The need to discuss and share and release and shit

[anthonyabidesdude]

Most of you are probably maturer fellas than myself, and I don't know why, but I really feel the need to share this profound revelation that I've had the past few days (I heard someone else use the phrase 'profound revelation' earlier)

Since about September 2011, I did some searching, religiously-speaking, for some sort of peacefulness. I grew up around Christianity, and I knew that was DEFINITELY not somewhere I wanted to go. I tried out several branches of Buddhism, weed, all sorts of shit. After a while, I decided not to name the way of life I was going with, just to go with it, and it was basically: chill, don't let things bother me, watch movies, yearn for peace etc etc.

A couple months ago I watched the big lebowski, and I fucking LOVED IT. Then I watched it again that weekend, and I started being a bit Dudey. Then I watched the film five or six more times, and then I found dudeism.

Dudeism and I shared a lot of similar ways of living already, but what I really really love, and I'm not afraid to say it many many times to everyone, what I really love it the community here.

Ease on,

Hey man! Welcome! I too disliked other religions for some time and was actually anti-religious for a while but then I found Dudeism and I finally found a religion that I could live with. I've always wanted to be a more easy going person and Dudeism helped me do that. So again welcome and we're all looking forward to having a few burgers, a few drinks, and a few laughs with you. Our troubles are over Dude!

I'm still missing the "and shit" part.

I'm still missing the "and shit" part.

I believe that's where the "religious movement" comes into the conversation.

In complete dude fashion, i'm going to repeat that as if it were my own, the 'shit' part was me being lazy instead of listing all the needs i guess
