That sir, would be an impossibility as I have no beliefs.
I just KNOW.

Just like the Christians, Muslims and Jews.

Congratulations on being so enlightened that everythiing you know is True and for knowing everything there is to know.

You are free to close your mind.

No offense but isnt that the same statement all followers say about their belief? The fact that you say what you follow is not a belief but knowledge can be a dangerous statement and again one echo'd by every follower of faith.

I have my beliefs, I have my faith but one question I regularly ask is, "what if I'm wrong?"

I think one issue with New Age philosophy is people seem to follow without question because it fullfills their need to reject conventional religion and it is all warm and fluffy, puppies and flowers. I don't mean that to be condescending but I've yet to find any faction of NA philosophy which acknowledges the darker side of things, in other words, that there are dark forces at work. Everybody on this board obviously recognises this otherwise they wouldnt be here!

In establishing my belief, I take what resonates AND I apply the acid test, does it work? Does it stand up to scrutiny. I pick it apart. You must question EVERYTHING!

I agree completely with Arcora.

NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IS REAL, NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IS RIGHT. And those who say they do are fools and should be avoided

Thank you all for sharing your opinions with me in this matter.
I wasn't looking for a challenge or personal attacks.
Not one of us is right, except for ourselves.
I accept that we are all different and on separate paths.
None better or brighter than another.
I drop my sword.
Division is useless. Especially now.

Love and light to you all.
