I think i may have figured out my religion
 
For awhile now I've been fascinated with "death" for some reason. it started with me doubting the religious view I'd been raised with, which is that there is no soul. Then I started reading about NDEs, then on what heaven was like, and so on. After awhile I started to think of death as just a transition phase, but couldn't really find a belief system that meshed with my beliefs. I still believed in a creator and couldn't bring myself to become a pagan. But I couldn't believe in salvation through another parson again, either. Then I found spiritualism, and from what I've read so far, I think this may be it. :)

Keep reading and see how you go. Your journey is very similar to mine. I started out as one religion and it really didnt answer all the questions I had, infact they were lacking. Then I worked out a belief system of my own and later found out it was called Spiritualism, so the name came after.

Just read all you can and come to your own conclusions. Safe Journey!

Well in fact no belief system is it, you are already all that IS, no matter what you believe doesn't change anything, in fact belief systems only get in the way.

Good for you! I wish you well on your journey of discovery.

My buddy psycho is correct - belief systems won't cut it for you.

Stick with (Modern) Spiritualism where belief isn't needed as there is abundant evidence for those who will look....

good luck - welcome on board

Screw religion. It's filled with dogmatic beliefs that tell you to submit and obey or you will forever burn in Hell. While I am a spiritualist, I also consider myself to be a Taoist as I am very close to nature and believe wholeheartedly in balance. I have had metaphysical experiences and have been overpowered and felt the presence of ghosts. I see and hear them from time to time and know that experience is more then juat religion.
