I believe not in mans' defined Christian, Jewish or Muslim God. I used to, because clearly atheist are wrong based on spiritual experience I've had. But, as I have fallen from my Christian faith twice over the decades, I have grown stronger in my spirituality. With who or what? I don't know.

And that's too scary for religious people who dogmatically believe the doctrines that force them to assume I am playing with the devil, or possibly evil spirits.

I get it, and ya, it IS a dangerous area. If I didn't know years of Christianity, if I had not tried new age, native American, read the retarded ramblings of scientology, explored Buddha's teaching, etc etc then I would probably have fallen for another religious trap.

Man has fucked up spirituality, highjacked our connection to our own soul and relabel it God, or whatever deity that trends in your cultural background.

Instead, I listen to my soul when I go into deep breath work. I make up my own mantras because the act of separation from the hard coded mind is difficult to do without zoning out. And repeating nothing, pushing hard towards nothing results in stronger connection and clarity to something that could be described as God. It also feels like my father, and sometimes just feel like me, but the me that already knows everything...sometimes it's just a feeling of many people loving me, so I believe in what I know from my experiences and I'm ok with not knowing what it is.

One guy called it "the All" and that resonated well with me. I think the common theory that we are all a collective consciousness experiencing individuality could be what is actually happening.

That our bodies are biological avatars for instances of the collective soul of everything.

It makes way more sense than believing a man made book, heavily manipulated over hundreds of years by various cultures and power hungry leaders. No thanks, fuck the bible. I don't care what it says in Mathew 12 31:32, (obvious dogmatic hypocracy and speaks volumes to how the bible is just a man made tool to govern humans) but if I was to ever go back to Jesus or God, it's clear that it would be too late anyway.

Ah, feels good to explain it. Sorry that my words undermine the faith of billions of people, yourself included. I doubt you'll give up your faith for some random dude in the comments who changes his account every several months, But I learned a little bit about you over the years. You won't budge easy, yet you're open minded and really listen. You're probably slow and cautious to adapt, making you strong and steady in hard times. It's a preferred power set in my circles.

I'm more of a maven, people can't see I'm actually like you, but on the outside I look wishy washy and sporadic and half assed. I prefer to appear like that.
