i dunno ANNOA ..what you do have is spiritual belifes and they are valid in amonst this discussion as religous belifes, arn't they?

ANNOS QUOTE...I believe that love and kindness and service and being good to others is my spirituality I do believe in prayer as a way to finding your own solutions to problems. I believe in the power of positive thought.END QUOTE

i love practical spirituality weer peoploe manage to live what they hold to be true, its reallie refression wheen ever someone dose this belonging to a religion or not.
That connection between prayer and positive thoughts, finding your own solusion through it and in some way the positivity working....regardless of beliving in a god or not is exilent. i wouldn't agree that you don't have anything to add in this topic....as what you have just talked about is at the hart of religion/spirituality but do as you feel best.

and it is fun just reading and not joining in on some topics for long enough i read the writters stuff and not joined in becouse i didn't write, so though i shouldn't have been their and when i did it was fine. lol.
Thanks for jumping in on this one and doing something to help the situasion come to a good end...
