alright,
The religious beliefs of Travis Ray Kunz (a.k.a. Spartan156, Lost Philosopher)
God
God created the heavens, the earth, and man. God sent us prophets to teach his word and rules to us. God can appear in any form he wishes, he has no true form visible by man. God has no race, gender, religion he is for more than any other man. All he truly ask is that his creation believe in him, be faithful, and obedient. God is very talkative, funny, loving, merciful, comforting, and I could go on thinking about adjectives describing god, but that would take an entire page or two. He rules over heaven and is the final decision for either redemption or damnation. He does whatever it takes to make us feel good without forcing it.
Heaven
Heaven is a spiritual world that is almost identical to earth, except that the landmass is in a permanent Pangea. Just as man was created in God?s image, earth was created in heaven?s image. It is a lush world plentiful in resources and land. There is one huge city about the size of Europe or the United States (or bigger) with skyscrapers higher than ones humans will have in the future. Pain is an impossibility, but you still have adrenaline, so you can jump off a building on your way to your destination and fell nothing but the rush and excitement of the fall. There is also many other places for someone to live anywhere they want. There is free will in heaven, there is also a form of government, and military. There are some fighting arenas for personal enjoyment. I know, violence in heaven doesn?t make sense. But think, how harmful is violence when no one can be hurt?Humans, Demons, and Angels
Angels were god?s second creation after heaven. They are identical to humans in image except for their wings. They do not have the ability to create, but they do have free will. Before god created man, he told his angel to bow to no one but him, after mans creation he told his angel to bow don to man. Lucifer refused out of loyalty and pride. Those who followed him were seen more as rebel angels then became the demons we know today. They loyal angels were given a lifetime on earth as reward. Though during the war in heaven, there were a select few of angels that fought for neither God nor Lucifer. They were cast out of heaven for refusing to fight. These fallen angels roam the earth assisting humans.
The Apocalypse
In the end times there will be all the famous figures as told by the scriptures. (Antichrist, 4 horsemen etc.) But all these evil figures have opposites. Say the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse, (War, Pestilence, Famine, Death) there are the 5 horsemen of the New Millennium. (Peace/Love, Health, Prosperity, Life) These 9 horsemen will fight each other spreading their power across the world. At the end when Lucifer is defeated the 5 horsemen will return the world to normal. The earth will last a millennium after in a never ending period of peace and prosperity

WOW that was really insightful!
I especially like the part about the angels. Where do you derive the idea that some didn't fight in the celestial war and are now on earth helping people? It sounds really interesting to me.
I always wish i knew more about angels. They are these obscure beings that aren't talked about in great detail in the quran.
So do you label your faith anything in particular? or you don't buy into labels?
Anyways thanks so much for sharing that with us. I personally enjoyed it and thought it was quite candid!

Thank you, I got the idea from free will in heaven. (The reason the whole war started was because people chose to side with Lucifer) Thinking that if there were those who picked sides, there had to have been some who didn't. I fell it shows what redemption true is. Fallen angels have a very high risk of becoming demons (I feel that the only difference between the angels is the style of their wings, Angel=white feather Fallen=black feather Demon=Bat like wings) and if they perform an act of righteousness they can be redeemed. I also believe they do not have a physical body, so cant be in the mortal/physical realm for long.

Wikipedia.org is where I search.

Like a name or symbol? I'm having trouble getting a name, but for a symbol I was thinking of using the Star of David, Crescent, and Cross. I feel that all my religion would require is belief in God, so in a way I've already got 3 billion members. ( I wish)
That would be awesome! -
One more thing I dont belive Jesus is divine.
