    Religion is a Blessing in Disguise

    Thank you for your input. That's the ostensible purpose of religion, not the reality. But if I have to say that, it's not worth explaining! The intent of my article is not to slag religion itself, but to praise its social virtues. So I would not want to explain or debate anything about what...

    Religion is a Blessing in Disguise

    If religions didn't exist, what would the world be like? Before we answer that, let's examine some general character properties of people who choose to believe in their respective religions: 1. Religious believers engage in faith. They use their imagination to visualize a story that they have...

    Monotheists: How do you describe your God?

    It is neither an attitude, an opinion, or even a belief. God for me is an undeniable reality that I see in every pattern of every thing I perceive every single day. The word "God", or any other word at all, falls short of the true intended meaning, which cannot be expressed in words...

    Is understanding trapped by biology?

    The answer is more convoluted than a simple 'yes' or 'no' answer. In a way, yes, and in another way, no. Let me explain. The human mind is finite and limited. It is a prison of limits, a cage of understanding which prevents its curiosity from going too far from its previous boundary. But that...

    A Plea For Understanding

    The answer is more or less simple: There are many paths to God. Some paths take people through exoteric religion - such as Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, etc.. Some paths take people through more creative religious traditions such as the polytheistic views of Paganism or Hinduism. In essence...

    The Seven Deadly Sins

    All right, you got me. After I wrote that it struck me, "to test people, duh, why else run this sideshow circus carnival of dancing lights we call existence" So thanks, I needed that

    Luciferianism - Is This For Real?

    Recently, I met someone who claimed to be a Luciferian. Normally I don't take stuff like that seriously, but this person really knew their stuff when it came to Natural Law and spiritual/occult topics in general. So I was prone to listen to whatever they might have to share... And they shared...

    Is it possible to believe in several religions at once?

    Sure, I'll explain it. We must go at it systematically. First let's remember what Truth is: Truth is objective, meaning that is not based on the perception of human beings (which is capable of wavering). Truth is simply that which is. It is that which occurred in the past and that which is...

    Why monotheism?

    Examine your choice of words, previously. I suppose you think your insights into things are not obvious from how you phrase yourself? (I suppose you can be unaware of how to analyze words in this way, and thus think these things are truly 'hidden'. But that is a false belief on your part, if...

    Why monotheism?

    Well it was not my intention to be condescending, but what I meant by a discerning attitude is that you have assumed that beliefs are constructed solely by the self, which means they are ONLY an illusory construct that each individual 'decides for themselves'. Not only is this in opposition to...

    Why monotheism?

    No, I am a monotheist because of my faith in my beliefs. Because everything you think and harbor is a belief, you ultimately function solely on faith alone. Your logic and rationality cannot supersede it, it is impossible. You even believe in your rationality and logic solely because of faith...

    What Does Becoming One With God Really Mean?

    Yes, there is another meaning of this. In order to grasp it though, you need to be aware of some things. First of all, you are not a singular being necessarily - you are an inner trinity of three beings simultaneously experiencing as One singular being and Three individual beings at once. These...

    I believe God exists

    No, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that this infinite being we refer to as God is simultaneously existent AND non-existent, because of the nature of manifestation in a finite universe. Another way of putting it is that the non-existent portion of God's presence hides him from our...

    Should god -any- make sense?

    OP makes a good point. But the only way you can come to have a belief in your understanding of the creator is to examine creation for patterns that seem to indicate something about the intentions of the creator; for while the creator is infinite, His intentions were obviously finite, for He...

    How strong is your faith?

    I would say my faith's strength is 100%. I'll tell you why: We actually function solely on faith alone, and not one individual is exempt from this: We have faith that our senses and our perceptions are accurate, when in many cases that is the furthest thing from the truth (which we...

    Why monotheism?

    Monotheism is revealed through tracing causality to its beginning. I already posted this in another section of the forum, so I don't want to repeat myself again (it was a long post), but essentially, because everything was created, we know there was a creator, and since the finite suddenly...

    Monotheists: How do you describe your God?

    God is infinite. That means, without limits; not finite. This also means that to a mortal mind - finite comprehension - God is literally incomprehensible in any way, shape or form. This means that nobody knows the true name of God, or if God even has a name. We use the word God simply to refer...

    Is it possible to believe in several religions at once?

    In my opinion, all religions are based out of Truth, which is Natural Law, but then confounded with misleading dogmas that give people the wrong idea about some aspect of the world. So in unifying all the dogmas of religions, one only becomes very confused - one has to shed the dogmas, and...
