    Ask me about my Spiritual Journey

    Hi guys, I have been on and off RF for a while so think I should reintroduce myself via interrogation. My spiritual background: I was raised Catholic. I defected after my first Holy Communion. I became an atheist. I questioned my stance after watching Total Onslaught by Walter Veith. I...

    Epiphanies

    This thread was inspired by @DharmaCatLamp 's thread entitled "Interesting Experience and Thoughts about Interconnection". I believe that he had underwent a deep and personal epiphany that felt him feeling connected to the entire Universe, as enacted by the rituals he was undertaking...

    What does ChatGPT say about your religion?

    As we all know AI is slowly starting to be more intelligent, more conversational, more human-like. Although, no human would ever know everything an AI already knows. However, ChatGPT, has been shown to give different responses to the same questions, and is able to conversate better than other...

    What is Gnosticism?

    In a previous thread I explained that I'm not just part of Earthseed but a gnostic on the subject of God, explaining that I know and understand the very fundamentals on how to create it. It seems to me that my very theology of Exaltism is essentially Earthseed Gnosticism. Earthseed teaches that...

    Poll: Syncretism in Pantheism

    Pantheism seems to be a pretty easy concept to understand, yet, I would argue that most people who self-identify as pantheist, panentheist, pandeist, or panendeist also subscribe to some amount of other theology or religion. In the strictest sense possible I consider myself panendeist, as in...

    Poll: Your Opinion

    I have to say, my opinions on religious matters has not changed at all, BUT, now that I have a place to understand and define my ideas better, I've grown spiritually because of it. This place kind of feels like a religious sandbox where I'm able to test new thoughts and ideas and slowly create...

    THEISTS ONLY: What Is the Name and Role of Your God or Gods?

    Pretty straight forward. I'll answer for myself. My God is called The Synverse. The Synverse is any medium which change can occur. The Universe is an example of a Synverse. A blank sheet of paper is an example of a Synverse. The Omniverse, or Brahman, or Ultimate Nature, is the highest degree...

    What Does "Religious" Mean?

    This thread was inspired by @We Never Know 's thread you can check out here. This is possibly the best video that helps explain what the term "religion" means. And yes, I know that what "religion" and being "religious" means are two different things, but both are intrinsically similar and...

    Poll: Religious, Spiritual, Both or Neither?

    I made this poll awhile back that asked the lovely people here at RF if they were a "believer" or a "skeptic", and there was a healthy amount of replies from both groups of people. In the end, however, believers slightly outnumbered skeptics 20-17. The thread was so famous that @The Hammer...

    Cultural Omnism

    I've been thinking about terms that help people understand where I'm coming from. Even though most people don't understand what Exaltism really is, if you break down its etymology it makes sense that I believe we are creating Gods. However, Exaltism is a very internal process, as widespread I...

    When You Talk to People Unaware About Your Religion, How Do You Describe It?

    Oh boy. To answer this question for myself... Almost everybody in real life knows me as a pantheist. And the reason why I describe myself as a pantheist is because calling myself that is easier than explaining Exaltism, Syntheism, etc. "I am a pantheist and believe nature is synonymous with...

    I'm new here- thanks in advance for giving my thoughts your time. I practice gratitude , and have small routines through my day to practice what I think is my spirituality- from saying thanks as soon as I wake up for all the blessings I have, meditating , to gratitude practices etc. But very...

    How religious is this forum?

    This forum is centered around the concept of religion even calling paths religious that arguably could hardly be considered as such. But how many of the participants of this forum see themselves as religious or as part of a religion or a religious community or ideology?

    Multifaith spaces in hospital

    Plans are being put forward for a hospital rebuild in my city. It will provide high level health care for a population of more than 200,000. A question has arisen as to the most appropriate space for worship and meditation in a hospital for a developed nation that is multicultural and values...

    The trinity and it’s false theology.

    You may be surprised to find out that the trinity doctrine does not accept Jesus Christ. It promotes a false gospel that ‘three separate persons make up God’ which is unbiblical. Therefore, it is not unusual to come across an apostate trinitarian who deny the teachings of Jesus Christ. When...
