What you can have is a direct relationship with God through Christ the assured promise of forgiveness of all sin through his redemptive sacrifice and any religious institution built around it is optional but not necessary. It doesn't get more universal than that. There's nothing cultural about this it isn't for a select or elite group and you don't have adopt a code of rules and laws all that has been done away with.
Come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant.

St Paul when he set out on his mission to the Gentiles had a universal religion in mind, one for the entire human race not based on culture, nationality or race, available to all freely not based on secret knowledge and not based on privileged castes and wealthy elites. If you already have a universal religion to begin with there isn't need to fix what isn't broken. What you do is fully embrace the truth the way and the light of Christ. He did all the hard work so we don't have to.

Giving a shit might do you some good and lead to some improvement who you are and what you do that's the much of the idea behind spiritual faith.

Yes! Believing in a magical sky daddy who poofed the world into existence, on no evidence, would really help to improve myself.

I love TJ's takedowns of that idiot's, um, work!
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Would that be the improvement of becoming a habitual liar, like yourself, repeatedly demanding others prove a negative, or present evidence when you're unable to produce any of the "volumes of evidence" you claim to have?
