It always seems to me that far too much research is needed to validate religious ideas...isn't it supposed to be the way the universe is supposed to run? The rules we are supposed to live by? Why is it so convoluted and hard to interpret in a way that doesn't persecute, stunt intellectual growth, discriminate and bring on violence? That was one of my initial problems with religion, I shouldn't have to learn a dead language or listen to fallible man to be able to live life as a God would want me to. I understand that when looking at the question from outside of religion these questions are much easier to answer, but from inside a theistic view why did it take so long for monotheism to develop, and why is it so hard to reach agreement?
My religion is the understanding of my world. My god is the energy that underlies it all. My worship is my constant endeavor to unravel the mysteries of my religion.
