Fryer,
I've been a "Course" student for 30+ years. I facilitate a small ACIM Study Group every Sunday night, 6-7 PM (CST) both online and via Zoom. If you are interested in participating let me know and I'll send you a Zoom link.

Personally I don't believe any major religion has come close to the real truth.
I personally don't believe there are polarities, so "peace" as such would be a polar opposite of "chaos".
Change abhors a stasis. There really isn't such a thing in the universe that is static.
So there again total peace is impossible. Only in brief frames of time in varying degrees can anything close to peace exist.
A rock may seem peaceful to you! Yet it's relative to the changes you can never see. The vary atoms of that rock are certainly not peaceful at any given split second of time.
All you see though is seemingly peaceful. Yet that's not true at all.
Change rules! Change even changes itself, which no existing "religion" will tolerate. Name their favorite deity and ask them if the deity ever changes?
Change is the enemy of stagnancy of religion, which wants to keep everything the same.
So again, peace makes no sense. For peace doesn't want to change.
Many are looking at this from the inside out. And so their rocks never changed. Yet look at that same rock from the outside it's chaotic with constant change.
Yet look at the outside in, from it's totally, you can only see that change is all that matters.

I think it is mostly about altering your mind and staying positive for the most part.
