Dathu ![User Image](https://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y231/Dathu/Gaia/Onion/Cute-Onion-BrainEater.gif) Okay, after re-reading this, I think I understand what I didn't before.
If you had control over your beliefs then I could just suddenly tell myself to believe in god, and I would: Voluntarism.
But I can't because I haven't been convinced there's a god, so I have no control over what I believe because my beliefs are based off what I know. I can no more chose to believe in a god than to chose to see blue as red, pain as pleasure, or anger as happiness.
So, if I'm following this right. Then I do think I am now an Involuntarist. I think.
caustic 0_0 Personally, I lean more towards involuntarist. If you can actively choose, then is it what you truly believe?
Dathu, I swear you are a wordy version of me! But less hot. And more prone to bring back old threads.

![User Image](https://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y231/Dathu/Gaia/Onion/Cute-Onion-Blush.gif) I guess we're just made for each other "like Puzzle pieces from the clay." (if you can name the song that's from without doing a lyrics search, then we are made for each other) *Le Gasp.*
