Would you Join the Church of the Jedi?

Many people don’t take this seriously, thinking a religion inspired from a movie is just as fictional as the movie. But, what is a religion, if not something inspired by something else, essentially.

How far is it from Pagan/Wiccan/Witch ideals? There is a lot in common including:

  • A belief in the force. The force being a term used for this religion in particular.

A Religion About Gaia and Stewardship of the Earth

I’ve read a little about Church of All Worlds. It seems to get a variety of descriptions and definitions. But, I believe it is a religion based on caring for the planet, the Earth and Gaia/ Gaea. It is interesting to read more about. I also believe caring for our planet, stewardship of of resources, the animals and plants is very important, necessary.… Read the rest

Do You Believe in Ancient Aliens?

The idea of ancient aliens is really interesting to me. I do think it is believable. But, beyond that, who knows. No one still alive would know.

Atheists Think Differently

Atheists don’t believe in any god or goddess or combination of either. It’s a bold choice. Like playing without a net when it comes to your beliefs about death and what comes next. Many people ‘get religion’ when death touches their lives. They become afraid and want something to believe in. Something that has power over them, something bigger than themselves, something that can give them possibilities rather than just an end to life.… Read the rest

Do you Believe in God and the Apocalypse?

There is talk about the Apocalypse due to signs in Revelations in the Bible, or prophecies by other people in history. I don’t believe in any of these. Not that I don’t think the planet is in trouble. We are putting a lot of stresses on our ecosystems and our resources. We do need to focus on making things better, fixing what we can and saving what we haven’t already ruined.… Read the rest
