I was wondering exactly what you believe in, when it comes to deities, nature, the universe/multiverse, spirits, the afterlife, deities/prophets ect.
I'm a Druid who believes almost all of the deities existed at one point in time While I think they are powerful and intelligent, I don't think they were deities or had a thing to do with creation of the Earth or universe. I think they are aliens other or other dimensional entities but not creators. I think they made us what we are but didn't create us from scratch. I believe this explains our unexpected jump in evolution when many humans in the prehistoric era and messed around with tools, looked different and didn't really have a concept of "civilization" yet when Sumer came, all of a sudden humans had a concept of math, science, magic ect, when before they were living in caves and had very primitive tools. I believe he deities of old had something to do with it, but I don't think it's necessary to worship them or offer "sacrifices" of ale, corn, ect. Simply learning from them and showing respect for them if they are a noble, ethical and morally decent deity.
I don't worship deities and I am more interested in working with nature spirits, like animal, plant and stone spirits, as I am an animist. I believe each soul is different and unique. I don't think we are all just part of a deity or inside a deity. I believe we are all made of the same stuff but not necessarily the same and are individual. I believe that while we aren't automatically connected, we can become connected. Such as with the Bible, where in marriage it's explained that the two fleshes become one.
I believe if there is a source of creation, there might be more and not just one source. I believe in the Otherworld but also afterlives and stages within those afterlives. I believe in the afterlife, karma and reincarnation. If someone did more good than bad in their life, they see other afterlives, see more of the universe, and have an easier time contacting mortals and reincarnate. I believe the universe was never really created and won't be destroyed as everything gets recycled into something eventually. If someone did more bad than good in their life, the accumulated too much negativity and kind of remain in limbo and end up suffering and when they feel remorse of their actions, they reincarnate but start lower on the totem pole, so to speak.
I believe in magic as well as science and that magic is another way of working with energy. I like plant magic and believe that working with both magic and science helps us understand more of the universe. Speaking of which, I think there is more than one universe and dimension.
I believe in working with energy and I am not interested in trying to bend energy to my will and command it to do whatever I wish as I believe it's ineffective and usually ends up in serious consequences. I believe every religion has its own magic but really as long as people follow the morally right and ethical path than it doesn't really matter what religion they follow.
What about you?
