However, we can and never will be able to get everyone to conform to one way.. this has no purpose, it is not anyones right or purpose...
Everyone is invited to have Faith in Reality. Those who attend will be considered to be living in Reality. Those who do not attend will be considered to not be living in Reality.

HAH!

Reality is not for everybody. eh?

That's exactly why you are wasting your time in creating a religion.

Silly person with religion creating hobbies!

i've never surfed in my life,
but if i did...

i would be in tune with the rhythms of the earth
flowing with the ocean
i would be getting exercise
and having fun
in a natural environment
living life,
and perceiving it
the way it truly is.

oh, but no...
reality is not for everyone.
especially not me, the surfer dude huh?

I agree everyone is invited to follow reality which math seems to hold in place for us. However, drugs can manipulate your reality. This is what I mean by different states of concsiousness. for example; Not everyone has the same "drug" state interpratation of reality.
Not really anything to do with drugs, but your pure mental abilities your brain can perform.
Your reality in terms of your consciousness, in reality in terms of what you can read out of a book from science research, is what I refer to.

Anyways.... Like I said, we probably wont completely agree because your consciousness is different than mine. but the truth basic that I yap about on here is this.

You are just as able to witness reality as I am regardless if you see purple eliphents throughout the day.. Truth basic says, we both are an I AM.
You see colors too, truth basic.

ne way. break time.

You bring up a good point here, You are correct Reality is relative to the observer.

I will structure My religion, in the same manner that we created Christianity. We will work in a group conscious to define what is Reality. This will be a group who share the vision that is the focus of this faith. The Ideals that are the majority of the group conscious will be considered to be orthodox.

This faith is to be dynamic so as our Reality changes so will our faith.

I will call my new Religion the "Faith in Reality" church
Seems your religion has already been largely invented.

By a couple of jewish guys.

That would be Baruch Spinoza and Albert Einstein.

And then Whitehead came to the party.

I like to throw in some Kierkegaard, just to salt it a bit. Why invent your own religion when there are so many perfectly good bits out there already?

Or you could be a Unitarian. What's the difference between a Unitarian and a Nihilist? At least the Nihilists believe in nothing. (The joke being that Unitarians just believe in nothing in particular, I believe. It's a bit cerebral.)

Come there is room for all in the most nebulous of religous non-dogmas.

TFS a theologian? I am truly honored, you are informed and well versed.

Pantheism is a form of Theology, Theology is reasoned discourse concerning God (Greek θεος, theos, "God", + λογος, logos, "word" or "reason").

It can also refer to the study of other religious topics.

Faith in Reality Church, did not exist, therefore I am creating it. Because there is no God figure at the center of my Church, Theology may not be the best term to describe what we do.

It has not yet been completely invented. I am the first to attempt It. I am an Inventor.

Many have come before me and have been meet with opposition. The only difference is I plan to succeed at my endeavor. I have chosen the middle of the American Christian Bible belt as a starting place, opposition will be great. Like AE I tend to stay with the problem longer.

You may call me what ever you wish.

However I do believe in something and that would be Reality.
