1.) What do you consider your religion to be?
Judaism
2.) What beliefs do you hold that are consistent within that religious group? (If you don't follow any particular religion, put "N/A")
3.) What beliefs do you hold that are NOT consistent within that religious group? (If you don't follow any particular religion, put "N/A")
Homosexuality, of course.
4.) Do you disagree with any of the beliefs or practices that your religion is based off of? (If you don't follow any particular religion, put "N/A")
Obviously, homosexuality. Also, not using electricity during holidays. Its considered making fire, which is associated with work. Back then, people did not seem to know that fire and electricity are separate things, so it has been integrated into the religion. Along with that, The laws of נגיעה (Pronounced "Negiah"). To sum up, after bar/bat-mitzvah, at the age of 12 or 13, you are not allowed to touch a member of the opposite gender. Let me repeat. Not allowed to TOUCH, or have any physical intereaction with whatsoever. There are sexual exceptions, but I'm not going into that here (and only the mega-orthodox follow that particular law anyway.)
5.) Do you not follow any particular religion? If so, what are your beliefs?
N/A I suppose. Not sure I understand..
6.) Would you consider yourself monotheistic? (Believe in one God) Why?
Following Judaism, yes, I believe in one. Why? I'm not entirely sure.
7.) Would you consider yourself Polytheistic? (Belief in more than one God) Why?
Nope. Again, said above.
8.) Would you consider your beliefs more akin to monolatry? (Belief in a God that is one and many. In other words, many Gods that come from the same one force. Examples: Hinduism, Kemetic Orthodoxy) Why?
Again, no. Monotheistic here.
9.) Which God/Gods do you worship?
Yaweh, is the English pronunciation
10.) Do you consider yourself Pagan, or not Pagan?
Not Pagan.
11.) Do you find you do NOT fit into any particular religious group? If so, why?
Any religion that is not Judaism, I suppose.
12.) What is your political standpoint? Is it influenced by your religious beliefs in any way?
It only affects my opinion on Israel as a whole, but I'm not in the mood to get into that here.
13.) Do you have a particular belief about how creation began?
This is an interesting one for me. I hate to think that I'm not allowed to believe in science and religion at the same time. What if science and creationism happened together? Let me explain:
1:1 - In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
1:2 - And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
1:3 - And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
1:4 - And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
^^This could be the big bang?^^
Day 1: The heavens, the earth, light and darkness. - (Already explained)
Day 2: Heaven - The atmosphere came into place, and the sky as we know it was now visible.
Day 3: Dry land, the seas, and vegetation. - The earth started to take form
Day 4: The sun, the moon and the stars. Took form as we know it.
Day 5: Living creatures in the water, birds in the air. The first animals started moving around, and evolution as we know it started.
Day 6: Land animals and people. More evolutionary things
Day 7: God "rested". The world as we know it today started evolving and moving on its own.
14.) Did you convert, or were you born into this religion? If you converted, what were you originally?
Born Jewish, still am.
