| I want to talk to you a little bit about religion and | | | | they should believe in nothing. The fact is that |
| spirituality. I would like to point out that those are | | | | there is a Non-Physical being which is you and |
| two completely different things. I am one of the | | | | there is a Universal Power which is far beyond |
| most spiritual people there are, but I am not the | | | | your physical body. |
| least bit religious. How does that work? Very | | | | I know that is a lot to take in all at once but bare |
| simply in my mind but I know most people don't | | | | with me. Religion is not all bad, there are many |
| think the way I do. | | | | messages in it which tell us how to think and act |
| Religion was created by man. Although many | | | | and shows us vaguely what God is. |
| claim that these "men" who spoke to God told us | | | | I truly believe that most people have a huge |
| what God said it was still recorded by man. There | | | | misconception of what God, Heaven, and hell is |
| are only claims of people who talked to God and | | | | are. God is the Universal Power, The Higher Being, |
| nothing in religion can really be proven but I am | | | | whatever you want to call it. God is not some |
| not going to go in that direction. The point is | | | | mythological character thousands of miles into the |
| religion was created by man and not a higher | | | | sky calling of the shots of what goes down on |
| being. If you study history you can see how far | | | | earth. Many are lured into believing this false |

| were. Religion was set in place to govern people. | | | | God is not separate from you God is within you |
| That is the most basic way I can explain it. The | | | | and within everyone. Heaven was never meant to |
| people were not smart enough to govern | | | | be a place of the afterlife it was meant to be a |
| themselves and needed intense metaphors to | | | | place on earth. The same thing applies to Hell it is |
| teach them values and what is right or wrong. | | | | just a metaphor for a place on earth. Think about |
| Religion has been corrupted so many times over | | | | it...don't you know people who are basically living in |
| by evil kings who used the power of religion to | | | | Heaven and also people who are living in hell? |
| scare and control people. The original 10 | | | | When you are in pure positive alignment with the |
| Commandments were really over 200 pages long | | | | Universe,aka God, aka Source Energy whatever |
| but some king decided that it would be too hard | | | | you want to call it you are essentially in Heaven. |
| for the people to learn that many | | | | The same goes for when you're in pure |
| commandments so he narrowed them down to | | | | negativity and are feeling pure negative emotion |

| where religion has been toyed with over | | | | are no contradictory thoughts whatsoever to |
| thousands of years. It is like one huge game of | | | | what you are thinking. So you see heaven and hell |
| telephone and has been corrupted many times | | | | really aren't as serious and many think. They are |
| over. So religion is all screwed up now what? We | | | | just guidelines to show us how to live and how to |
| should all just turn atheist and believe in nothing | | | | think. Your thoughts are very important and your |
| right? WRONG! This is where most people screw | | | | emotions let you know what you have been |
| up. They see all these problems with religion and | | | | thinking. |
