Choosing a religion as a bodybuilder
As an aspiring bodybuilder I am having conflicting thoughts about religion. I thought about buddhism but Buddha seems sort of fat, don´t even get me started on Gandhi. Maybe the right way to go is christianity, Jesus sure can handle a cutting phase.
So, what do you think?

As a fellow perspiring bodybuilder, I'd suggest Satanism. It's done wonders for me and Marylin Manson.

Im atheist
Prohibition goes beyond the bounds of reason in that it attempts to control a man's appetite by legislation, and makes a crime out of things that are not crimes. Abraham Lincoln
I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.

Greek Mythology- with Gods built like Zeus and heroes like Hercules, Atlas no other religion compares.
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

why do you feel the need to start practicing a religeon anyway?
one of my favorite quotes:
"Religeon is a crutch for weak minded people that find strength in numbers."

Recent quote off of a religous sign outside their place of worship
"Good minus God equals 0"
If that doesnt say something about a religion I dont know what will.

Mm, you might be mixing shit up. Hanuman was intensely devoted to Lord Rama, and fought to rescue Sita (Rama's wife) when she was kidnapped by the king of Lanka. Originally Posted by MaxMirkin
