*raises hand*
I'm spiritual... but I've left "organized religion" behind when I realized (a) organized religion is SOMETIMES controlled by people who sincerely want and desire power for themselves ("In the Hands of an Angry God, for example)... Please note I said SOMETIMES and (b) never really felt what organized religion offered allowed me that spirituality that I can achieve on my own.
Plus, I have incredible faith in God... I don't align him with any specific religion... I just believe in God and that ALL religions have valuable aspects to teach about him (I also kind of believe that all religions are speaking to the SAME higher source, whether they like it or not... so, fighting religious wars are silly).
I value Jesus Christ and do believe he is a messenger of God... if not, he was at the very least, a valuable teacher and inspiration.
I live in the chapel of my mind... I meditate, I believe, and I'm spiritual. :-)
Wow, this is not really "hero's thread" is it? It's a religious discussion!
