    Whats a god but an idea

    What is a god? This is imperitive in order to know if god is real. In order to understand at all we must define things unfortunately. Otherwise the crusades and jihads start. Ive asked what is god for a long time. What is god in reality than the highest ideal. Gods are ideas in their highest...

    My thoughts your thoughts

    Ive read many people who strive for gnosis who take the early christian gnostics accounts of the demiurge to mean that judaism has no divine inspiration. This i honestly take as just nitpicking. Its kind of like how neopagans talk about "the All" or whatever that pagan wants to call it, and...

    Rejection of Pauline Epistles

    As someone who delved into several versions of christian theology. Whether people agree or not i see paul as the actual creator of christianity, and reject him fully. (No offence meant to pauline christians) After reading it sounds like Yeshuas reform movement was an offshoot tradition of the...

    aham brahmasmi --why so confusion ?

    different philosophies resemble diffent religions. advaita resembles buddhism while dvaita resembles christianity. i say dvaita schools of thought resemble christianity in the same way advaita resembles buddhism.

    aham brahmasmi --why so confusion ?

    Difference between Hinduism and Sanatan Dharma?

    "hinduism" is not necessarily vedik, although the majority of hindu religionS draw authority from the vedas. Hinduism includes a vast array of philosophies and points of view, i personally dont care about sai baba, but many devout "Hindus" do. i remember going to temple and my teacher liked...

    doesnt it get old?

    im absolutely not looking for consistencies.... you kinda made one of my points is that the people who listen to the "spirit" or whatever they want to label it, all have different opinions on it. geez people even fight over what gender to reference a genderless being. God or Goddess? i think of...

    doesnt it get old?

    you talk to him and get to know him. PRAY, this way people build a real relationship with him rather than a fake relationship made through book study. God speaks to us in our hearts, can you hear him? i could read someones facebook profile, i still dont know him. its not till i sit down maybe...

    New Deities

    hmm... i suppose you could look it up. its a well known phenomenon that neopagans tend to practice eastern religions for a time before going back to paganism with increased enthusiasm. im pretty entrenched in the pagan community in ohio and indiana. so like clockwork it tends to happen with...

    New Deities

    funny new religious trend, the majority of Pagans ive met in america study Hindu upanishads & other texts neo paganism has gotten a major leg up from Hiduism which is very similar to todays "neo"paganism(s) many wiccans study shiva-shakti philosophy and advaita. Paganism has become "Hinduism...

    How can God be timeless if.....????

    this can be reasoned out logically. if their is a consciousness outside of time, it would have to be intrinsic to whatever exists outside of time, this has over reaching metaphysical implications(but thats for another conversation) learning has to be done in Time, because learning is a process...
