Why not make a true religion?

    Before you go too far with a true religion ask why Jesus never once used that word in connection with those who follow him. Ask why he would illustrate the way we would have to pray continually and never lose heart but it is a solitary journey--you are alone---as in Luke 18:1-8. He ends by asking "But when the Son of Man comes , will he find the faith on earth?"

    There is unity but do you find it through forced conformity or through respect and conversation? Faith is what Jesus talked about.

    How does love bind us without hurting?

    If I was sat down in front of the GB and they actually wanted to listen I know I could paint a picture of the true religion.

    The problem is that you are trying to describe something tht exists in your head that means something different to every person.

    Again, define "true". What is the "best" from every religion? Do we include the church of satan? What about the Church of the Subhuman? Judaism? Islam? Greek Mythology? Roman?

    Friggingconfused,

    I didn't come across right at all. :( I'm damned with sarcasm and it comes across the net like... well, it doesn't. Keep asking questions and I'll STFU. You're not stupid for asking them.

    Why havent you all joined together and made a declaration of independence?

    A true declaration of independence leaves no room for "joining together".

    my idea of the true religion is to give people the space to decide for themsleves what is open to interpretation. Do the greatest good for the greatest croud. The true religion will be perfect. We shouldnt have to overlook things like the JW's do because everything else rings true.

    Guess Im frustrated because I think I have a plan for the true religion to come about. But no skill to make it happen.

    I can imagine how Tesla felt about what he knew. It was simple physics to him. But magic to an onlooker.
