Belief Systems

Posted on February 14, 2006July 19, 2006 by James

Earlier today, one of my professors – Sociology of Religion – made a comment that stuck in my head. He said, “everyone has a belief system, and if someone says they don't – they are not being true to themselves.” It's a thought (assertion) that really just 'hit' me. I'm not sure if he said it at the same point that my third cup of coffee kicked in, but I sat through the rest of the class just wondering – if that is true, what is mine.

I've gone on about things I “think” I believe in, or concepts that I think define who I am, or at least a part of it – but when I actually thought about what he said, I really couldn't pinpoint an answer to the question “what is my belief system?”

It's a month into classes, and already I'm stumped.
