Religion

[rickyb]

in religion most people essentially do nothing aside from hoping to be saved.

its alot like politics where people do nothing and hope the politician helps them.

or capitalism where people lets the capitalist run their lives at work.

we know the outcomes for the last 2, and its likely that god doesnt exist or doesnt care about you.

You know nothing about scripture. You cannot have a perspective about something you know nothing about.

What's so precious is your sincerity when posting that!

If you have not experienced a Spiritual Awakening, you have no idea. Scripture is for teaching and guidance to a life spent in the arms of whatever Deity or Ideal (Platonic World).

Religions are pretty much not spiritual by their nature ... It's all about following rules of the society/religion when no one is watching.

That is quite a judgmental statement ... I can imagine many people think you live a pitiful existence.

What others think is not relevant or important ... unless they have a gun and use force.

i think i have post occupy and a few years after that when i started donating heavily.

Yeah ..I've listened to Mick Jagger and Roger Waters talk about blues and rock and roll so I pretty much know how to play a guitar now. Also.. I seen Crowe in Noah...It was like the story in the movie just leaped from the pages of scripture.

reading, listening, going to church...its all the same

but we have different understandings of the same thing.
