I think they are more along the lines of being 'spiritual' and not so much 'religious' and there's nothing wrong with that. You don't have to have a label on your forehead to be saved or have in it well with the Big Guy upstairs.
I was thinking of that quote thing when I was scrolling down. You beat me to it. |

You don't know that. This is for theories and discussions, not hammering. |

I think he is what he wants to be and believes what he feels is right for him. Don't think he's that into organized religion. Maybe he takes parts of it that make sense and leave out the rest and just live off those little bits he thinks will do him good? Mybe...I don't really know... Many people are like that though... Like I'm Catholic but somtimes I feel a bit of a diffrent religion is more true than a part of mine. Though I can't speak I suppose seeing as I'm a religous mix myself not knowing what path I'm taking since my parent say I can make my own decision... I don't know... Just what I think. Maybe I'm really off! Oh well... lol |

| December 7th, 2006 at 09:28am We're all really off. This is just speculation because we're all obsessed freaks. Y'know? He may or may not have a religion but maybe he believes in god. Whatever. Say what's on your mind, n00b! |

Posts: 895 | December 8th, 2006 at 01:13am Yeah I think he just likes what they sybolise or how they look. He doesn't strike me as one who would have crosses in his house for religous reason, you know. Like he has the cross 'cause it's pretty. Maybe he doesn't choose a religion 'cause in the end he doesn't want to be wrong? Maybe... |

| December 8th, 2006 at 10:46am Well, as I said before, there's an article that says he and his wife have crosses and candles and rosary and stuff in their house because they really like Catholic symbolism. Y'know...being spiritual without being religious. |

| December 11th, 2006 at 10:17am Um...your convo here is real interesting, and I'd join in, but this is Billie's Beliefs and I don't want this thread to get locked, so can we talk about his beliefs? |

Posts: 92 | December 11th, 2006 at 11:55am I don't think it should really matter to us what Billie believes in. I mean his fans like him, not the religion. If Billie Joe was black I'm sure nothing would change, if Billie wanted to be... a woman... the teenies wouldn't love him as much but y'know... I've forgotten my point  .
*thinks*
Ah here we go.
We should all appreciate Billie for who he is, not for what his religious/spiritual beliefs are.
That's just my opinion though. |

That’s like me then  . I have a lot of stuff in my room that’s considered to be Christian symbols. It doesn’t go too well with my other stuff though like my posters, my swords and knives (decorative stuff, nothing you could harm anyone with) and my little dragon statues. 
Enough about me but what I’m tying to say here is that you don’t have to live by a religion to believe in a higher power. You can actually believe in the Christian God without being a Christian (if you get what I mean).
So Billie Joe could simply agree with a lot of things that has to do with Christianity without practising the religion. Or he may not agree that much but like the essence of it, the original thought or whatever. Or perhaps it just has stuck since childhood. If he’s like me at all being brought up as a Christian left a traces even if he doesn’t consider himself to be Christian. In fact, if he’s anything like me all the reasons I mentioned would apply to him more or less. Yeah… |

Hm...I never really considered a Christian God or a Muslim God or a Jewish God or a Hindu God. Y'know? I always thought it was just the same awesome supernatural dood up in the stars, but He has different words to describe him or different name. I think I get what you're trying to say, though.
He has that tiny sliver of belief that the things that are Christian symbols have some kind of relation to God. And he believes in God.
Also, I wanted to point out to you how confused I was the first time I read this post because it says "Christina". I had to reread it to realize it was a typo. Billie was raised as a Christina? That explains the eyeliner...  |
