1: Spirituality's core is selfless (egoless) Love
2: Science demands evidence, facts, proofs
Hence:
Therefore:
Example: inventing, producing mass destruction weapons like Atom bomb, hydrogen bomb, deadly viruses, deadly poisons or worse.
Scientists should think twice before inventing...
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...

I’d be happy to go into details on here too
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...

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?
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...
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.

Is your diet restricted by your religion or spirituality?
If so, what are you not permitted to eat? When are you not permitted to eat it? For what reason?
What are the implications of breaking this diet?
