Makarinoooo, don't start harassing people on my post.

[NathanDavis]

that I am here, to give... as much as I can and give genuinely to those in my life that I love, and this is what truly makes me happy

that is not in the taking, nor being self-serving... so that's why I'm still with the ones in my life and I do have all the good and great with them and also because of them

none of them have ever failed nor have turned on me, ever... but if that were to happen (which I don't believe ever will) I won't take it out on them, their failures and wrong doings won't be mine, because my love for them is truly... I strongly believe all of this and this is what made me TRULY happier and got me out of all the downsides and the darkside we can all face in this life

[slatyb]

Probably the belief that other people deserve to be treated with kindness. I don't know what would cause me to abandon that belief. Most of my beliefs would change instantly if I were presented with contradictory evidence.

[Jaggermoves12655]

I am a mind of some sort. I am real.

Even if I’m in a dream or nothing around me is real. Something is having this experience. I am that thing. Whatever it is.

I don’t know, can’t imagine, how that belief would change. Perhaps something you know … completely super-logical that exceeds and clarifies things if I would suddenly get access to a higher form of intellect.

Like you know how many birds can’t tell it’s themself in a mirror. Perhaps like that. All of a sudden I, the bird, get it.

Uhm damn that's a good one...
As a non religious person:

I can't control life, I can only control my reactions. Like if life throws a brick your way you have no chance at all, cause life is cruel, you can only stand back up and make the best out of what is infront of you and well work with that and through that path

[melanieeeB]

Oh and nothing can bring me to abandon that fact lol

[Agape93]

I respect that. It baffles me how someone can easily throw away their deepest core belief. That's like me saying humans deserve to be enslaved.

[melanieeeB]

Yeah same, I guess people who throw away their so called "deepest" beliefs, aren't really standing behind that belief and maybe only picked it up cause of others? I'm assuming.. I don't know tho

[Agape93]

I agree. It shows a lack of spine and will, disgusting traits in my opinion

[melanieeeB]

Yeah agreed🙏🏼

[Changiis07]

That nothing is possible without the Lord in my life. As a Christian nothing can make me abandon what I believe and that is Jesus Christ the one who died on the cross for our sins. The one that makes my life better. I have more peace, joy and happiness when I put him first. When I worship him and only him. I more wisdom and discernment because of him.

[lightbulb27]

That Jesus of Nazareth saved me... from my fallen self... and saves those who believes in Him.

people coming back to life saying there is another way. I don't see it.

How to keep me on the track of being the best Christian I can be and the one I think God made me to be, that's a work in progress.

[BCRanger10]

I'd have to wonder how deeply rooted someone's belief is if there was something that could occasion them to abandon it. It's one thing if it would cause them to question it or to think about it. But to outright abandon it is a different story.

[BlueScorpio]

Jesus is king and lord of lords, He's the messiah and honestly nothing, I think the only thing that could stop me is having a lack of faith or doubt.

[HorggleThorp]

Not even killing me will make me give up my faith in God, Jesus and Holy Spirit. Maybe I’m overestimating my faith because I live in a somewhat free country but I really don’t think I’ll give up my faith.

[Derekk]

I believe that morality is a real thing, derived from reason itself.

To abandon this belief, it would have to be shown that morality is not an offshoot of reason, and therefore cannot be objective.

[jshm2]

That people like you are just shitstirrers.

It's more an attested fact than belief, these days. I have met many like you that demonstrate your behaviours.

[Agape93]

Lol I assure you hon, you haven't met anyone like me, because you know little about me at all:)

[PetiteBabe64]

@jshm2 yeah Beliefs aren’t Just beliefs To people it’s a damn Fact. What I believe is True because I believe it my thoughts are True how could it not It’s My thoughts my beliefs and Questioning what I know to be true Won’t work because I know who I am and That’s not gonna change. I know what you mean People take offense take it personally when someone tells them what they believe is A delusion human nature to Know things people don’t believe anything they know best just as Someone that tells you who you are if your ever wondering who you are they will tell you what you feel and why you feel that way even when you don’t even feel that way.

[PetiteBabe64]

Because beliefs don’t Exist Knowing exist Just ask the pastor He will tell you What’s true even when it goes against Scientific fact.

[Msputiton]

Oh hell naw. Ain't giving these angry people on here any ammo🤣

[Agape93]

Lol you can dm me, I already have more than enough ammo xD

[CountryWanderer]

That the narrative and teachings of Jesus as portrayed in the Bible is real and true. Part of that narrative being verifiably disproven, and my accepting that, would challenge that belief

[Chazmatazz269]

Ignorance is the bane of humanity.
I guess i’d have to observe that ignorance improves our existence more meaningfully than it depreciates it.

[PetiteBabe64]

To Abandon my Beliefs not gonna happen Your just gonna have to take out your gun and Put a bullet in my head.

[Sixgunsound]

The only constant in life is death and taxes.

Taxes to go away.

[call_me_scar]

That the main characters name in my favorite book is named jack as for what can change that probably a reboot

[JustiReno]

It’s my dharma to fight to survive.

If I got lazy and cared for, already see it

[Babygirl_S]

I believe there's no God and I need to see more bad people getting punished in order to change my mind.

[gag6474]

i wouldn't take anything to abandon that belief. they could give me the world i woudnt care lol

[admles]

That there is no god / gods.

One would have to reveal themselves to me directly.

[LordOfThePines]

Everyone needs love, safety and freedom. I will not waiver on this

[Zolly99999]

I believe in loyalty... nothing will take that away.

[fonduegirl]

That married couples aren't happy.

[TallAnon]

I don't believe.
