I never said i can explain anything.... something i dont want to understand....
I grew up christian, but i cant call myself that anymore... christians are reputed to be very narrow minded (its like THAT, and no argument allowed)... i cant be narrow minded, i tried and failed miserably... so my religion has expanded to include much more than just the bible (make no mistake, the bible is still a foundation in my life), but i cannot exclude the koran, i cant exclude budist teachings, there are loads of religions i cannot exclude in my life. (i cant become a budist EVER though... the food is just EEEEEWWWWWWWW)
I believe that in essence, most religions(of good nature - not talking evil here) have the same basic core. Men then went and added rules to the religion according to their point of view.... and its those rules that i cant accept.
In essence, i follow good, i believe in a higher power of the same good nature. I believe he HAS the power to make everything better. I also accept that there is evil, but i do not follow it. I take the good from every religion and accept it, but i deny the rules any value in my life.
I think there are a lot more people that feel the way i do.... christian rules are just too narrow minded, they restrict too much and dont allow for anybody to THINK and make up his/her own mind.... its black and white, between 2 lines.... most my life i dont live between those lines, how can i keep to rules designed for a life i dont have????
But as to my previous post, i do believe that god has the power we allow it to have in our lives. Other religions teach this, i dont think there is a difference in truth. You dont need to be a christian to have God in your heart... You only need to walk the right path.
I loved the phrase out of matrix (IIRC) "THere is a difference between knowing the path, and walking the path." Most religions KNOW the path, it doesnt mean they walk it...
