Scientology is the same way...and very interesting I might add. Just stay away from the Church of Scientology. The reading material is first rate though.

Yep, I like doing that too. I just express myself and beliefs as clearly as I can and do so without attempting to "convert" them to my way of thinking. More like, "I am very happy and comfortable within my spiritual beliefs, but nothing in what I believe invalidates your beliefs".
Most religions tend to be much more "either/or" about things so I enjoy being an example of something different that works for me.
Love and Light

It's possible you don't actually follow a religion.

Hi Guy's .
I would say that religions do have a great purpose In ones experience of life . I remember many deeply religious life times .
What springs to mind Is why Is there no need to attach myself to any religious system / organization In my present Incarnation .
What I had learnt along the way Is that attaching myself to any religious system would entail a continuos outward flow of energy via worship of some kind . How will that serve what I am ?
The big question Is “does an individual connect with the God within anymore so for being religious” . Does a muslim know of God more than a catholic? Does a catholic or a muslim know God anymore than a non-religious person?
Religion perhaps divides people rather than unites them .
So why Is there the need for religion again?? Perhaps the need / reason for why there Is religion - Is to show the Individual there Is no need .
