Furvey 5 - Religion & Spirituality

35. Is your furriness compatible with your religion?

I'm an atheist. Well, I suppose you could say I was on the atheist/agnostic border, in that I don't believe in any sort of God, but can't quite bring myself to say it's all a load of rubbish. And yes, it's entirely compatible with my furriness. For me, furriness is much more important than religion, so if they were incompatible, it would be the religion that would have to change.

36. Has your furriness led you to reconsider your religious beliefs?

No more than I generally do, although I suppose I've thought about things a little more. That's probably really a result of having come into contact with such a wide range of human beliefs as much as anything, though.

37. Have you ever communicated with an animal spirit?

Not as such... I've had occasional dreams in which rabbits important to me have appeared, and I've felt particular compulsions on occasion to act around rabbits in certain ways that I can't really explain, but I can't say I've ever felt a direct communication.

38. Do you believe that you were an animal in a former life?

I don't believe in reincarnation, so no.

39. Do you believe that you have an animal soul?

I'm really very uncertain about whether I believe in souls at all. For the purposes of argument, though, if humans do have souls, then I certainly don't believe they're somehow totally separate from those of all other species. After all, humans are animals too.
