breathe and speak the words I AM. that's all you need do to realize the self

i had a dream that i was a dog and a black man before, but i woke up and decided it wasnt real

Pick your fairy tale.
I asked myself why do I exist one time then answered it by watching the sun rise.

7 levels of belief
1.00: Strong theist. 100 percent possibility of God. In the words of C.G. Jung, 'I do not believe, I know.'
2.00: Very high probability but short of 100 per cent. De facto theist. 'I cannot know for certain, but I strongly believe in God and live my life on the assumption that he is there
3.00: Higher than 50 per cent but not very high. Technically agnostic but leaning towards theism. 'I am very uncertain, but I am inclined to believe in God.'
4.00: Exactly 50 per cent. Completely impartial agnostic. 'God's existence and non-existence are exactly equiprobable.'
5.00: Lower than 50 per cent but not very low. Technically agnostic but leaning towards atheism. 'I don't know whether God exists but I'm inclined to be sceptical.'
6.00: Very low probability, but short of zero. De facto atheist. 'I cannot know for certain but I think God is very improbable, and I live my life on the assumption that he is not there.'
7:00: Strong atheist. 'I know there is no God, with the same conviction as Jung 'knows' there is one.'
level 7 babyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

There surely are great people in the church. There surely are great atheists.
No one is going to get it right, it's all about a happy medium.
When I think of organized religion, I think of the whacko nutjobs that go crazy with it.
IMHO that = BADDDD.

I just read the books and thought I want nothing to do with that much hate.
If anyone has any good suggestions for non hate based or hateful religions let me know.

I'm level 3-ish on that chart.
And Envix, that's a point that all too often gets pushed aside in all the debate about religion - most scriptures resemble, to some degree, ancient behavioral science. YHWH or "I Am" refers to a psychological construct, not some postulated supernatural entity.
It's truly astonishing to comprehend people are willing to kill each other and themselves over favored terminology, but I think they actually do.

Catholicism is showing declining numbers in america
people take themselves to seriously.. way more than half of the going to church is for the community not for their egos
everyone has their own agreements and disagreements with the scripture at nondenominational churches
