Theists: would you view the truth?

[robvalue]

Let's say it was all perfectly normal stuff. All mentions of gods and miracles and resurrections were fabrications. Jesus was just some preacher who got crucified for being a nuisance.

I suppose the question is what actions do you take just because of the story, and what things don't you do just because of the story. Take for granted you stop any religious rituals and such. I'm interested in morality.

I'd love to hear all theists' thoughts on this.

If you take for granted that I stop any religious rituals (I assume that means also religious practices like prayer, no meat on Fridays, penance, etc.), then very little at all would change. I do those things because of the story. I would probably "replace" prayer with periods of quiet contemplation/reflection upon myself, my actions and relationships, and upon "being, itself".

I'm not sure any of the things I currently "don't do" would suddenly become more appealing to me.

Thanks for your answer.

I find it very hard to understand religious practices. I'd be very interested if you'd be prepared to talk me through why you do some of those things, in more detail. For me, even if I knew all those stories were true, I wouldn't do any of that stuff. I don't get the point.

Same question goes for all religious theists.
