Why do you follow your religion?

Muffled

Jesus in me
I don’t follow a religion, but do follow and trust Jesus Christ because He said, “I am the way, the truth and the life… and He demonstrated His love and victory over sin and death. So I believe Jesus is sufficient for all my spiritual needs and eternal life.
I believe it is likely that you do religious things, like pray.
 
Why do you follow your religion?

I answer my question first:blush:

My religion is new age and omnism. I follow new age because I believe it is logical. I also follow new age because I think all religions have something beautiful and holy about them. I can't choose between the different religions, I can't do it. I love songs and worship from different religions. I feel belonging to many religions.

New age beliefs is that God's presense is everywere, that God's presense is also in the soul. Both the souls to human and souls to animals is divine because we are God's children. All souls is from the same source, who is God. And God are love. Because of that our souls is also love. Because of that all people are one. New age belief is also in reincarnation. I believe strongly in reincarnation. New age belief is that God has no religion. God is beyond religion

New age beliefs is also the belief in omnism. Omnism the belief that no religion is the only truth, but that truth is found within them all.
Omnists do not believe one spesific religion, if that was the case then it is not logical.

An analogy that support omnism is this:

Four blind men who discover an elephant.
Since the men have never encountered an elephant, they grope about, seeking to understand and describe this new phenomenon.
One grasps the trunk and concludes it is a snake.
Another explores one of the elephant's legs and describes it as a tree. A third finds the elephant's tail and announces that it is a rope.
And the fourth blind man, after discovering the elephant's side, concludes that it is, after all, a wall.
Each, in his blindness, is describing the same thing: an elephant. Yet each describes the same thing in a radically different way.

This was written by David Horner The Blind Men and the Elephant

Also almost all religions share this: belief in God, hell/heaven/reincarnation, holy souls or prophets, to be loving to others, prayers, ethical rules

.

I try.

But six is a lot.



2. The great 19th-century mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss called his field “the queen of sciences.”

3. If math is a queen, she’s the White Queen from Alice in Wonderland, who bragged that she believed “as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” (No surprise that Lewis Carroll also wrote about plane algebraic geometry.)

The more you become familiar with Quran, the more it becomes evident no one can speak or write like this but the Lord of the worlds. It's doors open upon other doors. It has ways leading to more ways. It's endless in changing form to the heart that is guided, and never stops being amazing. Always something to notice in it and learn from it.

I don't know what you are talking about. I think you underestimate the creativity of the human mind. People write all sorts of thoughtful, meaningful, and beautiful books. In fact, I would say I appreciate the Tao Te Ching more than the Quran.

Because I’ve seen God work in my life so I know He is real.

I've read many books. I know Quran is unique and no one can talk like that.
