No thanks. I don't believe in religion. It's just another label of division among people.

@SW-User Scientology is more than a religion. It gives you the ability to create new and better realities.

@n1ggerf4aggot so does psychosis.

@SW-User But you misunderstand. Calling yourself Scientologist is a privilege. You have to earn it by spending a lot of money on a Sci-Fi book where golden DC-8's fly souls from planet to planet.
@SW-User LOL

@n1ggerf4aggot hmmmm...still, no thanks. I hear what you're saying, and you are welcome to share your beliefs, but I believe that religion has too many rules. Most serve their God out of fear of eternal punishment.

@metaldog I don't mean it to be offensive; I just find religion limits human potential by its rules, which are basically another way of conditioning, and control.
@SW-User Ron Hubbard was a very clever sci fi writer, the basis of al the best 'religions' 😄
@SW-User You're right. Religion is man-made philosophy. It did not die on the cross to save us from our sins...Jesus did. Christian just means follower of Christ. So Christian faith stems from a personal relationship with Christ...not flawed mankind or his philosophies.

@LadyGrace thanks Miss Grace. I have not been to church since like, April, or so, but I do pray daily, because I believe in God, not because a man said I must. If I need God to be a good person, than surely, I am not.
@SW-User That's good, and the right attitude. I'm glad to hear you have a relationship with God. This nation sure needs prayer.
SW-User
@LadyGrace thank you, Miss Grace. 🙏🏽
I meant to also say that it's not about being good or bad, but you probably already know that. Some don't understand that we are not judged by our performance, as we cannot earn our way to heaven by good works, and are saved by grace, not on merit of works. @SW-User
SW-User
@LadyGrace truth!
@SW-User Yes, out of fear, instead of love. Serving God is done out of love. No one who loves God feels forced. It is done out of love and gratitude for all he has done for us and for His great sacrifice.
