to the will of this individual or group.

Hindus believe that All are merely facets of One.
Sort of like a big Puppet Show of the Divine.

A word of caution: the "one is right and everyone else is wrong" is a Fundamentalist notion, even if you don't think it's the Fundamentalists themselves who have it right. Logically, it seems like it makes sense, but practically, here's what I consider more likely.

If there is any one viewpoint that is right and all the others wrong, my bet would be the atheistic skeptics. Their model is generally pretty stable, though it starts getting contrived once you try to explain paranormal phenomena.

More likely, there's some truth out there that no one has entirely correct or entirely wrong. If there is a great divinity, it's highly improbable that there is any one religious group that has with perfect precision described it's entire cosmology and method of working.

The most likely explanation, and what I consider to be real, is that they're all at least partially wrong. Some are more wrong than others. The odds of someone figuring it out perfectly, given what it would entail, is about like my randomly guessing the winning lottery numbers of every state or national lottery on Earth from now until some five billion years from now, when the planet falls into the sun. Still, "it's five numbers, each between one and forty" is a lot better a guess than "it's a color, two sounds, and a type of fish."

There goes my theory that we're all players in an intergalactic "Muppetshow."

In old crappy horror movies they say that if you kill human in werewolf form, you go in hell. I do believe in God but eternal suffering in hell is complete BS!
How do you think our God could be love himself if he lets that happen

Besides in werewolf form you can't control yourself and people die against your will so how ya can be "bad" enough to go in hell. I rather would be werewolf who can control himself so I can decide myself that what I eat, where I go and so on.
That I would like in the movie, human turns in werewolf but still have his own personality

*sigh* Well, I guess I should commemorate you for something Wolveblade. Most p-shifters would have started flaming by now.

Still, like the llama said, this is a forum for werewolf fans and theory, not for people pretending to be werewolves. In fact, when you think about it, p-shifting qualifies as a type of spam, therefore for the prevention of both spam and flame, this topic is closed.
